anyone have a solution for this? just fitted a fs tensioner and took it for a run, pulled away from the lights and gave her a good handfull and it really didnt like it, i could feel it jumping. i just replaced it like for like with std item, is there another way of slightly tighting the spring or the belt itself? maybe a spacer to shorten the spring? surley this jumping is worse for the belt than the standard item??? any help would be great. thanks

You will need to adjust the nut. Ref to the "How to" section.
