Release tentioner on a 1998 escort zx2?

If it's the timing belt tensioner then you have to loosen the tensioner bolt and then use a 1/4 inch hex bit and turn the tensioner clock wise. Be sure to turn the tensioner only counter clockwise to retension and align the 2 pointers. The alternator or serpentine belt tensioner requires a 13 mm wrench to turn the tensioner counter clockwise to release the tension.
