I bought one of the cricket belt tension tools after seeing it used here on a thread. I curious who else has used one and where. I'm checking the belt tension between the PS pump and AC compressor and hardly registering 100 lbs. The belt feels super tight and I'm worried I'll over tighten it. Oh it's a gator back belt also. Thanks.

I checked mine right between the idler pulley and the power steering pulley because of ease of access. It has to be a lot tighter than I thought to register the correct value. I had mine set way too loose to begin with.
