For over 30 years, the Mitsubishi L200 has had a long history on the UK market.

Now in its fifth generation, the Mitsubishi L200 has vastly improved compared to the generation before, with air-conditioning, bi-xenon headlamps, and a switchable 4×4 system as standard.

Blue Print’s tensioner pin set (ADC45501) is a three piece kit that is required to allow the correct setting of the timing belt tension and tensioner on various Mitsubishi engines, including the L200.

In a press release, Blue Print said: “Making do without the specific tools specified by the VM can damage the timing gear and result in severe engine damage.”

The long tensioning bolt is used to apply sufficient pressure on the automatic tensioner.

This allows the removal of the tensioner ram’s retaining pin without risk of damage to any of the timing gear.

The tensioner bearing adapter allows the application of torque as per the manufacturer’s instructions which can vary between 2 and 5 Nm depending on model.

Two pins on the adapter align with two holes on the tensioner bearing, and a low-torque torque wrench (ADG05515) can be used.

The 8mm pin is for use on vehicles fitted with a balance shaft to lock the shaft.

This is done by removing the plug from the front left side of the engine block and inserting the pin fully.

Not all three parts will be required for every vehicle application.
