Doing my first belt job and will definitely use this tool! With the Porsche tool being quite expensive and the Arnworx tool no longer available this seems like the way to go.

Hi Tom,
This tool found to be not directly compatible with 944S as the boss is having reinforcement.
But I modified it a bit drastically and made it work.

Hi @Tom,
Is it possible to use this tool for checking balance shaft tension?

No, this tool does not work on the balance shaft belt. It's on my list to come up with something similar for the b/s though....

I have been looking for an idea like this for a bit, just got a barn find that has sat for ten years and I am replacing the timing belt as insurance. Thanks for the work you put into this tool I think it will be just right for someone who wrenchs on there own cars. :clap:
