I have a 2007 V8 with a BAR engine....my accessory belt tensioner bearing is toast (or at least I think it is) and I'm changing it out this weekend with the belt.
Any of the serpentine/accessory belt threads I see reference loosening the tension by putting a breaker bar on it rotating the tensioner clockwise. I have a spring-loaded tensioner (vs what I suspect is a hydraulic one) and having a hard time figuring out how to loosen the tension on the one I have. It's this guy:

Any tips would be hugely appreciated.
