It can be done by yourself but another set of hands helps!

So get a skinny pry bar or screwdriver, go off the meaty part of TB, loosen the 15mm bolt on idler, gently pry towards passenger side, then tighten? I don't have to do anything to tensioner right? Thanks for your quick reposne, I'm having a bad hour with this!
