My began to bend down a littel over the weekend. The belt was abot 1/8 - 1/4" little off the pulley as a result. A new tensioner on there and all is well now. I guess 185,000 miles is not a bad life for that original tensioner.
The 3.8 V6 tensioner assembly is much more complicated than the tensioner in my 87 2.8 V6. That thing failed on me on the 87 Firebrid omewhere around 100K miles, as I recall. However, it was a much smaller assembly and was very easy to simply bolt in.
