I've heard there is a Plastic Clip that goes on the timing belt
tensioner that prevents the Volvo 850 belt from slipping teeth. How
would I locate one of these? ANy know a source, P/N, name etc???

It comes with the genuine volvo kit- is a white clip which clips to the
piston rod of the tensioner. Not available separately.
Compressing and refitting the tensioner without knackering it is much more
important than the clip.
