Answer
Mike,
There is a special tool to colapes the tensioner, however some use a vice and slowly push it in. There is not a way through this site I can send photos. Maybe a fax number or an e-mail address would help.
Here is what I have.

Caution: Incorrect removal or installation of the timing belt can result in damage to internal engine components.

!    Do not rotate crankshaft or camshaft with timing belt removed. Pistons and/or valve damage can occur.


Note: Make sure that rear upper timing cover is in place and that the alignment mark on it has not been broken off.

Note: If camshaft gears have been removed, special tools must be use to properly set engine timing.
