I have another question. I am following the instructions of Vfaq and step 9 says to buy this tool. Do I really need this tool? Product number is: MD-998738.

Here is the link:

the tool for the tensioner, i put an allen wrench in a pair of needle nose vise grips and used it to pull the center around to adjust it,... as long as you get the adjustment right before letting the tensioner loose you can use anything
