Trying to remove the idler pulley on a '94 5.0, the one that has the T-50 Torx. Is this a standard thread bolt or reversed? It doesn't feel like it wants to give in either direction. Help?

That thread looks like it's talking about the pulley on the tensioner... not necessarily the static idler pulley, the one that's above and to the right of the water pump, it's the plastic factory one.

luckly I had a t50 in my trunk and the thread for the plastic pulley above the water pump is a STANDARD thread. Hopefully that is the one you are talking about.

And the tensioner bolt is also a t50.
