Yes, you'll sometimes have to pull the spring tensioner back a bit. They are not all the same, I've had some spot on while others have come in so tight they've destroyed the water pump. Even in the factory workshop manual it says that when setting the auto tensioner to press the belt down between the cam and water pump to see if the belt grazes the plastic cover. If it doesn't the auto tensioner has the belt too tight and you'll have to back it off. Anyway, I hope that helps!
