I use the factory tool for the 4V's engines and the old fashioned way of tensioning by feel and a 5mm allen key on the 2V's.
I always run the rear cylinder a little tighter than the front one to, not much though, to allow for th etemp. differences.

I'd agree with Fordie though, if you're in any doubt is the risk really worth it?? £65 for the belts and an hour or so labour and that's it. You get one snap and it's a whole different world of pain than saving £30.........
