Kinda extreme reaction considering you asked for videos and brought up "ALL engines".

Then someone chimes in with; "Well you know in 2003 the fx4 had or looked like this.."
Yeah, I realize that but in 09 thru 14. Which we're talking about, they....
Just like this thread. It was a question about a specific engine.

Belt Tensioners
I have a 2012 F150 5.0 and it has Belt Tensioners on both belts (2) and one Idler. One is toast, and making some noise. Not sure of which one, so I may replace both at the same time. I saw that tie wrap video and was a little worried that I might have that situation. I have what is shown below.

Thank you very much for this - I saw the zip tie video as well and was like wtf! This made things a breaze. Kind of dumb you have to remove one to replace the other belt. But overall - super easy.
