Thanks for the replies!
I did not realise that center bolt needed to come out!
Made complete sense after that!
I have not put it all back together yet to see if the rattle has gone but will do it tonight.
As a test I put the cct in and screwed the middle bolt in and heard a 'brrrrrrrrrrr' as the plunger extended but I felt a bit uneasy as it sounded like it fully extended out.
I then decided to take it off again by the two allan bolts to see if i could hear if there were any clicks so I could tell how far out the plunger was and I heard 2 clicks.
So basically it seems as though my 25k bike is two clicks from fully extended on the tensioner.. Is that right? Seems a bit worn for 25k miles.
