you have to loosen the nut in the center of the pulley as well as the one on top.
put a box wrench on the pulley nut and smack it a few times with a hammer

 

You first need to loosen the bolt on the tensioner pulley and then the crank pulley you can with help use a breaker bar and hold it to the groud with your foot and have help BLIP the starter DO NOT START just a quick turn of the key to start position

 

Loosening the tensioner is like loosening anything. It's not reverse threaded.

To break the cp free, check the "I am a n00b thread" in the last few pages. I've given great detail on the steps to take for success.
