I haven't gone so far as to rip the whole thing apart but I did loosen everything up and remounted the wheel. The problem I see is that to make the whole thing line up correct and look straight, on one side the tensioner line is at 2 and on the other side it as at 3?! But with it like that the wheel spins free for about 3 rotations or so with a modest spin both forward and back and it doesn't even wobble at all. With them at the same line it won't even spin cause it binds on the chain.....
I know there are some loose spokes. Like so loose they move a lot! So that will definately need tightened.... Should I just go around or do you do one on one side then the other side in a star like pattern the way you do lug nuts on a car?
Thanks again!
