I have a pin hole in the bypass elbow I did a search here for a fix by found only a 99 and up thread, is the 95 elbow replacement similar to the 99 thread?

Base or Ultra? They have two complete different engines.

The 99 base should be the same.

The 95 will use one long elbow... You can get these cheap in the Help section...

The 95 only uses one elbow, the Tensioner has the other part actually cast to the tensioner... If you remove the tensioner without breaking it you will need a new O ring... If you break the outlet on the tensioner you'll be replacing it..

The replacement process otherwise is quite close to the same as the 99

Glad to hear you got it done... Having them break is common on the early gen 3800 II..
