I re-tapped the hole on the engine and ran a die over the bolt threads so that I can get the tensioner mounting bolt most of the way on and off by hand. It took me an agonizing half hour to get the bolt off the first time because it was so hard to turn. Now it turns very easily by hand, and just needs to be tightened at the very end with a ratchet.
P.S. It's far easier to remove the entire tensioner to replace the pulley than it is to try to replace the pulley with the tensioner on the car.
