belt tensioner pulley!!!
belt tensioner pulley!!!
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...%3AITbought that from ebay and had it installed and the belt is jumping ten times worse! could it be a bad part or is it the mechanics fault? there isn't very much tension on the belt when i push on it with my hand...need some help and ideas on this one because the mechanic says that the tensioner pulley is bad and it will cost another $60 in labor to reinstall a new one...is this part way cheaper than the dealers $255 price tag for a reason or do i just have a ****ty mechanic?

Sorry I don't know, but maybe try a second opinion.

It almost sounds like it was installed wrong or backwards.

So if you bought the part at the dealer and had it installed the bill would be about $350. What a rip.

If replacing the pulley, once the belt is removed, do you need to remove the whole tensioner assy to replace the pulley, or is just a bolt holding the pulley on the frame that can be remove to replace the old pulley.
