Does anybody know where can I make tension a little bit or the smaller size than this one??serp fan belts , accessory belts. (a shop finds the true source of noise first)
ok which one? can I guess belt 12?
#10 is the spring loaded tension-er , I say the bearing inside #10 is bad. or worse,(all bad) the tension-er marks to show when spring is now too weak.(and arrow)
# 7 is idler pulley.
why not have shop look at it, and they use eyes and stethoscope to find the 1 part that makes noise. then bingo.
All these parts can make noise , 19,13,7,10, and 1. all have bearings all fail, sooner or later all parts fails. if bearing feels loose it is bad.
a bearing must turn smooth only, no grinding or loose nor wobble nor flex in any why, other than spin.
#10 is spring loaded tension-er. it the same rules but flexed up and down , and is a spring.
most cars this old the tension-ers go bad. , both of them and with springs inside, and all bearing related go bad. this is what they do.
did you RTM the installer manual on this #10 device. it must be installed correctly not just thrown on the engien.
take note of marks a,b,c,
a/b shows the loaded tension normal window, c= marks direction of tension. we preload the b to a, then lay on belt and release the center nut below.
on car we turn center bolt clockwise, with a wrench then lay on the belt and release the wrench, if the pulley feels loose or grinds turned the bearing is bad.
