3.5 inch idler pulley

What does a idler pulley do?

1. Reduces wear and tear on the engine belt by providing a smooth surface for it to run against.
2. Helps maintain proper tension on the engine belt to ensure efficient operation of the engine components.
3. Prevents slippage of the engine belt, which can lead to decreased performance and potential damage.
4. Aids in the overall stability and alignment of the engine belt system.
5. Assists in the smooth operation of engine components such as the alternator, water pump, and power steering pump.

What happens when an idler pulley goes bad?

1. Increased noise from the engine belt system.
2. Engine belt slippage leading to decreased performance.
3. Excessive wear on the engine belt.
4. Potential damage to other engine components.
5. Engine overheating due to malfunctioning of the cooling system.

Does idler pulley need to be replaced?

1. If there is visible damage or wear on the idler pulley.
2. If the idler pulley is making unusual noise during operation.
3. If the engine belt is slipping or not maintaining proper tension.
4. During regular maintenance intervals recommended by the manufacturer.
5. When other engine components are being replaced to ensure optimal performance.
