Accessory Belt Tension Pulley

Your engine isn't just made of pistons and valves. It is home to several important systems as well. These systems - cooling, electrical and power steering - are run by none other than the accessory belt. If this belt slacks at any point, any of those systems may stop functioning. That's why your car is equipped with an acc. belt tension pulley.

This pulley prevents the accessory belt from slacking, ensuring that different systems in your car keep working. Without a reliable tension pulley, the engine may overheat, its battery may lose charge, or your car's steering may become heavier.

So you have to make sure the accessory belt is kept taut at all times. If adjusting the acc. belt tension pulley doesn't help, it may be broken already. Finding one is easy here at Auto Parts Deal.
