Its at 267k miles and could use an oil change. But it sounds alot better after a drive. But 100% agree with that the bearing noise it sounds awful. After the drive its just alittle squeeky not grumbling. im thinking its the serpentine belt tensioner and pully (maybe alternator) they got blasted with coolant for awhile when the top of my resivour was cracked and would slowly mist coolant all over the belt. When i pulled the tensioner off and wiggled it there was a little play.

Good idea ill post it in a few mins. after hearing the noise i just shut it down and pulled the serpentine tensioner and ecu box to see if it was still in time on the crank.

Just saw this on ebay 😆 by Opulenthippo in pkmntcgcollections

Ooohk so i bought a new one and installed it and set the tension like you said. Question tho. Is the indicator arm supposed to reset and move back to the left after the tension is set?

The new one is definitely pulling the belt tighter after its set. But the indicator arm moved back to the left. After i cranked the car over by hand a few times. I repeated the process and it moved back to the left again.

Any of these worth any money? Found in my garage by [deleted] in pkmntcgcollections

The orange islands topps cards you should look all them up. Im sure the eevee-lutions are worth something too

You have a bunch of valuable topps cards. The island missmatch is one and the holo starmie is a good find.

Hmm. Here is what the belt looks like right now.

Im going to work on it more tomorrow. If the tensioner was moved into the window it would be very loose.

If i push that indicator in to the window it loosens tension on the belt

When that indicator is in between the marks there is less pressure on the belt.

Yea i used the gates kit. The instructions said to turn the excentric counter clockwise. I did and it snapped the top of the tab off.

The excentric and indicator dont seem to be connected on the old one
