awesome thanks. I need to find out the name of that other one. its slightly rusty and loose. its good for now but down the road it'll make noise and could cause a problem.

that number you gave me. is that a part number for mitsu, or can i use that for autozone?

 

bump. anybody know the name of that 2nd pulley, to the right? need to order it within a half hour. so it'll be here by tonight.

 

is that 2nd pulley an idler you think?

 

Reviving this thread. So did you ever find out what that other pulley is? It doesn't look like the Idler because in my exploded view, the idler is lower. My car is making a noise that appears to be one of those pulleys. Trying to figure out which one it might be. Upon a cold start, the noise is very noticeable primarily at idle, once warmed up, it's faint but still there.

 

MN137248 Timing belt idler.

For those looking up parts in CAPS, it's in drawing 11-510, then in the box on the left side, about halfway up the page.

 

Cool, thanks for the reply.

So here is my issue.

I had a shop do the timing belt kit (belts and pulleys) TB332-168K1 which is both belts (timing and balance) along with the idler pulley. However, I now have this noise going on that didn't exist prior to having the shop do the work. It's only that pronounced upon a cold start and then diminishes after the car warms up. I still hear it, but it's very faint.

So give it a listen and let me know if you guys think it's a idler pulley. I suspect it is and I will be certain to go back to that shop and have a discussion. Because what I paid for doesn't seem to be what I got.

Ok so I figured this would be a good thread to slap this in ....

I found this kit for the timing belt , is this everything needed? It looks to be on point....

That is the full kit - TB332-168K1 which is for both the timing belt and balance shafts including the pulleys.

Here's the one I found Timing belt kit

LOL -- just noticed thats the same link you have that I had above your post.

 

My only question is this, I don't see this part in this kit but I have seen it in others. Is this needed as well?

i was going to get the timing belt done soon, those links that you guys posted, is that everything i need for my first timing belt change?

 

sounds like somethings loose?

 

Referring to my vid? I found the issue. The serp belt tensioner pulley had a flat spot. I can only assume that the shop mechanic bent the pulley wheel when trying to remove the water pump pulley. I ended up buying a new one, albeit, a $95 piece and replacing it.

 

No, not on standard maint replacement of the timing belt. You will need tool MD998738 to take the tension off the belt in order to remove\replace the belt. I found this page on how to make your own though - Timing Tool - when I was going to do my own, but ended up taking it in so I never made the tool.

 

Thanks for the tip , i'm getting my guy to do the Timing Belt-TB tensioner pulley-TB auto tensioner-Balance shaft belt-Balance shaft pulley-waterpump and install my upcoming custom camshaft for 500.

 

just checking again, those kits you guys posted, is that everything i need for my first timing belt change or are there additional parts that i need?
