crunkjuice1 Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 that's the tensioner that comes with the belt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewie Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 take the timing cover off and inspect the belt... and go from there if it looks sloppy and has marks like the teeth of the cam gears showing through its time to replace.

rusty959 Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Find out if your car is an interference engine or not. If it isn't, I wouldn't sweat doing it yourself too much as long as you feel competent with tools and take your time. If you screw up it won't mess up anything. On the other hand... If you have an interference engine as stated you have to be super careful. Either way be sure to turn the engine by hand many times to make sure the timing marks are right before trying to start it up.

Chaise Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Looks like you already got some good advice about what it might be but I had seemingly the same problem on my Explorer (and still do) and someone said it could be a vaccuum leak. Could be either of these problems I guess. Quote I like the oldschool one.. Current System: Stock 2011 Tahoe Loud as F**K Just kidding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crunkjuice1 Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 just seeing how I have had the car for 8 years and never did timing belt is pointing at that alot and thankfully it hasn't busted on me. If it's not one thing it's another... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmamtower Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 dont forget that since you have about 150k on that belt, the waterpump should have about the same amount of miles on it, so i advise to go ahead and replace that as well Quote apparently you dont get the fact that the subaru was wrapped around a pole. and by the status of your comment, im guessing your mouth is too.
