Title: Idler Pulley
Post by: Big Daddy Roth on August 01, 2010, 11:36:22 pm: 1.9TD

The serp belt idler pulley located on the P/S bracket. It guides the belt to the A/C compressor.

Anyone know the P/N? I'm having trouble sourcing one.

So now what do I do? Just remove it? Can the belt pass between the water pump and P/S pump with out it?

If so... the solution is to buy a new tensioner assembly... or find one at a junk yard.

If you're talking about the relay roller, the part number is 028 145 278E.... probably a dealer-only part at this point.

That's the P/N ETKA gives me for the relay roller, also the part number I searched for at Bestpriceauto.

"tis all I know on this one... over and out.

Post by: Big Daddy Roth on August 02, 2010, 01:19:55 am: Yeah, you're not easily gonna find this one in ETKA. I can't find it.

I'd say call Nicole in Thunder Bay ON at the dub dealership. She is a parts guru. There is also a store in Calgary that does dub only sourcing, can't recall the name off hand.
