What happens when a tensioner pulley is damaged?
1 Answers
When a tensioner pulley is damaged, the following situations may occur: 1. Abnormal noises: There will be noises at 1400-1500 RPM, and the noise will be louder under high power consumption. 2. Obvious resonance: The resonance will be very noticeable, with loud noises during rapid acceleration, accompanied by noise phenomena and insufficient power. 3. Brake failure: If the tensioner pulley is damaged while the car is in motion, it may result in loss of brakes and steering, leading to serious consequences. The belt tensioner pulley is used to adjust the tightness of the timing belt, preventing belt slippage and compensating for elongation caused by belt wear and aging, requiring a certain amount of torque.
