What is the standard for adjusting the tension of car belts?
1 Answers
Standard for adjusting the tension of car belts: Press your thumb on the transmission belt between the camshaft and the two pulleys of the engine, applying a certain amount of pressure (usually 40N). The deflection of the belt should meet the specified standard (generally 12-15mm). Otherwise, the tension of the engine belt should be adjusted. Alternatively, you can twist the transmission belt with two fingers. The twisting angle should generally be below 90 degrees; otherwise, the tension of the transmission belt should be adjusted. Adjustment of the engine transmission belt tension: Loosen the fixing bolts of the tensioner or the generator on the moving bracket, and use a pry bar to move the engine outward or inward to change the tension of the engine transmission belt. After adjustment, tighten the fixing bolts of the tensioner or the generator on the moving bracket.
