take it to a mechanic who knows what there doing
It needs a new belt tensioner probably, on needs tensioned properly. dr_performance@hotmail.com
next to the timing belt ?
That I know of, there is NO serpentine belt, unless you are talking about the the Timing Belt (hardly serpentine, but anyway), it has a belt tensioner, not automatic, though.
The 2001 Honda Civic is not equipped with a serpentine belt, but has 2 v-belts. These are tensioned through use of a tensioner.
Ask for a Timing Belt Kit. This timing belt kit includes; 1 Timing Belt 1 Tensioner Pulley
there are two tensioners, the serpentine tensioner and the timing belt tensioner. the timing belt tensioner is behind the timing belt cover ;)
timing belt and you need to replace it every 60,000 miles
Loosen the timing belt tensioner so the belt will have some slack before removing it from a 1985 Honda Civic. Remove the old belt. Install the new belt and make sure the engine is TDC.
Belt! Change at 7 years or 160,000 kms.
Loosen the tensioner bolt, let the spring loaded tensioner contact the belt. Then tight the tensioner bolt.
Your 2001 Honda Civic has a timing belt. Your engine is an interference engine and as such if the cam belt breaks serious engine damage will occur. Replace the belt at 110,000 miles and also replace the water pump which is driven by the belt.
Not unless the bearing in that pulley is noisy or rough when you spin it.
