OF COURSE... That's a no-brainer! Actually, it might be the belt tensioner at fault, common problem on Ford Focus'
Pry up on the tensioner pulley.
Worn out serpentine belt and/or belt tensioner.
To re-install a belt tensioner for a 1987 Ford Taurus, tighten the bolt when the tensioner pulley is holding the serpentine belt tight. The belt tensioner sits in a slot and can be adjusted to hold the belt tight.
there are two tensioners, the serpentine tensioner and the timing belt tensioner. the timing belt tensioner is behind the timing belt cover ;)
where is the tensioner for the serpentine belt on a 2004 ford ranger
60 ,000 MILES , YOU MUST ALSO CHANGE THE TIMING BELT TENSIONER EVERY TIME
It is located directly below the alternator on the right (passenger) side of the engine.
Ford recommends it be inspected and replaced if needed at 60,000 miles. I have a 2002 ZX5 and I changed mine at 120,000 miles. 120 is a bit much but there was no visible wear on the belt right up to the time I replaced it. Also when you do replace the belt, spend the extra money and change the idlers and tensioner. Most timing belt "failures" I've seen are from the idlers or tensioner wearing out. Dealer cost is about $345 for parts and labor.
does 2005 ford focus have a timming belt
Where is the belt tensioner on a ford 2003 f350 6l diesel? i need to loosen so that i can replace the alternater
Loosen the tensioner bolt, let the spring loaded tensioner contact the belt. Then tight the tensioner bolt.
