I have a 1990 geo with the same problem. What is wrong with mine is the pulley is actually a two part pulley ( an inner ring and outer ring) there is a rubber bushing that connects the two or in other words takes up the space between the two. That rubber bushing is most likely worn out. It could also a sheared key. The pulley and crankshaft both have a key way cut in them. I would say it is the rubber bushing.

Is their a tesioner pulley on a 1994 geo prism?

Yes, it is used to adjust the tension on the A/C compressor. Looking into the engine compartment from the passenger side it is to the left of the alternator. To adjust tension you need to loosen the bolt which holds the pulley and then adjust the bolt which is directly above the pulley. Once you have proper tension tighten the pulley bolt.


How do you replace the idler pulley on a 1993 Geo Prism?

I assume you mean the idler pulley on the A/C belt. I have not replaced this particular item but it should be simple. Looking from the top of the engine compartment on the passenger side you will see the idler pulley with a mounting/locking bolt which attaches the pulley and the tension adjusting point immediately above it. Loosen the pulley locking bolt by turning counter clockwise. Relieve belt tension by turning the adjuster bolt counter clockwise. Remove the belt and pulley. Replace in the reverse order.
