Belt ightener Sign up here! Search this forum this category all forums for All words Any words Whole Phrase (search options) Auto Repair Home>> Automotive Repair>> Engine Troubleshooting mkinsey7 User May 10, 2011, 9:40 AM Post #1 of 3 (1229 views) Belt ightener Sign In   1999 Chrysler Town and Country 3.3 21400 mi. Van has been having belt squealing. The new tightener and a new belt were installed. Belt continues to squeal. Car was brought to me. I installed a new belt, within first 200 miles, belt was destroyed. I checked to see if the replaced tightener was correct and installed right, looks fine. But, the new tightener is about a quarter of an inch out further than the rest of the pulleys and is tight, thus, Advanced auto said that the new belt of good quality did not side on the tightener and was torn up due to the misalignment, but we can not see what is causing the alignment problem. any help will be appreciated.

There can be any number of problems with aftermarket parts. It could be boxed wrong or just the wrong application. I would try a different brand. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. mkinsey7 User May 10, 2011, 3:05 PM Post #3 of 3 (1211 views) Re: Belt ightener Sign In Thank you, am headed for the Chrysler dealer tomorrow, will let you know what happened.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
