[GMCnet] Pneumatic belt tensioner [message #335561] Tue, 24 July 2018 07:53 Go to previous message
Anonymous   United States
I know some disagree with me, but I still think a simple, inexpensive pneumatic belt tensioner pushing on the back side of the PS/alt belt at its longest run would go a long way to increasing belt wrap at the alternator thereby decreasing or eliminating belt squeak there and at the power steering pulley. It would mount on a simple pivot point and push against a stationary member. If I still had a GMC I think I could prototype one in an afternoon.
