Goodyear Belts & Hoses 23073 Timing Belt Tensioner

The Goodyear Belts & Hoses 23073 timing belt tensioner (also called a timing belt tensioner pulley) is a replacement part for an engine's timing system. It keeps the timing belt at the correct tension so it doesn't develop slack.

Key Features:

• Applies steady pressure to the timing belt to keep it tight and prevent slack
• Helps keep the crankshaft and camshaft(s) synchronized, so the valves open and close in time with piston movement
• Helps prevent the belt from skipping teeth on the pulleys
• Proper belt tension reduces the risk of belt failure, which can lead to serious engine damage
• Built from quality materials for long-lasting durability and consistent performance

Follow the vehicle manufacturer's recommended maintenance and replacement intervals for both the timing belt and the tensioner. Replacing them together helps protect the engine's timing system.
