Goodyear Belts & Hoses 23104 Timing Belt Tensioner

The Goodyear Belts & Hoses 23104 Timing Belt Tensioner is a replacement engine timing belt tensioner. It is a key part of the engine timing system. Its main job is to keep the timing belt at the correct tension.

Key Features:

• Applies 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
• Reduces wear on the timing belt and helps extend its service life
• Lowers the risk of belt failure, which can cause serious engine damage

Correct tension is important for timing belt life and engine performance. Follow the vehicle manufacturer's recommended maintenance and replacement intervals for both the timing belt and the tensioner.
