Goodyear Belts & Hoses 23116 Timing Belt Tensioner Pulley

The Goodyear Belts & Hoses 23116 timing belt tensioner (also called a timing belt tensioner pulley) is a key part of an engine's timing system. It keeps the timing belt under the correct tension so it doesn't develop slack.

Key Features:

• Applies steady pressure to the timing belt to 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
• Supports longer timing belt life and lowers the risk of belt failure that can lead to serious engine damage
• Replacement-grade design from Goodyear Belts & Hoses

Proper belt tension is critical to timing belt life and engine performance. Follow the vehicle manufacturer's recommended replacement intervals for both the timing belt and the tensioner.
