## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Rough or noisy bearing
-   Belt tracking error
-   Seized pulley
-   Heat or surface damage

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Spin the new pulley by hand before fitting — it should turn smoothly and quietly with no roughness, no drag and no side play
-   Inspect the belt-contact face of every pulley in the drive whenever the idler is changed; a grooved, glazed, corroded or chipped face will ruin a new belt quickly
-   Renew the belt at the same time, and check the tensioner as well, since these parts wear as a system
-   Tighten the mounting fastener to the figure given in the workshop manual for your engine, and confirm the pulley runs true and in line with the rest of the drive
-   Check the belt routing and that every rib or groove is properly seated before turning the engine over, then recheck tension after the first running period as the manual directs
