Hi guys. I'm having a bit of a problem resolving the reason for my fan belt tensioner bolt snapping twice in 2 weeks. As you can imagine its not very cost effective or conveinient to keep replacing the tensioner, bolt and fan belt every time. I have looked on the net for simular problems but i cant find any info. Could one of you guys shed some light? |

Check all your idlers are nice and free also check your alternator etc that it isn't seized up or has excessive play make sure you use a decent bolt for the idler too there's a fair bit of tension in it |
