Review on Gates 38016 Belt Tensioner Pulley by Marcus Hargrave

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Healed my rattling noise

I used this in a '96 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a 5.2 liter V8 engine. I just replaced the idler pulley and decided to check the tensioner. Although it turned very freely, it made a noise when turning, as if there was too much play in the bearing and no lubrication. After replacing the belt pulley, the "rattling" that has been heard from the engine for years is gone.

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Everything is great
