Review on Gates 91030 Micro-V Stretch Fit Tool for Easy Installation - Black by Brett Islam

Revainrating 1 out of 5

WILL NOT WORK WITH MAZDA SKYACTIV 2.0L ENGINES

Purchased to replace the tension belt on a 2013 Mazda 3i Hatchback with Skyactiv 2.0L I4 engine. THAT DOES NOT FIT! The problem is that where it is inserted is too close to the engine block and just doesn't fit there. THIS IS ALSO NOT REQUIRED to complete the job. I was able to just slide the belt onto the pulley without tools. Removing the old belt was done with heavy scissors. The tool itself seems solid enough and could probably work on other vehicles. I returned it for a refund.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Small parts
