Cheap and unreliable Belt Tensioner

My analysis of this automotive product showed that it was poorly built and caused my engine to misfire .The cheap plastic construction is unreliable and failed after only a few weeks of use causing me to spend extra time and money to replace it. However, the price of this product is much cheaper than others on the market, but it's certainly worth paying extra for better quality..

Pros
  • Cheap price
Cons
  • Poor construction and caused engine misfire.

Price and quality match.

Owned for a few months with no problems so far. My old one literally fell in two when I changed the pulley, price and quality are pretty consistent.

Pros
  • Engine parts
Cons
  • Poor manual
