Kinda extreme reaction considering you asked for videos and brought up "ALL engines".

There are engines out there without tensioners nowadays. They use stretch belts. Dunno if any Fords have them though.

The 1.6 in the Fiesta and Focus have them, no tensioner, had to cut the belt to remove it and use a special guide to put the new belt in, a real PIA!

This reminds me when I've talked about one specific detail for the year section we in and are referring to 2009-2014.
Then someone chimes in with; "Well you know in 2003 the fx4 had or looked like this.."
Yeah, I realize that but in 09 thru 14. Which we're talking about, they....
Just like this thread. It was a question about a specific engine.

Default Belt Tensioners

I have a 2012 F150 5.0 and it has Belt Tensioners on both belts (2) and one Idler. One is toast, and making some noise. Not sure of which one, so I may replace both at the same time. I saw that tie wrap video and was a little worried that I might have that situation. I have what is shown below.

Here is a video showing the 2013 F150 V8 step by step belt replacement. There are two belts. Each belt has a tensioner.

Thank you very much for this - I saw the zip tie video as well and was like wtf! This made things a breaze. Kind of dumb you have to remove one to replace the other belt. But overall - super easy.

I don't see people with part numbers on these, so i'm assuming the two belts are these:

Accessory:
Amazon Amazon

AC:
Amazon Amazon


Also, i probably missed this, but when is the usual service time on these belts?



All times are GMT -4. The time now is 05:55 PM.
