AJM23 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 My engine's making a rattling noise. It sounds like it's coming from the very front of the engine. Does this mean I need to get a new fan belt? If so does this belt go by any other name, because I know there's a few belts in these engines and I don't want to make a mistake when I order a new one. Thanks for reading Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for reading I had a rattling noise on Monday, it sounded like it was in the front of the engine also, I stopped to check and the AC tensionier pulley had come off, annoyingly wearing the remaining belts downIts all replaced now but check the tensionor pulley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johngreen537 Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Now remove the compressor system, get some free weight reduction Sell it on eBay, and get paid to do it too All BSeries AC pumps/compressors are the same or interchangeable!
