While trying to install, I broke the stolen part on the engine, but I put a longer bolt and it was fixed well. Is what I did considered safe and correct?
Always appreciate the mercury videos brother. I made the same mistake getting the wrong idler pulley hah, got the right one now though. You know the torque spec for that one?
What are the torque specs for idler pulley? 37 ft lbs is the correct torque spec for all of the bolts that mount on the front engine casing for the pulleys and tensioner.May 6, 2016
The water pump is connected to a pulley and driven by the engine's belt If the water pump fails, the coolant won't circulate, causing the engine to overheat.
I remember when I changed the idler pulley on my Mazda 3, it was clearly written on the pulley box to turn off the engine before replacing it :)
Thank You for Sharing Your Knowledge! I'm fairly new to Ford Products (all Chevy before) Your Videos Help Me Alot!
God Bless You!
Just swapped out the idle pulley and tensioner and belt thank you very much for the video
I knew we were lucky to have the belt facing the front, instead of the side. But you made this look so easy!!!
It's a Solid Practice to treat the Bolt Threads with Anti-Sieze Compound when mating Dis-Simular metals.
Easy even for a 67er. Thanks

Hello.. Can a bad pulley cause the engine to run hot??
The water pump is connected to a pulley and driven by the engine's belt If the water pump fails, the coolant won't circulate, causing the engine to overheat.
Ok gotcha. So will a loose engine belt or worn out belt cause the engine to run hot by not rotating correctly on water pump pulley?
Water pump is new. Radiator new. Thermostat new. But it still tries to run hot. I was just wondering is it bad belt or bad pulley
Idle pulley or tension pulley.?. idk
That pulley fit on my car, you got the wrong engine
You erase ur other video
Well done. Thanks.
Your not a dumbass bro! Great video 🤙🏻
