Default New Idler Pulley and Tensioner

Well..

Went to Checkers and bought what was supposed to be a stock replacement for my idler pulley, and the damn thing wouldn't spin after installing it.

I'm in the market for an idler pulley that actually works... and a good tensioner.

Thanks..

I went with a katech solid tensioner from thunder racing .. very nice product, bolted right up, then you just adjust it to keep the belt stiff... I used to have a problem where I'd throw my belt constantly... I haven't thrown my belt since putting the solid tensioner on...

Both my Ideler pullies make noise. Changed one, now problem again. I think it is the other one. WTF.
