Hi folks,
bit of your knowledge required, does the 4.0 SE p38 have 2 x idler pulleys, ie. L/H and R/H ?

I thought I had a noisy idler pulley ( one under idler tensioner) but on removal of the belt it was found to be ok no movement or noise from bearing but the pulley at the other side of the water/ pump fan pulley is worn and noisy. Is this just another Idler pulley and can I use the idler pulley I bought to fit to the original one under the idler tensione as they look the same.

Also I can move the fan back and forth when the belt is off but it sits fine with the belt on is this normal > no overheating or coolant loss.

thanks for your assistance.
 
Hi folks, cant believe anyone on here can assist with this Query, disappointed, will have to look elsewhere.

thanks to those that read the thread anyway.
 
i have a 1999 4.6 HSE and i had to replace a number of idlers, pumps, belt etc. Have a look for my recent posts there is some detail in there but might help you. i thought i had solved mine but no joy starting now again so i only have 2 pulleys to do - the bottom crank pulley, auto tensioner or the viscous fan bearing!!! loosing my patience with it but i love the motor so it is worth it.

By the way megliam like the look of your motor! where did you get the wheels and the chrome detail in the bumper? have you had the bumpers painted?
