I have had this happen before with the larger idler pulley, but I can’t remember what I did. Is it a difference between the 99/00 and 01/02?
Pulley interference
Anybody ever experience this?
Idler pulley is making very slight contact with the tensioner pulley arm. It’s making a very slight squeaking sound as it rubs. I just installed this tensioner; original Motorcraft unit. The idler pulley was transferred over from my 2.5 along with the rest of the timing cover.
I mean I guess it will clearance itself eventually, but that seems wrong.
