draggon Posted August 23, 2005 Author Share Posted August 23, 2005 i found it on napaonline.com $51.49 does it sound about right http://www.napaonline.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/ExecMacro/NAPAonline/search_results_product_detail.d2w/report?prrfnbr=15580681&prmenbr=5806&usrcommgrpid=54822879 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthWet Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 i found it on napaonline.com $51.49 does it sound about right... It is probably about right. But, you can get them for half the cost from other online sources, such as "The Parts Bin" http://oem.thepartsbin.com/parts/thepartsbin/wizard.jsp?year=1988&make=SU&model=LOY-4WDT-001&category=All&part=Timing+Belt+Tensioner Its possible that other local sources may carry it, too. Maybe Autozone? Regarding Versailles (which you folks really should learn how to pronounce correctly ), I guess Jim hasn't told you about the time I spent in his neck of the woods.

draggon Posted August 23, 2005 Author Share Posted August 23, 2005 no as a matter of fact he didnt tell me,and exactly how is versailles supposed tobe pronounced,after winning 7 state h.s. football titles they figure they can pronounce it anyway they want lol,i told him you were posting in the thread and he didnt say a word about you being out here in the sticks.were gonna try the one jim has from the xt-4 1st,jims never taken one out before and neither have i,is there anything special i should know about the tension spring.

Well, they could pronounce it like the original Versailles in France... you know, the one Marie Antoinette (please don't mispronounce her name, too! lol) hung around while she still had her head? But, it doesn't stop there: Madrid, Cairo, at least one other that I forget... But then, we do our own bad pronounciations, such as Medina. And I won't even get started on our Anglicized Native American names here! ...were gonna try the one jim has from the xt-4 1st,jims never taken one out before and neither have i,is there anything special i should know about the tension spring. Nope, pretty easy. You (or Jim) might want to consider getting a set of tensioners online for "the next time". $50-something bucks to prevent a t-belt job is cheap insurance. BTW, Jim probably didn't mention me out of humility, as he and his family did much to make my cross-country trip (and back!) bearable. They made me at home going both directions. Great folks; reminded me of what Middle-America is supposed to be like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subarunewbie2005 Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 OK I have a similar problem I think. My sons 84 died on him yesterday at the local park and wouldn't restart again. Well we both agreed that the cat might be the problem after consulting a couple of local mechanics (good friends one lives down the road and the other lives across town). SO today i went and removed the headers from the engine after about 15 minutes I had them off, went to start the car and..................nothing. No oil presure, no nothing, the engine tried to catch but kept spinning over. I havent checked the distributor yet but considering the way the engine is acting.im not getting any spark. this leads to my question, on an EA81 engine......1.)where are the timing belts located? 2.) WOuld a broken timing belt cause the oil guage to read zero? 3.) Was my original thought correct? We are going to be cutting out the cat anyways. Thanks for any help in advance.

Cougar Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 You should start a new thread on this problem. If you haven't confirmed that you don't have spark then I would check that first. Frankly, I would not not suspect the CAT as the problem until I check other things. Check to see if the rotor in the disty is spinning as you crank it. If it isn't turning then a timing belt is broken. They in front of the engine under the plastic covers. If the belts are ok I would make sure voltage is getting to the coil and to the other side of the coil. Since you say that the engine tried to start it sounds like one of the T-belts is broken.
