Tools - New Compact Belt Tension Gauge
Number: 83-I-10 section: VIDate: Nov., 1982
Subject: COMPACT BELT TENSION GAUGE
TO: ALL CHEVROLET DEALERS
A new compact belt tension gauge has been developed for use on transverse engines or on applications where a lack of space prevents the use of the current belt tension gauges J-23600 or BT-7825.
This new gauge employs a self-cocking trigger mechanism which allows the user to apply the gauge where space is limited. Once the gauge is on the belt, push the trigger to release, and the pointer reads pounds tension directly on the body of the gauge.
This gauge can be obtained through Kent-Moore J-29550, or through Borroughs Tool and Equipment Corporation BT-33-79.
