Drive Belt: Testing and Inspection

ENGINE MAINTENANCE (QR25DE ENGINE)




Checking Drive Belts

WARNING: Be sure to perform when the engine is stopped.

- Make sure that indicator (single line notch) of each automatic tensioner is within the allowable working range (between three notches).

NOTE:
- Check the automatic tensioner indicator when the engine is cold.
- The indicator notch is located on the moving side of the tensioner.

- Visually check entire belt for wear, damage or cracks.
- If the indicator is out of allowable working range or belt is damaged, replace the belt.
- Belt tensioning is not necessary, as it is automatically adjusted by auto belt tensioner.
