Diesel Engine - Drive Belts, Torque Compensator

Number 83-I-56 Section 6B Date 04/83
Subject: DIESEL ENGINE DRIVE BELTS - 1980-1983 V-8 DIESEL
A crankshaft pulley torque compensator, similar to that used on V-6 diesel engine, is now being used in production on the V-8 diesel engine. The torque compensator reduces the torque variations being transmitted to the drive belt and will increase drive belt life.

The torque compensator is available for 1980 through 1983 V-8 diesel models, with A/C, that use a two-groove crankshaft pulley. The torque compensator and four bolts required for installation are available through WDDGM (part number 22521773).
