"Ain't nobody got time for that"! I laughed mynass off when you said that! This was a great video! Most guys make you listen to a few minutes of music and fancy waste of time video, like they are a show on a tv channel, as well as always talk about what they already done to the car or what's in their garage, or what the weather is like today, blah.blah blah.. I watch these videos because I need to know how too!! And your video was precise and to the point with helpful suggestions and areas where u came across difficulties and how you over came them!! Awesome video! Thank you for sharing it!!!

Pulley bolt size?

spelunkerd says:

That's a funny weakness of ratcheting wrenches that can't be reversed. Like driving a car into a parking spot with no reverse gear, ha ha.

Trials and Tribulations says:

I have a 2001 Saturn its a sc2 with same sohc1.9 my belt failed on me Christmas night yay.

Im planning to buy the belt from autozone. Could I get by just replacing the belt?

Where did you buy the Gates tensioner? Advance Auto parts, Autozone GM dealer

I need it asap Cause its my only car right now, need fix this before work

Cristian Calvillo says:

What do you do when you strip the tensioner ?

Olena Erhardt says:

In that new model of the Belt Tensioner can you remove the Pulley, like on the original one. I think it doesn't come off. I tried on a new BT I ordered (not original one) and the only thing you can do with that bolt on the pulley, it acts on the spring inside. Can you take it off?

1:55. does not want to get his dirty hands dirty. and why do you morons never give wrench sizes? is that too difficult for your little foreign minds?

Veronica Bedoya says:

Would this make a clanking sound if it's bad? It seems like the sound disappears once it goes past 40 mph. Please help. Thanks

Melvin Riddick says:

What size wrench

Clement Gutierrez says:

Amigo Yo Tengo Uno Saturn 98 sl2 ..me Pues Ayudar. Se Prende Y Apaga se Ahago

William Hill says:

Great video

Alex Belle says:

I finally find someone that works on the same year model as my Saturn thank you, liked and subbed.

Miesha Turner says:

Love the comedy

The Lion and Champion says:

With the belt tensioner removed can the idler pulley be removed from the bottom?
Thank you.

The Lion and Champion says:

I have a question. When the belt tensioner is free of the belt and I spin the tensioner by hand it makes noise. Is there supposed to be any noise in the belt tensioner?
Thank you.

Not Available says:

Oem only, all the aftermarkets are garbage.

Space Suitor says:

I am replacing the same part with a Gates as well, and I notice the design doesn't mate the surface like OEM, leaving an exposed gap, just like yours.

Any update of problems with this vehicle?

Neai Tuppi says:

The tensioner I got doesn't even look like that. The bolt is recessed, which makes it impossible to just stick a 14mm belt extension bar down there.

Kevin Melecio says:

How much did you pay for that part? I have the same car

TheBetterManInBlack says:

OEM pully bolt is 15, but the replacement I got hold of is a 14.

Reklaw Auhsoj says:

go viral please.lmfao

The Musical Dragon says:

Is it still lasting? I bought it waiting for it to get here.

Marlon Tucker says:

What happen to the build??

Big Dog50001 Automotive says:

Thumbs up Jonathan!

Niamh Healy says:

The new pulley looked like a smaller diameter. Does that matter? Also, I'd be hard pressed to give you a thumbs down!! Never! 🙂

Thomas EXOVCDS says:

That's a job that I can handle!
