Belt Idler
Replaced belt tensioner, idler pulley and serpentine belt. There is still a high pitch squeal.4.0L 6cyl sohc?
And yes I purchased the correct parts for the make of vehicle. This is very annoying. The alternator went out 3 months ago and it was reworked and put back in. This is when all the belt noises started.
The belt was put on according to diagram, and it is too loose. The noise starts when you crank the car and goes away when the car warms up or you turn the AC on. 04 Explorer XLT
Belt tensioner is on correctly, my husband is out working on it now and Im trying to get answers to help him out, since Im the one having to drive that squealing thing. My question is if everything is correct and it is the right size belt why is there still too much play in the tension and the belt tensioner is automatic adjusting. I will have to get him these answers. Thanks guys!
I changed belts twice,idler pully,tension pully made sure they all lined up. The last time I started it (5 min ago) no noise then 5 seconds later it started again. any suggestions? Thanks
When you start it up have someone look under the hood and see if one or more pulleys are not turning or turning slower.
One possible culprit maybe the power steering pump.
May need to clean the pulleys that the belt runs on of any oil/grease or dirt.
In the past, I've told many individuals that, next to the table saw, my edge sander has been the most used of all the woodworking tools in my wood shop. That may be because my woodcraft designs always seem to have a lot of curved surfaces incorporated into them. While it is true that an edge sander can sand long, straight edges, I use it to sand inside and outside curves far more frequently than straight edges.
With an edge sander, I can even sand large, round table tops using a jig with a pivot pin in the center. My machine uses 6" x 108" sanding belts and has about a three-foot platen surface. Outside curves are sanded on the front table and inside curves on the end table using the bend of the idler drum. My edge sander does not oscillate and neither the front table nor the platen can be tilted. Most machines being sold today are less limited than that.
My technique is to mark the final shape to be sanded with a pencil line on the work piece and then cut just outside of that line by about one blade width with the band saw or a jig saw. If the work piece is too large to manage on the band saw, I use a jigsaw (sabre saw) to make the cut. After that, I use the edge sander to bring the work piece down to its final measurements.
An oscillating edge sander keeps the sanding belts from loading up and burning by constantly moving the sanding belt up and down with reference to the work piece. An edge sander with a tilting front table or a tilting sanding head allows you to sand bevels and even compound angles.
If you've used edge sanders much, you know that, in time, the sanding belt is going to break, announcing its departure from this world with some scary reverberations followed by a loud bang. I have never been hurt by this but I have always backed away from the machine at the first sign of belt breakdown.
A prudent way to keep this from happening is to take care that your sanding belts are under six months old because the glue that holds the lap or butt joint together tends to dry out and weaken with time. When ordering sanding belts, keep this in mind. Acquiring sanding belts in large quantities may not a bargain in the end if you are ordering more sanding belts than you can use up in six months. Butt jointed sanding belts will leave a smoother finish but lap joints are much stronger and less likely to blow up.
Another explosion-avoidance practice is to, whenever possible, avoid sanding sharp, pointed edges that can tear into the abrasive and destroy it. If your machine has a lubricated surface on the platen, such as graphite, that will help lower the contact between the back of the belt and the platen which will lessen heat buildup that decreases the life of your sanding belts.
Dust collection on any edge sander is an absolute requirement and the dust collector must be substantial enough to handle any amount of sanding dust that might be created by your edge sander. If you don't already own a dust collector that can suck up at least 600 cubic feet of air per minute (or more) you will be required to add the price tag of that machine onto the price tag of the edge sander. So, when considering the actual cost of an edge sander, make sure you are looking at the total cost, not just the price tag of the edge sander itself.
