What affects the wear strips so when to replace them? What affects the wear strips so when to replace them? Fortunately, the consequences of disappointment, there are quite as dramatic as in the matter of failure of toothed belts. Nothing will happen if your time comes to smaller belt slip - in the matter of the timing outcome could have been the destruction in the engine. The bigger problem may be neglected broken belt - especially when he drove the case. Coolant pump. In older designs dominated by narrow belts. Due to the fact that they carry only a smaller load, with the increase in the amount of devices it was necessary to use a growing number of strips. Designers in Stevenage (East of England) coped on this problem, replacing them with wide stripes. One such bar can simultaneously drive the alternator, steering pump, coolant pump and ac compressor. Unfortunately, there were some while doing so without the additional complication of design - to give them optimal conditions, it is usually essential to apply appropriate pre-tensioners along with rollers. Proper installation is essential - In the matter of belts fundamental importance is if the assembly will be adequately stretched. Too loose quickly tire, they can slide along with make noise. Stretched too tightly deterioration the driven accessories, such as. Water pump, alternator and air treatment compressor. Ribbed Belts also need careful installation - it is possible to spoil much here, helping each other making use of their tensioning pulley inadequate methods. Under good conditions should serve for quite a while - Correctly fitted belt inside Stevenage should withstand tens of thousands. km, durability ribbed belts designed with automatic tensioners normally go over 100 thousand. km. Their failures may happen much earlier, just so they would have if only for a minute contact with oil or even fuel, or were inadequately. Very often strips will still be damaged during assembly. The material from which it's made, is resistant to stretching out, but it can always be damaged, eg. By bending or tugging him by force by using tools with sharp sides. Before installing a completely new belt, be sure to check the condition of all pulleys. In the case in the V-belt cooperating with the condition may be wiping the counter working (not only the rubber is easily wiped - metal too!) And the inappropriate setting in the wheels relative together, with the result that this belt is operated at. Accessory drive systems using ribbed belts must be paid attention to the fact that the wheels don't have faults (creases, burrs) that may damage the belt. In most construction tensioners and dampers need to be replaced with a belt. Why belts squeal? - Characteristic squealing belt testifies for you to his slip. The reasons may always be several: a small voltage (on account of incorrect adjustment), the active surface wear strip (because of too long operation or even the frequent sliding), oiling or contact while using fuel, or too much resistance inside driven accessories. If during work ensures that the bar "throws up" for the pulleys, and after stopping the actual engine without much resistance buckles underneath the pressure of a ring finger, it means that either it must be tightened, or in cars with automatic tensioning replace this particular item. It is not well worth the wait, because apart from the fact that loose belt noise, overheating while its floor - the longer many of us delay the regulation, the more likely that it must be replaced. In the case in the strip oiling there isn't a salvation for him - material changes are irreversible, will not help almost any cleaning, you need to fit the brand new belt. If the bar is actually shabby, you can slightly extend his life by using a suitable preparation spray. With the extreme ice after switching all electrical consumers light bar will be normal - the alternator doing work under load is very resistant. If, however, also heard in regular conditions, and the bar will be efficient, it is necessary for you to immediately check all powered with the device.
