• Description:

  1998-2004 Ford Econoline belt tensioner is one of the many wear items you'll find yourself replacing over the course of your ownership. The belt tensioner's job is to maintain tension on the Econoline's serpentine belt so that it remains on each of the accessory and idler pulleys. The belt tensioner arm also moves along its spring-loaded pivot by a small amount to accommodate shock loads and compensate for belt wear. Whenever the belt needs to be replaced, it can be moved out of the way with a socket wrench or a specialized tool.

  Over time, the belt tensioner often loses its ability to maintain just the right amount of force on the serpentine belt. This can cause the belt to slip off of its pulleys and cause engine accessories to stop working. Whenever you replace your serpentine belt, you should also check your belt tensioner to make sure it's able to work properly.

  If you have to replace your 1998-2004 Ford Econoline belt tensioner, make sure you use genuine OEM Ford parts. These parts often offer a greater measure of quality and reliability than aftermarket components. You may end up spending a little more, but you'll have peace of mind and a tried and tested part capable of a long service life.
