  • Idler pullies...

    I need a 3500 idler that goes where the powersteering pump went on earlier cars, also, can anyone confirm that a 3400 timing cover is the same as a 3500 in that area? mainly, can you bolt the 3500 idler to a 3400 cover?

    I have a box of them. Are you talking about the one at the bottom right hand side when looking at the timing cover? It's just a standard smooth idler pulley. I have a pile of the ribbed pulleys as well.

      nah, I'm talking about the one that goes on the top right of the timing cover, so the water pump spins on a motor that doesn't have a power steering pump.

        Which one? The P/S pump is in the same position on the 3500 as earlier motors...

          The pulley that goes here!



          I assume that pulley stand-off like seen in the center except it bolts on. am I correct in thinking that?

            Do you have a pic of all the pulleys you are trying to use? I looked at your thread and it's hard to tell your planned routing via pics.

              you can see the routing in that pic best, left of the alt. down to the bottom of the crank, to the left of the ps, to the bottom of the a/c, to the wp, over the idler, under the tensioner, and back to the alternator.

                The 3500 tensioner hit the P/S? Almost looks like it's going to work in the pic if your belt was longer. You also have the spot inline from the crank to W/P that can hold an idler pulley, and either ribbed or smooth.

                  it's not the tensioner that's the problem, (well, my new one is, but that's another thread...) it's the ps mount, the belt would touch it and get destroyed in a matter of seconds...

                    and this thread can be closed, I'm gonna have to go to the jy for a couple of other parts anyways, so I'll just pull them while I'm there.
