Timing belt tensioner

Post by Oscar »

Anyone know the GSF part no for a 1.7 TZD cambelt tensioner? I'm looking at their online catalogue and it's not at all clear which is the correct tensioner.

Thanks

And what's in the "cylinder head gasket set" that they advertise? Bolts? Scraper?

Help!!?!

Oscar,
GSF do not appear to list it any more. There are two pulleys - the tensioner and an idler pulley include in a timing belt kit that used to be available.
Maybe try ECP or a factor to get hold of this.

I'm told ECP have them in (for a Xantia at least), though i haven't checked this myself.
