Hello
Im in need of some help. On my 2000 zx2 the belt tensioner pulley broke off at 2 places. 1st was at a bolt hole on the pulley itself, The 2nd one concerns me, it broke off at a arm of some sort near the water pump. Can this be fixed? Where can i get the part?
Thanks

I attached a photo

 

Check with your local auto supply store. Give them your year,make , model,engine size , w/wo A/C, and ask if they have a belt tensioner assy in stock. Then go and see if it is the same as what you show in the pix. Usually easy to replace.

 

Thanks for your reply, but what about the broken arm? where do i get it? the new tensioner will only have support for 1 bolt with out the arm. I attached a pic of the broken arm i took off the pulley

 

After further looking i think i found the part. Can this be replaced? Have to pull engine? Any instructions please?
see photo

 

Exact same thing happened with my 2000 zx2. Tried jp weld to glue the arm, worked for a while then broke again. Did you get yours fixed?

Yes Got mine fixed. Had to change the water pump jacket (housing) The arm is part of it. Included pulling off the pullies and timing belt

 

Thanks for getting back. Did you have to pull the engine to replace the housing?

 

No didnt have to pull engine. I just removed the 1 top mount next to the belt for more access and placed a floor jack under oil pan to help support engine. Here's the part on ebay Part #: F8CZ8505TG Got mine used for 45.00 .if your gonna do it make sure you get the F8RZ-8507-CA gasket and the O ring K31792 Water Pump Gasket http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-OEM-WATER-PUMP-HOUSING-TENSIONER-2000-3-FOCUS-1998-99-TRACER-1998-03-ESCORT-/231071323630?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories &hash=item35ccec95ee&vxp=mtr
