WARNING
NOTE: When repairing or replacing the idler arm,
it is important to make sure the idler arm moves
freely. To ensure that the idler arm can move freely,
proceed as follows:
(1) Unhook idler spring.
(2) Lift idler arm approximately 3 inches and
release. If idler arm does not fall back to
the base of the motor mount, then idler arm
bolt is too tight.
(3) Loosen idler arm bolt 1/4 turn.
(4) Add grease between idler arm and motor
mount.
