There are three types of tensioner pulleys and several ways to loosen them. Think of AI tensioners as adjustable accessories, such as an alternator, and NAI tensioners as adjustable idler pulleys. Tensioner pulleys generally fall into two categories: accessory-integrated (AI) and non-accessory-integrated (NAI).
Stretch belts don’t need tensioner pulleys but are “stretched” into place using a special tool-always use the special tool to prevent belt damage. You'll need to tighten a tensioner pulley, in most cases, after the installation of a new drive belt, or to adjust for a stretched drive belt that hasn’t worn enough to warrant replacement. Replacing a drive belt or timing belt, for example, would require you to loosen a tensioner pulley to make room for the new belt, as the new belt is smaller than the worn drive belt. Sometimes, maintenance or repair will require tightening or loosening a tensioner pulley.
Various forms of tensioner pulley maintain long-term engine and accessory quietness and reliability. Conversely, an excessively tight belt may cause accessory or pulley bearing damage. A loose timing belt or timing chain could lead to excessive noise, abnormal wear, or crankshaft/camshaft correlation problems-DTC P0016 is a classic example of a skipped timing tooth. A loose drive belt won’t drive the accessory reliably, slipping and making noise. The drive belt, timing belt, or timing chain will not work well, or for very long, if at all, with incorrect tension. Toothed timing belts and timing chains, too, are used to transmit power from the crankshaft to the camshafts, and some from the camshaft to camshaft, depending on engine design. For decades, drive belts, V-belts, multi-vee-belts, and serpentine belts have been used to transmit power from the engine crankshaft pulley to accessories, such as the power steering pump, air conditioning compressor, water pump, or cooling fans.
