Genuine Mazda Protege Belt Tensioner

Mazda Protege Belt Tensioner provides part power, as it keeps the serpentine belt at the correct tension, ensuring each turn of the crankshaft produces consistent electricity, cool coolant flow, responsive steering, and chilled air. It is a relatively small assembly that consists of a stout coil spring, a low-friction pulley, and a rigid arm that immediately adapts to changes in engine load so the belt does not slip or squeal, and it is rated for rock-solid reliability among Mazda owners. Regardless of the motor size in your early 1.8-liter DX or your recent 2.0 ES, the Belt Tensioner bolts into any model in the Protege lineup between the first models of the early nineties and the late 2003 models. Its auto-spring design automatically compensates for the stretch of the belt over its lifetime, which doubles the advantage of increasing fuel efficiency and protecting vital systems, an added advantage of not only improving performance but also improving the safety of the vehicle. The present-day Belt Tensioner does not require regular wrenching as the older models did, thus allowing owners to sit back and enjoy their commute rather than fear that some part of the car may malfunction at any time. Since the Belt Tensioner maintains factory tension in the belt at any speed, warning lights remain off, coolant temperature is consistent, and steering feel is firm, all characteristics of the reliable Protege driving experience. During summer journeys on long roads or chilly cold morning rides, the part is equally resilient, a trait that has helped Mazda score high for survival in the compact market. This humble but essential component reflects the overall philosophy upon which every Mazda component is built and provides practical utility and a hint of spirited engineering by providing set-and-forget tension control.
