    Who has the best rates for insurance on a sprinter?

    Correct Idle Pulley for OM647 Sprinter Engine

    Are the bolt holes to the tensioner wore out, or repaired at some point? If so, then that could cause the tensioner to wobble just enough to throw your belt. I went nuts trying to find out what mine was doing. Even throught the power steering pump could be bad, locking up and burning the belt...

    Correct Idle Pulley for OM647 Sprinter Engine

    I was going through those, (not the underware), for a while, sometimes twice or three times a year. My problem was my alt was to small for what I wanted it to do. I only had a 90 amp, and was charging two aux batteries with a small cable. Changed to a 150 amp, much bigger cable, and the smart...

    Correct Idle Pulley for OM647 Sprinter Engine

    Yeah, I know, but this is not the Sprinter fourm and I thought for those that didn't know should. And those that know should be reminded as I see the large grooved pulley still on their Sprinters.

    Load-1, Load-1 and Load-1.....is that $300.00? If I took to heart what was said when I ask this question in 04, I would not be doing it today. Times were bad, winter, drive for someone before buying your own truck, etc. Good thing I found this site- was almost ready to sign on with the bottom...

    Correct Idle Pulley for OM647 Sprinter Engine

    This is the correct pulley. Those are not grooves just shined up from the belt ribs.

    Correct Idle Pulley for OM647 Sprinter Engine

    My first encounter- Service writer " Seems your top pulley is worn out, has no edges or groves." replaced with one that has edge and groves, also a little bit bigger. (wrong one for this engine) If you are having- tensor failure, belts breaking, idle pulley failure, then check that top right...

    For CVers..Ill. tolls going up Jan 1st

    Yeah, just pay what they tell ya. It's only money. Or you could just spend more in fuel by doing the stop and go on side roads.

    New NJ Ice law goes in effect.

    Cost wouldn't be that much, reclaim tanks, filters, heaters, and a storage tank. Wash bays already have the overhead sparyers. Haven't done an analysis on it, but it did not delay flights. For that matter, you can de-ice a truck using hot water, just get the metal hot enough to keep it from...

    New NJ Ice law goes in effect.

    The snow and ice build up happens where? Truck stops, and rest area's. Back in my "other life", we use to de-ice aircraft out on the ramp before take off. In Denver we had a de-icing pad, aircraft would pull up to these spots kill the engines and get de-iced. All de-icing fluid was reclaimed and...
