Does anyone have and running it?
Have pics of it installed?
Bout to install mine and just want some tips etc!

Thanks

 

Bump noone?

 

I heard from a kid at the track a little while ago "last year" lol that he didnt like it at all, he said the belt squeaked so much so he took it out but that was only one kid so you might have better luck with it.

 

I can't see why the belt would squeak unless it was not positioned correctly on all of the pulleys after changing the tensioner. He may have just overlooked this. It's easy to have it off a rib on one of the pulleys since it's not easy to see all of them in the Cobalt.

 

I am running it. It works great I had a 2.7 pulley on my m62 prior to going to TVS 2.9 and it works fine.

 

Anyone have pics?
I think i am gonna use it for my 2.9

 

Yeah I dont know I'm just going off what he said I personally dont have one but you very well could be right.

 

sorry for bringing up this old thread but i just ordered mine also and would like to see pics of it installed just so i have something to look at.

 

Im running it with 2.9 pulley

 

I've had mine since early 2007 and i've never had a problem with it before. It looks just like the stock piece installed except you pick which hole to stick the bolt in depending on which pulley you run

 

I've also run down to a 2.5 pulley before with no belt slip

 

Yeah I have zero belt slip

 

with my 2.6 which hole should i have it in? the bottom or middle? i picked mine up for 50 bucks

 

I ran mine on the middle one with my 2.6 but I also ran the stage 2 belt so I'm not sure about the stock belt

 

I think mines in the middle

 

well i got on oversized tensioner pulley and stage 2 belt lol! reason i picked this up is cuz it was cheaper than finding another one and mine is busted where it connects to the bracket.

 

2.6 stock belt and bottom hole for me works with no slip

 

well for those who need a pic pm me your number when it comes time to install and ill send you some pics and ill can guide you thru it. its the easiest thing to install on the car, wayyy easier than the oil filter haha. so guys this is a quality product from zzp *wink*wink* [iwantasponsership] *cough* and best of all install is a breeze. =P

 

Very easy to install

 

Very good product

 

Deff a better thing to get over the tensioner tool. You use a t50 socket to get the belt off instead of the ghey notch and it eliminates belt slip. Mine is squeaking I am thinking due to the belt being old and being removed and installed so much it prolly finally is giving way. Time for a new stage 2 belt.

 

Can I run this ZZ tensioner with the stock size pulley?

 

sure can

 

Yessir I am using the stock pulley. Btw bro what part of Rochester you live in?

 

so i plan to go to 2,5 pulley i really need it or i can keep the oversized bender wheel...
