need idler pulley for alternator drive belt

Post by grmorley » Sun Dec 30, 2018 9:45 pm

Can you tell me where I can buy this idler pulley wheel from, it's for a 2000 Bongo Friendee 2.0 petrol FE engine. I can find lots of Bongo idlers but they are all the wrong ones. It's carried in a triangular 3-bolt bracket above the alternator. Or in the alternative, can the old bearing be pressed out? There appears to be a snap ring but no space or hole to help remove it.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,

These bearings are readily available from stockists, the parts number for both is NSK 6303 DUL1 , just measure your bearing to make extra sure. They cost about £5/6 you might require 2.

Take care.

Can I ask why you need one? were you having problems with your alternator and found this to be the cause? Only ask I am trying to figure out the cause of my overheating alternators!
