    Hi All;

    I have a squeek coming from the front of 1992 960 3L-B6304 engine.

    The exposed ancillary pumps belt one sees with the bonnet up, has two
    idler pulleys, one is the tensioner, the other right beside it, is
    static.
    I think this staic pulley has a bearing starting to fail as ther are
    signs of rust around the bolt head.

    I cannot find a solution to this on brickboard, but I guess it is a
    simple job to get the pulley out and repair what is necessary.

    So to my question:-
    Is this pulley on ball/roller races or is it a crude bush round the
    holding bolt that just needs cleaning-lubricating?

    Are there any hints on how to hold back the tension pulley while
    removing belt?

    Regards
    Ian
