AISIN Engine Timing Belt Tensioner Hydraulic Assembly P/N:BTM-003
$110.99

Keep the timing belt properly tensioned across the entire RPM range with the AISIN Engine Timing Belt Tensioner Hydraulic Assembly (BTM003). This hydraulic tensioner uses pressurized oil to deliver optimal belt tension and automatically adjust as engine speed changes, helping quiet the drive and hold correct timing. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1996-2005 Mitsubishi Eclipse (L4-2.0L 1996-1999, L4-2.4L 1996-2005), 1996-2003 Mitsubishi Galant (L4-2.4L), 2001-2005 Chrysler Sebring (L4-2.4L), 2001-2005 Dodge Stratus (L4-2.4L), and 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander (L4-2.4L).

  • OE engineered and manufactured: designed to provide the optimal pressure throughout the RPM range.
  • Hydraulic operation: utilizes hydraulic pressure to deliver optimal belt tension, automatically adjusting throughout the RPM range.
  • Vibration damping: the OE-engineered pressurized mechanism efficiently dampens timing belt vibrations.
  • Country of origin: Japan.

Signs the original tensioner may need replacing include belt rattle or slap, whining from the timing cover, or loss of belt tension. If a worn hydraulic tensioner is the cause, this assembly replaces it.
