AISIN Engine Timing Belt Tensioner Hydraulic Assembly P/N:BTH-002
Keep the timing belt under steady, correct tension across the rev range with the AISIN Engine Timing Belt Tensioner Hydraulic Assembly BTH-501. This hydraulic tensioner applies pressure to the timing belt system, helping maintain proper belt tension and quiet, accurate valve timing as engine speed changes. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2003 Honda S2000 (L4-2.0L) and the 2004-2009 Honda S2000 (L4-2.2L).
Signs the original tensioner may need replacing include timing-belt rattle or slap, unstable belt tension, or fluid leakage from the hydraulic body. If a worn or failed tensioner is the cause, replacing it with this assembly restores proper belt tensioning. Because it is a key part of the timing-belt system, many technicians replace it together with the timing belt and related components during a scheduled belt service.
