Noise from the timing belt area or a flapping belt can mean this tensioner is worn, though a worn timing belt or a belt idler can also be behind them, so pin down the source before buying parts.
Cloyes 9-5019 is also a timing belt tensioner for the 1976-1978 Honda Accord 4-cylinder 1.6L, and each engine named on this page takes one.
