Gates Belt Installation Tool P/N:91087
Gates 91031 tools & merchandisers for the 2009-2013 Subaru Forester and other vehicles is a Micro-V Stretch Fit installation tool that helps you put a Stretch Fit belt on without damaging it.
Before you replace a belt, rule out a worn pulley or tensioner as the source of the noise or slipping, because a new belt alone may not clear it up.
The vehicles it fits include the 2008-2011 Subaru Outback and the 2008-2014 Subaru Impreza. For any other car and its engine, look it up under the "Vehicles it fits" section.
