A pulley is a simple machine consisting of a wheel and an axle used to change the direction of a force. A sheave is a type of pulley with a grooved wheel used to guide a rope or cable. In essence, a sheave is a specialized type of pulley designed for specific purposes such as lifting heavy loads in industrial settings or for use in sailing.
A triple screw pump is a type of positive displacement pump that uses three screws (one power screw and two idler screws) to move fluid through the pump. This design provides smooth and pulseless flow, making it ideal for high-pressure and high-viscosity applications where precision and reliability are crucial. Triple screw pumps are commonly used in industries such as oil and gas, marine, and chemical processing.
The idler pulley is between the alternator and the A/C compressor.
The idler pulley is mounted on a plate that needs to be removed. In order to remove the plate with the idler pulley, you must remove the engine mount to get out the idler pulley. To remove the engine mount, you need to jack-up the engine from the bottom of the oil pan (Note: place a piece of wood plank between the bottom of the oil pan and the jack).

If you are referring to the Serpentine belt, you loosen no pulley. You simply remove tension from the belt. The tension is applied by the Idler Pulley. Pry the idler back and remove the belt.If you are referring to the Serpentine belt, you loosen no pulley. You simply remove tension from the belt. The tension is applied by the Idler Pulley.

Remove the belt, then remove the bolt holding in the idler pulley.
Remove the old, damaged idler pulley and replace it with a new one.
Replace the tensioner assembly as one piece.
== == it is a free pulley that works as a tensioner on any belt bolted to hold or spring loaded An idler pulley usually tensions a belt.. eg supercharger belt is kept taut by its respective idler pulley
Is it serious if my car idler is making a noise?
It is not recommended to bypass an idler pulley as it plays a crucial role in the functioning of the drive belt system. You may experience issues such as increased belt wear, noise, and decreased performance if you bypass the idler pulley. It is best to replace a faulty idler pulley to ensure the proper operation of your vehicle.
