I seem to be on a roll and happen to have the camera handy. Anyone know what where and part number of the pulley that is in focus just above the CV boot? It'* starting to make a slight noise at idle.

Well, since I honestly am not familiar with the SSEi routing, take this as a guess, but it looks to be your idler pulley. Is it attached to anything else or does it just spin in place?

On a 95...I thinky that'* a tensioner pulley. You can remove the pulley only w/o having to replace the entire tensioning assembly. Measure the diameter and I can pick one up and include it when I ship the next package to Canada....
