Does anyone have any idea on where I could get the top belt tensor for my 99 5.7 coup? A part Number? Thanks
Here's the part number for the Tensioner, Drive Belt, 97-00, #12559325. If you're not in a hurry, try GM Parts Direct, good prices but a little slow in delivery. If you need it faster, try Fichtner Parts. I have used both with very satisfactory results.
Gene Culley at Fred Beans ( a supporting forum vendor) has the best prices and service on the internet for a C5...
Just email him with your VIN # and he will give you a price quote including shipping for the right part for yourt specific part, usually he gets the part to your door in a few days. gculley@fredbeans.com
I have one that has less than 35K on it, and I thought it was the tensioner, but it was the idler pulley and a glazed belt, so I have it sitting around and will give it to you, all you have to do is cover shipping and I can have it out tomorrow.
I ordered my tensor today. Some mornings, I would start thye car and the belt would be off. According to the mechaninc, needed a new tensor. I appeciate your support.
Should I be able to assist you in any way,or planning a cruise to South Padre don't hesitate.
