Idler Pulley Washer?
Is it supposed to have a big washer in front of it?
I'm thinking it should have one that covers the entire bearing similar to the one on the Belt Tensioner pulley.
I had the idler pulley replaced about 16 months ago when I was on a road trip, the dealer only charged me $35 to put a new one on thought was a great deal at the time.
But today when I pulled it off it had no washer on it at all. I had to dig around to find a washer that fit over the center part of the bearing.
Before someone asks its on my '99, 5.9l gas.

Looking at some schematics it shows the spacer on the front, that would mean that it was installed backwards. The spacer is on the wrong side, going to switch it around this evening before the temps here drop into the teens. Wonder if that’s why it went bad again so fast.
