Gates 87-94 Subaru Justy 3-Cyl. 1.2L Cam. Tensioner Assy. Timing Belt Tensioner

When you're replacing the timing belt on your 1987-1994 Subaru Justy, it's smart to also swap out the tensioner assembly. This part is key to making sure your new timing belt stays at the correct tension, which is vital for your 1.2L 3-cylinder engine to run smoothly and prevent damage.

Gates is a well-known name in belts and related components, and this tensioner assembly is built to meet the needs of your Justy. It works with the timing belt to keep the camshaft and crankshaft synchronized. Proper tension ensures the belt doesn't slip or become too tight, both of which can cause serious engine problems down the road. This is a direct-fit replacement, meaning it's made to install without needing any modifications to your engine.

Replacing the timing belt and tensioner together is a common practice because they wear at similar rates. Doing both at once saves you from having to do the job again sooner if the old tensioner fails shortly after a new belt is installed.
