Hey All,
When replacing the serpentine belt (4.0 I6), how tight should the jackscrew on the idler pulley be? I replaced it once at 40K miles and set it to what I thought was sufficient. I'm now nearing 80K and I've got the ominous squeak telling me it's time again. I feel I should probably get this right this time.
Also, it's time for the "big" service again (cap, rotor, plugs, wires, brakes, etc...) and I'm wondering about brake rotors. I've heard that they are un-cuttable past a certain point. They are the original rotors and I'd like to replace them but $$$ is tight.
What is the letter of the law on XJ brake rotor cut limits?
Thanks,
