I am changing the timing belt, but while I'm at it, I want to change this pulley; which has been squealing. Some parts listings call it an idler pulley; others call it a tensioner.

The parts I have seen listed as "Idler Pulley" are also tensioning pulleys; perhaps for vehicles that do not have an A/C compressor and the pulley in the photo. Here it is identified as an idler pulley.

Well, the guys at Rock Auto; who had both idler and tensioner pulleys listed, told me they are the same part. Not confusing or anything.
Also; my pulley turned out to be fine. The tension adjustment bolt fell out of the spindle. The belt was probably squealing as well as the pulley spindle that was probably spinning as well.
