Question Idler Pulley
Hi all, I have an 07 Honda Fit. I recently replaced the idler pulley on my car. The engineers over at Honda thought that it would be a great idea to have the idler pulley spin the same way that unscrews the bold holding the pulley to the engine block. Consequently, the pulley keeps unscrewing itself. If I screw it down real tight, the pulley stops spinning all together. Any idea's or experiences?

My first thought would be: crunched bearing. Does the pulley spin freely in your hand still?
