Default Can I use the AHH idler roller on an AFC if I drill the hole to the 10mm ID.

ECS sent me the wrong part or I ordered the wrong part.

Anyway everything is exactly the same except the AFC has a brim going around the top and has a larger hole in the center. Other then that the roller is the same diameter and the bolt hole just needs drilled. I am just asking because there is no brim and I donâ€<sup>TM</sup>t know if that makes that much of a difference.

Yes that means I got the wrong tensioner pull as well. But I donâ€<sup>TM</sup>t see why I canâ€<sup>TM</sup>t just use the allen key hole in place of the 10mm hole which should be 8mm. I Think I would only have to come u p with a different way of adjusting the tension on the timing belt if I am not mistaken.

Default Calling up ECS now. I figured I would ask guess it will be another week

since I donâ€<sup>TM</sup>t like paying for overnight delivery. Helps a little because I have a second car to drive. But only one of them has a decent sound stage and itâ€<sup>TM</sup>s the one not running right now.
