This info was spot on brother!! I bought a new belt,put it on and the next day it snapped! The tension pulley locked up. I went to AutoZone and bought the Duralast idler pulley part#231055 for $27 and the Gates serpentine belt #
K060895 for $26. I replaced the original pulley in about 5 min. The two M10 washers worked perfectly. The pulley turned smoothly. I put on the belt in about 10 min. When I cranked up my SC400,it was smooth like a sewing machine. I'm very appreciative of the detail and pictures for this job. It's saved me over $300 by doing it myself. Thank you so much

An update: About 30K miles, and 4 years later.
1. The Tensioner pulley is still good. (Auto Part Dayco 89055).
2. The bearing of the idler pulley (Amazon Haydon 5021 ) was bad, replaced the the pulley with Nachi 6301 pulley.
