Detailed Description

The Gates 90K-38114B Accessory Belt Drive Kit is engineered to restore the serpentine belt drive system rather than replacing only the belt. Servicing the tensioner and idler pulley at the same time helps address wear in the full drive path, which is important on vehicles such as the Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable where accessory drive condition affects charging, cooling, and overall engine accessory operation. This kit references belt part number K060850, idler pulley 38001, and tensioner assembly 38114.

This part cross-references Gates 90K-38114B for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Squealing or chirping from a worn serpentine drive system
• Belt tracking issues caused by a weak tensioner or worn idler pulley
• Visible cracking, glazing, or edge wear on the accessory belt
• Repeated belt replacement when underlying drive components remain worn
• Accessory drive noise on 2001-2007 Ford Taurus and 2001-2005 Mercury Sable models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify belt routing against the vehicle diagram before installation. Inspect pulley alignment, tensioner movement, and accessory bearings during service so the new belt is installed into a clean, properly aligned drive path. For best results, replace the full serpentine drive components together when wear is present.

Quality Assurance

Gates supplies this kit as a complete serpentine service solution with OE-equivalent belt construction and matched drive components for accurate fitment on the listed Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable applications.
