I have an issue with timing belt tensioner (engine is: EDM ZC1/D16A1 from CRX AS 1.6-16v DOHC)

 

I bought new one from  local partshop and it's not the right one. Offcourse I junked the old one so I dont know how the oem tensioner even looks like. Its pretty hard to find parts in this model in here. The partcatalogs dont even recognize the older ZC1 model and official Honda dealership cant get that part anymore, so my question is:

 

Is there any HONDA engines that have the same timing belt tensioner ? D16A9/Z5 for example ?

the zcr.com might know if you don't get your answer here or you can get a new one in a timing belt kit from egay

The ZC has 34 tooth cam gears and the d16a1 has 40 tooth cam gears, so the timing belt is different.

Search for part number 14510-PM7-004. This will fit your ZC.

Thanks for replying! I have new waterpump and belt, they are correct but I bought that wrong tensioner from different shop and its the only part I need to start up the new engine :) So I dont need the whole kit, just the tensioner. I searched eBay and they sell full kits for 86-87 ZC and 88-91 D-series and both kits includes same Gates T41011 tensioner, so Ill try newer tensioner, if it'll fit.
