IDLER PROBLEM

[blckstng96]

this is a very odd random problem,just came about out of nowhere.popped my hood the other day and noticed my belt is on every pulley fine but the idler.its set like to the very edge of it and its rubbing on the timing cover.i dont understand why or how it randomly got like this.any idea how or whats the deal with it?

The stocker is bent, it bends over time. Is it squeaking?
Buy a new on from ford before you turn on the air conditioning

take care of that quick before your driving down the road and it suddenly gets harder to turn the wheel and it overheats and voltage drops and dies...
