The andree family (no relation to Curt, a better fellow) was chastising
our list friend for having a setup with no idler on the belts.
I say - it's not needed in his case.
Does the alternator on your 1963 Chevy Impala have an idler?
Is there an idler on the belts for your air compressor?

There are times to and not to install an idler. And times where it's an
option.

I was just pointing out that in that photo, an idler was not needed for
his application, contrary to what the other fellow was stating. There is
no idler in the photo, and that fellow was saying there SHOULD be one.
