I don't think so ,you can try and see if the pulley has play , but if the tensioner's spring puts too much pressure , you might not feel anything . I would loosen up the belt (take it off the tensioner) and then check .I have also remebered something , back when I had a Windstar , I had a smiliar noise and noticed that the tensioner was bouncing up and down at idle . I took it to the dealer and they said it was the tensioner's spring . I don't remeber if they replaced the tensioner or the spring could be adjusted . I hope this will help you in some way
