Timing Belt/Chain Service
Many of today's engines use timing belts, but not all. Some engines use
a timing chain and sprocket arrangement.
A timing belt is a precision
component with teeth that mesh exactly with its mating sprockets.
Especially critical is uniformity of the teeth and their spacing. The
belt's teeth are precision molded from a special rubber compound for
good mesh and long life. The belt's inherent tensile
(stretch-resistant) qualities come from high strength cords that run
parallel with the direction of belt travel.
Purpose of Timing Belt Maintenance
The timing belt maintains crankshaft-to-camshaft synchronization,
keeping valve operation matched to piston position. On some engines,
the belt also drives other components. These include the oil pump,
water pump, and balance shafts.
Timing Belt Replacement Recommendations
Check your car's owner's manual for information on timing belt
maintenance.
Manufacturers generally recommend a certain mileage for
belt replacement. If the timing belt is not replaced at the suggested
interval, the belt could break, leaving you stranded and possibly
causing major engine damage. If you're having the timing belt replaced,
consider replacing other parts that may be accessed at the same time.
The water pump, timing belt sprockets and tensioning pulleys are good
examples. Check with a qualified service technician if you have
questions about your car's needs for timing belt maintenance.
