Timing Belt

Timing Belt

CAUTION: Water or oil on the belt shortens its life drastically, so the removed timing belt, sprocket, and tensioner must be kept free from oil and water. These parts should not be washed or immersed in solvent. Replace parts if contaminated. If there is oil or water on any part, check the front case oil seal, camshaft oil seal, and water pump for leaks.
