ZX3TUNING,Mar 21 2005, 04:48 AM Wrote:i really have to stress this to anyone who is not aware... the timing belt is one of the most important maintenence jobs to do!. it should be done every 80,000kms on all cars. some cars like honda's say every 100,000 but i have seen honda's snap belts at 70,000kms.

And if you drive the snot out of your car, like WE ALL SHOULD, downshifting in the upper rev range all the time wears the belt out faster. Gapboys is an auto, so I figure his must have lasted over 140,000 :rolleyes:

Any experienced mechanic (Ford,Honda,whatever) should have this and the waterpump done in less than an hour, and then add an other hour adjusting the valves while you're there.
Old enough to know me limit, yet young enough to exceed it.
