  • Premature deterioration from ozone exposure
  • Incorrect tooth engagement in the timing drive
  • Noise or irregular operation from a worn timing belt

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine timing marks and component alignment before removal and installation. Because this belt has no timing marks, set timing using the engine’s service procedure and inspect related components such as tensioners, idlers, and seals during service. Confirm the front-position application and match the belt dimensions and tooth count to the vehicle before installation.
