• Mod-curvilinear tooth profile for smooth engagement and stable operation
• 149 belt teeth for application-specific timing accuracy
• 0.98 in. top width and 55.87 in. belt length
• No timing marks for applications that do not require printed alignment marks
• Engineered for high load-bearing capacity to reduce slippage risk
• Built for durability in high-temperature and demanding operating conditions

Product Details

The Continental Import line focuses on timing components for import vehicles that rely on accurate camshaft and crankshaft synchronization. TB139 is specified for a broad range of import and domestic-badged models, including the 1990-1998 Hyundai Sonata, 1997-1999 Mitsubishi 3000GT, and 1995-2000 Dodge Caravan. It also serves other Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, and Mitsubishi platforms where the correct belt length, tooth count, and profile are critical to engine timing. This part cross-references Gates T139 for the same application.

Common Problems This Belt Can Address

• Timing belt wear from age, heat, and mileage
• Noise or irregular belt tracking in the timing system
• Loss of synchronization between engine components
• Premature belt deterioration in demanding operating conditions
• Service needs on interference-engine applications that require scheduled replacement

Installation Notes and Tips

Replace the timing belt at the manufacturer-recommended service interval and inspect related drive components at the same time. Confirm tooth count, belt length, and tooth profile before installation. Because this part has no timing marks, follow the factory service procedure for alignment and tensioning on each vehicle application. Compatible With 2000 Chrysler Grand Voyager, 2000 Chrysler Voyager, 1995-2000 Dodge Caravan, 1992-2000 Dodge Grand Caravan, 1992-2000 Plymouth Grand Voyager, 1995-2000 Plymouth Voyager, 1997-1999 Mitsubishi 3000GT, and 1990-1998 Hyundai Sonata, among other listed import applications.

Quality Assurance

Continental timing components are built to meet the demands of import engine service, with attention to load capacity, wear resistance, and consistent performance under heat and stress. TB139 is part of Continental’s Import product line for vehicle-specific timing applications.
