Product Details

Continental Import timing belts are engineered for import engine service where accurate cam timing and stable belt tracking matter. The TB191 uses a mod-curvilinear tooth design to help maintain smooth power transfer and reduce the chance of slippage under load. Its construction is intended to resist premature wear, helping maintain reliable operation in interference-engine applications such as the 1995-1999 Hyundai Accent, 1991-1996 Mitsubishi Mirage, 1992-1995 Dodge Colt, and 1993-1995 Hyundai Scoupe.

This part cross-references Gates T191 for the same application. The TB191 part number is also referenced by Bando TB191 interchange listings.

Common Problems This Belt Can Address

• Timing belt wear from age and heat exposure
• Noise or irregular operation from a worn belt profile
• Loss of camshaft/crankshaft synchronization
• Slippage concerns in high-load engine operation
• Service interval replacement on interference-engine import vehicles

Installation Notes

Replace the timing belt at the manufacturer-recommended service interval and inspect related drive components at the same time. Because this is an interference-engine application on listed vehicles, correct timing alignment is critical during installation. Verify tooth count, belt length, and application details before service. Timing marks are not provided on this belt.

Quality Assurance

Continental timing belts are built for consistent performance and durability in import engine applications. The TB191 is engineered to maintain reliable belt tracking and load capacity under demanding operating conditions.
