Product Details

The Continental Pro Series TB304LK4 is built for timing system service where the belt, tensioner, and water pump are replaced together. The belt measures 70.24 inches in length with 223 teeth and a 1.06-inch top width, and the kit uses a metal impeller water pump for cooling-system service. This part number, TB304LK4, also cross-references Gates TCKWP304A for the same application.

Compatible With 2006-2011 Subaru Impreza, N/A; 2006-2010 Subaru Forester, N/A; 2009-2012 Subaru Outback, N/A; 2010-2012 Subaru Legacy, N/A; and 2012 Subaru Forester, N/A. Fitment notes include interference engine applications on select models, hydraulic tensioner inclusion, and no seals included.

Common Repair Applications

• Replacing a worn or noisy timing belt
• Addressing coolant leaks from the water pump area
• Correcting timing system wear during scheduled maintenance
• Servicing a hydraulic tensioner during belt replacement
• Restoring proper engine timing on Subaru Forester, Legacy, Outback, and Impreza models

Installation Notes

Verify engine code and model-year fitment before installation, especially on 2011 Forester applications with the FB25B engine exclusion and on interference-engine vehicles. Follow factory timing procedures, align the timing marks, and inspect related seals and cooling-system components during service because seals are not included. Replace the water pump and timing components together when performing a timing belt service to reduce repeat labor.

Quality Assurance

Continental Pro Series timing components are specified as OEM-quality replacement parts for timing service. TB304LK4 is built as a complete timing belt kit with water pump for the listed Subaru applications and follows the service interval guidance provided for this kit.
