Product Details

Gates designs timing component kits for complete timing system service, helping technicians source the belt and tensioner together for a cleaner repair process. The PowerGrip Premium OE Timing Belt Component Kit line is positioned as an OE-equivalent replacement solution, and TCK160 follows that approach with a belt and spring tensioner matched for the listed Honda Accord and Honda Prelude applications. If you are servicing a Honda Accord timing belt or replacing a Honda Prelude timing belt kit, this part number is built around the original engine timing requirements.

This part cross-references Cloyes BK160 and Dayco 95160K1 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Timing belt wear, cracking, or age-related deterioration
• Noise or loss of tension from a worn timing belt tensioner
• Scheduled timing belt service on interference-engine Honda applications
• Restoring proper camshaft and crankshaft synchronization
• Reducing repeat repairs caused by replacing only part of the timing system

Installation Notes and Tips

Use the included instructions during installation and follow the vehicle service procedure for belt routing, tensioner setup, and timing verification. Because this kit does not include timing marks, confirm engine timing carefully before startup. This kit is listed for 1983-1987 Honda Prelude and 1984-1989 Honda Accord applications, so verify engine configuration before ordering.
