Detailed Product Description

Gates TCK195 is an engine timing belt component kit for vehicles that require a complete timing service rather than a belt-only replacement. The kit uses a hydraulic tensioner and one idler to support proper belt tracking and timing system service, while the HSN belt material and modified curvilinear tooth style are specified for timing belt applications. The Gates TCK195 is listed with OE Exact comparison rating, making it a direct-fit style service part for maintenance on Mitsubishi 3000GT, Mitsubishi Diamante, and Dodge Stealth models within the confirmed year ranges.

This timing belt kit is intended for 1991-1999 Mitsubishi 3000GT, 1991-1996 Dodge Stealth, and 1992-1995 Mitsubishi Diamante applications. It cross-references Continental TB195K1 for the same application.

Common Timing Service Issues Addressed

• Worn or stretched timing belt
• Noisy or weak hydraulic tensioner
• Idler bearing wear during timing service
• Timing system maintenance on high-mileage engines
• Restoration of proper camshaft and crankshaft synchronization

Installation Notes and Tips

Follow the included instruction sheet number 0098-0255 during installation. Verify engine timing alignment before removing the old belt, and inspect related timing components and seals during service. This kit does not include timing marks on the belt, so careful alignment during installation is important. Confirm vehicle fitment by year, make, and model before ordering, especially for Mitsubishi 3000GT and Dodge Stealth timing belt service.
