Timing belt replacement

The timing belt keeps your camshaft and crankshaft in step, so the valves open and close at the right moment. Most manufacturers call for a new belt between 60,000 and 100,000 miles, depending on the vehicle. On many engines a broken belt means bent valves and damaged pistons.
