Timing Belt: Testing and Inspection

1. Check timing belt teeth for breaks, cracks, and wear. If any fault is found, replace belt.
2. Check the condition of back side of belt; if any crack is found, replace belt.

Note: 
-

Be careful not to let oil, grease or coolant contact the belt. Remove quickly and thoroughly if this happens.

-

Do not bend the belt sharply. (The bending radius must be greater than 60 mm (2.36 in).)
