Timing Belt: Inspection

  1. Inspect timing belt for cracks or damaged teeth. Ensure timing belt is not contaminated with oil. Check belt tensioner pulley for smooth rotation. Replace damaged components.
  2. Check free length of belt tensioner spring. Free length is measured from inside end to inside end of spring (not coil area). Replace spring if free length is not 1.390" (35.3 mm) on 1.6L engine or 1.252 (31.8) on 1.8L engine.
