Well its becoming time to order some maintenance parts for my 205 and just have a quick question for some of you.
1) When replacing my timing belt, should I also replace the tensioner as well? I did not with my previous 185, but what is the advantage to doing so? 2) Is there any point in purchasing a HKS timing belt rather than my OEM one, considering I do not plan on doing adjustable cam gears anytime soon on the vehicle? I know I had a few more questions, but will update when I remember haha. -Kellen. -------------------- current project: looking :(

I was looking into this as well. Going to do mine in the spring.
Here's an awesome guide and info regarding this. www.gtfours.co.uk go to How to/Repair/change cambelt It makes sense to also change the Alternator and Power steering belt along with a few other things while your at it. Process looks pretty dreadful to me but if you end up doing it soon keep us updated. |
