(1) CAUT ION: T he condition of cam shaft tim ing belts should always be checked on vehicles which have m ore than
50,000 m iles. Although som e m anufacturers do not recom m end replacem ent at a specified m ileage,
others require it at 60,000-100,000 m iles. A cam shaft drive belt failure m ay cause extensive dam age to
internal engine com ponents on m ost engines, although som e designs do not allow piston-to-valve
contact. T hese designs are often called "Free Wheeling". Many m anufacturers changed their
m aintenance and warranty schedules in the m id-1980's to reflect tim ing belt inspection and/or
replacem ent at 50,000-60,000 m iles. Most service interval schedules shown in this section reflect these
changes. Belts or com ponents should be inspected and replaced if any of the following conditions
exist:

CAMSHAFT TIMING BELT
The condition of camshaft drive belts should always be checked on vehicles which have more than 50,000 miles. Although some
manufacturers do not recommend belt replacement at a specified mileage, others require it at 60,000-100,000 miles. A camshaft drive belt
failure may cause extensive damage to internal engine components on most engines, although some designs do not allow piston-to-va l ve
contact. These designs are often called "Free Wheeling".
Many manufacturers changed their maintenance and warranty schedules in the mid-1980's to reflect timing belt inspection and/or replacement
at 50,000-60,000 miles. Most service interval schedules in this manual reflect these changes.
Belts or components should be inspected and replaced if any of the following conditions exist:
Cracks Or Tears In Belt Surface
Missing, Damaged, Cracked Or Rounded Teeth
Oil Contamination
Damaged Or Faulty Tensioners
Incorrect Tension Adjustment
Replace camshaft timing belt every 60,000 miles.
COOLING SYSTEM
Replace engine coolant every 36 months or 30,000 miles. Check condition of hoses and clamps every 12 months or 15,000 miles, whichever
