best online prices -> timing belt replacement ++++ 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Jim on  Sun Dec 7 03:46 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Diving into a timing belt replacement.
I plan on replacing the water pump as well along with serpentine belt.

By default, should I be replacing the idler and tenstion rollers?
or do these parts have a long life (135K on car)

Who has the best prices online?

Yes, if your going to replace the serpintine belt, and the water pump when you do the timing belt, replace the tensioners as well. You wont be back to that area for another 50,000 miles, do it now!!
