Belts 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Eddie G on  Mon Jun 6 18:36 CST 2011 [RELATED]

I have a 94 n/a 850 with 186,000. I last changed the timing belt in 2003 when the car had 130,000 on it. As you can see I don't drive it often, but I would like to know if:

a: Do I need to change it? Does the rubber breakdown with time?
b: Should I buy the timing kit and change all the components?
c: While I have it apart, would it be a good idea to change out the water pump?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
