Need feedback on 5 cylinder engine

posted by  someone claiming to be Ray N. on  Thu May 29 17:09 CST 2003 [RELATED]

A timing belt is $45 and replacement shop time is 2 hours and 94's up
go at least 70K between changes (105K on newer cars).

I've only seen a couple people post here that they had a timing belt
fail. Failure is pretty rare if serviced correctly.

You might search using "buying advice" in the search field below.
This is a common topic. Yes, there are problems areas that might
cause you concern after reading those posts but timing belts are
not really an issue with the 800/70 series (look at the transmission,
air conditioning and ABS electonics issues first).
