Timing Belt Replacement 850 1996

Larry,
I dont know what Frank is talking about. You have a idler and a tensioner pulley for the t belt. Also a Hydraulic tensioner. First take the belt off and feel the two pulleys, spin them. If you spin them and they don not make at least three revolutions then replace! The hydraulic tensioner however, If you see its moist then replace. If a pulley goes so does your head! 145k, I wouldnt even check, I would just replace. I have 175k on mine and I just replaced them because it really doesnt matter the mileage, It can be any time.
