Many thanks to gray matter contributers 700 1985

I think that the maintenance schedule for timing belts is every 50K, so I would replace the belt soon, the sooner the better. I think that the B230 is an interference engine, meaning that a timing belt break could be very expensive to repair.

Good luck and congrats on the water pump.
