What Are Some Signs That Your Timing Belt Needs Work?
There are numerous signs that you might notice that indicate it’s time to replace your timing belt. You might see that your engine has trouble turning over if your timing belt needs attention. Another possible sign of timing belt problems is an engine that frequently misfires. You might hear unusual noises coming from your vehicle engine if your timing belt needs to be replaced. You could hear a ticking noise if your timing belt becomes worn out. This sound is caused by combustion abnormalities within the cylinder head of the vehicle. Sometimes, a vehicle begins to leak oil when it needs to be replaced. This can happen because the timing belt is cracked. This scenario can lead to increased engine temperatures, causing extensive engine damage if the problem is not addressed promptly.

What Happens When Your Timing Belt Breaks?
A timing belt that snaps can cause a good deal of damage to your engine. A snapped timing belt can make it so that the valves become bent and both the camshaft and cylinder head become damaged. Another possible negative consequence of a snapped timing belt is that the piston and cylinder wall could become damaged. Because a snapped timing belt can cause so much damage, it’s best if you replace your timing belt before it snaps.
