C1Difficulty 3/5

For an engine with a toothed timing belt that runs dry, what belt maintenance should you follow?

Correct answer

Yes, replace it periodically.

Replace it according to the intervals and conditions in the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule. Do not add grease to a timing belt designed to run dry. Follow the specified inspections and requirements for other components too; there is no single interval for every engine.
