What Does a Timing Kit Include?

[VonJoel]

A timing kit not only includes the timing belt but also comprises the tensioner pulley, idler pulley, toothed belt, and related accessories required for the maintenance of the engine belt drive system. When replacing the car's timing drive system, it is best to replace the entire set and choose products from the same manufacturer to ensure high compatibility of parts and a long service life. Below is a detailed introduction: 1. The tensioner pulley is used as a belt tensioning device in the car's drive system. It mainly consists of a fixed housing, tension arm, wheel body, torsion spring, rolling bearing, and spring bushing. It can automatically adjust the tension according to the belt's tightness, ensuring the drive system's stability, safety, and reliability. 2. The timing belt is a crucial component of the engine's valve system. By connecting to the crankshaft and matching a specific transmission ratio, it ensures the accuracy of intake and exhaust timing. 3. The idler pulley primarily assists the tensioner pulley and belt, changes the direction of the belt, and increases the wrap angle between the belt and the pulley.
