What is a Timing Belt or Timing Chain? 

The timing belt is a critical component of your vehicle’s engine, and yet few people think of them until there is a problem. The timing belt or timing chain is a part that fits in a very specific spot against your engine. Its function is to synchronize the movement of your engine’s crankshaft and camshaft. This ensures that the vehicle’s valves and pistons on the top and bottom of your engine are opening and closing in the proper rhythm or “time”. 

One main thing to keep in mind is that the overall condition of your engine and timing components will greatly influence the signs presented as the timing belt or chain wears out.
