GM Timing Belts

The Purpose of Timing Belts

Timing belts are responsible for synchronizing the rotation of the crankshaft (which drives the pistons) with the camshaft (which controls the opening and closing of the engine’s valves). Timing belts ensure that the valves open and close at the correct times. This coordination is crucial for the engine’s proper operation.

Replacing Your Chevy Timing Belt

When the timing belt needs repaired or replaced, address the issue promptly to avoid engine damage. Without a properly functioning timing belt, you risk bent valves, damaged pistons, or complete engine failure. Some signs that your timing belt may need replaced include:

• Squealing, rattling, or slapping sounds
• Loss of engine power
• Engine misfires
• Engine fail to start
• Engine overheating
