What components to replace with timing belt? S70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be driver8 on  Fri Apr 14 04:04 CST 2006 [RELATED]

I have a 98 S70 N.A. with 140K on it.

Timing belt was done around 73K and I'm thinking I need to do it before I hit 150K (I drive a lot of highway miles everyday). How much longer can I go safely?

I know I need to replace the belt, and the waterpump as a precaution.

I have seen suggestions to replace the hydraulic tensioner too...is this a good idea?

Is there anything else to replace while I'm there that is a good idea at this mileage? I saw FCP also has listed a tensioner pulley too.

I want to do it right, but not replace things unnecessarily.

Thanks.
