I should know the answer to this but have seen lots of conflicting info. and haven't changed a tensioner and timing belt for several years.
How many miles should tensioner and timing belts go before replacement? I have seen literature that says anywhere from 45K miles (Owner's Manual) to 150K miles (on brickboard). The 7 cars my daughters and my wife and I have are 1993-1995 NA 940s all with B230 engines.
Also, I have several belts and tensioners ready to be the replacements (I must have found some on sale a few years ago). The belts are the round tooth type. Any thoughts on how good Continental Contitech timing belts and INA Tensioners are?
Thanks!
