when to t-belt, advice needed 200 1983

posted by  someone claiming to be oldduke on  Tue Jul 9 10:39 CST 2013 [RELATED]

hi sages- 2 questions about the t belt advice thread which i read . 1st isnt it best practice to replace the front seals when rebelting? also what damage results when a timing belt busts in a non interference engine like the 230? ive only seen engine wreckage occur with an interference engine. interference engines never should have been allowed to go into production without a clear warning of what would happen when that rubber belt breaks. that canard about how they improve mpg and environmental values is wiped out when a dealer tries to clip you 5k for a new engine at 86000miles. thanks oldduke
