so I reckon now that the snow is melting it would be a good time to change out the T belts in the wifes 93 940 (165K) and the mom's 87 240(217K)- both NA 8 valvers.

so as far as this goes- T belt and tensioner- what else should I do? the 940 has new front seals done by me 15K ago, we got the car and I did the radiator, WP, and front seals. but the T belt looked brand new, so I ran it. also new belts and hoses on this one.

the 240 needs acc belts, prolly a new WP for good measure, and I reckon I'll do the hoses and seals. continental a good brand for these belts? Ina tensioner and hepu WP?
and also when does one replace the timing gear pulleys on these?

This is a straight forward job for me, but I do want to use the correct quality parts.

thanks,mo
