Don't ignore worn timing components on your engine

Renew a worn timing belt or timing chain tensioner from the range at Repco

When engine performance is coupled directly to the health of your engine timing components it makes sense to ensure they are all working perfectly in unison. A worn timing chain tensioner, slack timing chain or frayed timing belt can lead to catastrophic engine damage so don't be left on the side of the road when the unthinkable happens. Repco stock the best in engine timing components from Gates, Dayco and Repco to help maintain both economy and engine performance. Choose from the widest range of timing components suited to whatever you drive at your local Repco Auto Parts store.

Worn or broken engine timing components can lead to significant engine issues. Here are some signs of worn timing components and the potential results if they fail:

Signs of Worn Timing Components:

  • Engine Misfires - Irregular engine performance and misfires can occur if the timing chain or belt is worn and not maintaining proper synchronization between the crankshaft and camshaft.
  • Rattling Noise - A rattling or ticking noise from the front of the engine may indicate a loose or worn timing chain or belt.
  • Engine Performance Issues - Decreased power, acceleration problems, or a rough idle might be symptoms of timing issues.
  • Check Engine Light - The check engine light might illuminate due to timing issues affecting engine performance.
  • Oil Contamination - Metal shavings in the oil could indicate worn timing components, particularly in engines with timing chains.
  • Difficulty Starting - Problems with starting the engine can occur if the timing components are severely worn.
  • Results of Broken Timing Components:

    • Engine Damage - If a timing belt or chain breaks, it can cause the pistons and valves to collide, leading to severe engine damage, especially in interference engines.
    • Complete Engine Failure - A broken timing component can result in the engine stopping completely and potentially requiring a full rebuild or replacement.
    • Loss of Synchronization - The loss of synchronization between the camshaft and crankshaft can lead to incorrect valve timing, affecting engine performance and potentially causing internal damage.
    • Costly Repairs - Repairing or replacing damaged engine components due to timing component failure can be expensive.

    Regular maintenance and timely replacement of timing belts, hydraulic tensioners or timing chains can help prevent these issues.
