Hey guys I will be chaning all my belts, along with the water pump and the timing belt. I was wondering if I should chagne my timing belt tension along with everything else? Let me know if it is necessary or not?

 

It's not necessary, but I'd do it since you're in there and replacing everything else...

 

Yeah, you should. With a '03, I'd be amazed if it wasn't due for a change. You're supposed to change it every 60k.

 

Thanks a lot guys I guess I will be buying a tension also. Arh!

 

Does Mr-Auto-Parts have one? or are you going with one more local?

 

I couldn't find one on mr autoparts or else I would have gotten it at the same time. Can you confirm that slvroz

 

Well I just called them and they don't have access to the timing belt tensioner. I guess I am going to have to get ripped for a local dealer.

 

Why not do an online dealer?

 

Yeah, unless you need it immediately...why not order online?

 

Tensioner should be good but if it looks suspect at all, change it.

Thanks a lot Rob. It looks pretty good so I guess I will keep it on. Turbo is still rockin, baby!

 

Where do you guys get your parts at? I called mr-auto-parts and they said that only mitsu will have it.

 

Call Gabe. We can get a timing belt for you.
