You baby your engine in so many ways because you know that an engine is one of the most expensive parts on your vehicle to replace. But are you taking care of your engine by ensuring that your timing belt is in good working condition. If you’re not, you should.

The timing belt is a part that ensures that the camshaft and crankshafts are opening and closing the pistons and valves at the correct intervals. Without this timing element working properly, your engine can’t run. It’s even possible that if the timing belt brakes with the pistons and valves are opening and closing that your engine could be damaged. Ouch, that’s a big price tag.

If you’re interested in learning more ways that you can protect your engine, or if you’re interested in having your timing belt checked out, come to our service center Steete-Ponte Ford in Yorkville, NY. We’ll be happy to take a look at your vehicle and find all of the ways that you can optimize the longevity of your timing belt and engine.
