Review on 🔩 Gates PowerGrip Premium Timing Belt Component Kit TCKWP265 with Water Pump by Scott King

It's time to replace the timing belt as recommended by Dodge at 70-80k miles. If it breaks while the engine is running, you need all new valves. Like most 4-cylinder engines, it is called an interference engine. That's all you need to get the job done, except new coolant. Hard work, but I saved over $500 in labor costs by doing it myself. Be sure to align the arrow on the crankshaft pulley with the center of the mark on the block (not on the edge as shown in the instructions) and use a thin, hard ruler across all 4 marks on the camshaft pulleys. I liked the spring loaded tensioner more than the adjustable one that came with the kit. My 2.4 Vin X motor is strong. Should be enough for another 80,000 km.
