Your engine is a set of very complex systems that work in tandem with each other with precision accuracy. Everything needs to work together at just the right time in order to create that internal combustion that generates power for your vehicle.

That timing is managed by your timing belt or chain. The timing belt in your car, truck, or SUV is what rotates the crankshaft and the camshaft with a series of gears so that the valves on your engine open and close at just the right time. This has to happen with that precision timing in order to ensure that the valve openings and closings coincide with all of the cylinder's intake and exhaust strokes. If the timing gets out of sync, then the whole process will not function properly.

If you have any other questions about your timing belt or chain then feel free to contact one of the experts here at Skyline Mitsubishi in Thornton.
