🔹Wet Timing Belts operate within the engine oil and are responsible for synchronising the top and bottom parts of the engine. Since they are lubricated in engine oil, regular oil changes are crucial. Neglecting such oil changes or using incorrect oil, can shorten the belt’s life. Any minor impurities in the oil, such as soot or crystalline, can lead to premature belt wear.
🔹Wet Timing Belts are usually made of rubber reinforced with corded fibres. Over time the teeth can become detached, creating a smooth section on the belt. This causes the pulley to slip and changes the engine timing. Manufacturer’s recommendations for Wet Timing Belt replacements vary for specific makes and models, so 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐭𝐨 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐊𝐞𝐫𝐫-𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡 𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐋𝐭𝐝 if you are unsure.
