Gates Engine Timing Belt P/N:T271
Keep your engine's valves and pistons turning in perfect sync with the Gates Engine Timing Belt (T221) — often cross-shopped as a Gates carbon drive belt. This belt loops over the timing pulleys to synchronize the crankshaft and camshaft so the valvetrain stays timed to the rotating assembly. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1993-1997 Isuzu Rodeo, 1996-1997 Acura SLX, 1994-1997 Honda Passport, and 1992-1997 Isuzu Trooper; see the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the engine for your vehicle.
As a leading global manufacturer of OE timing belts, Gates builds aftermarket belts to meet or exceed OE standards of fit, function and performance, with resistance to heat, wear and contamination. The Gates warranty even matches the original manufacturer's timing belt replacement intervals — covering not just parts, but also labor and other associated costs.

What does the Gates T221 timing belt do?
It loops over the timing pulleys to synchronize the crankshaft and camshaft, keeping the valves opening and closing in time with the pistons so the engine's valvetrain and rotating assembly stay in mechanical sync.
Which vehicles does the T221 fit?
It's listed for the 1993-1997 Isuzu Rodeo, 1996-1997 Acura SLX, 1994-1997 Honda Passport, and 1992-1997 Isuzu Trooper. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the engine for your vehicle.
What is the T221 belt made of?
It uses high-grade HNBR rubber with PTFE-infused jackets, premium tensile members, and aramid-reinforced nylon jackets and backsides for heat, wear, and contamination resistance.
How do I know if my timing belt needs replacing?
Timing belts are a scheduled wear item. Signs it may need attention include cracking, fraying, glazing, or missing teeth. If a worn timing belt is the cause, this replaces it — follow your vehicle's service interval.

Yes. The Gates warranty matches the original manufacturer's timing belt replacement intervals, covering not just parts but also labor and other associated costs.
