Gates Engine Timing Belt P/N:T266

$40.99

Description

Keep your engine's valves and pistons in sync with the Gates Engine Timing Belt T266, a direct-fit replacement for the 1995-1998 Mazda Protege. A timing belt links the crankshaft to the camshaft so the intake and exhaust valves open and close in time with the piston strokes — as it ages, its teeth can glaze, crack, or shed, throwing off that timing.

Direct-fit replacement: made to install on the listed 1995-1998 Mazda Protege applications.
Synchronizes valve timing: connects the crankshaft and camshaft so the valves stay coordinated with the pistons.
Signs it may need replacing: squealing or ticking, hard starting, or visible cracking, glazing, or missing teeth on the belt.
Service note: replace at the interval in your vehicle's maintenance schedule; if a worn timing belt is the cause of your timing trouble, this replaces it.
