timing belt sizes

Engine belts are rubberized components designed to transfer power from the engine to various accessories. The serpentine belt, for instance, drives multiple peripherals—such as the alternator, air conditioning compressor, power steering pump, and sometimes even the water pump. The timing belt, on the other hand, synchronizes the crankshaft and camshaft, ensuring that the engine's valves open and close at the proper times during each cylinder's intake and exhaust strokes.

The primary function of the drive belt is to transfer power from the engine’s crankshaft to various accessories, enabling them to operate. For instance, when the engine runs, it rotates the crankshaft, which in turn causes the drive belt to spin. This motion activates the accessories connected to the belt. Unlike older cars that used several different belts to connect individual accessories, most modern vehicles utilize a single serpentine belt, which is more efficient and easier to replace.
