What's a Cambelt and When Does It Need Changing? Timing Belt
A cambelt or timing belt is one of the most important parts of a car's engine. It's responsible for keeping crucial parts of the motor working in sync with each other - making sure timing is accurate to ensure perfect running.Some cars have a timing chain instead of a belt. A chain is normally made of metal links rather than rubber or polyurethane, which is what most belts are made of. Chains tend to more durable and normally last longer than a belt, but that's not to say some can fail.
