In your opinion how many more kilometers can we drive a with a 1998,
It is my understanding that if your engine is not super high performance with valve overlap, and has non-destructive timing, you can wait till it the timing belt breaks. The timing is little affected with belt age as there is nearly zero stretch before failure. Of course when it goes you will be stranded. While I have never had a failure, I have gone 113,000 miles with no apparent effects of not changing the timing belt in a 1991 MR-2 2.2 liter
4 cylinder, in those days it was 60,000 mile in the book to replace.Ben
