What are the Causes Behind the Damaged Timing Belt in a Car

The timing belt is an important component that must be in good order in order to keep the operation of the valve and piston in control. In typical, a timing belt can last for 60K miles. Through regular services, a motorist can maximize the timing beltu2019s life-expectancy. Failing to identify the earliest signs of damage can cause irreplaceable damage to the engine. Better you keep yourself familiar with your car handbook so that you can keep your timing belt in a serviceable state until it is due for replacement.

  1. WHAT ARE THE CAUSES BEHIND THE DAMAGED TIMING BELT IN A CAR?

  2. Main job of the timing belt is to connect the crankshaft to the camshaft in the car.

  3. Belt controls the timing of the components ensuring optimal engine performance.

  4. Broken timing belts can cause catastrophic engine damage, so keep them in good condition.

  5. To avoid the unscheduled downtime, prevent the drives grinding to halt.

  6. Below points define the causes behind the damaged timing belt in the car.

  7. Excessive load is the main cause behind the shearing of timing belt teeth. EXCESS LOAD

  8. Due to shock loads, the tensile is failed and causes excessive tooth wear.

  9. Debris can cause a multitude of problems for your timing belt and pulley. CONTAMINATED PULLEY

  10. Dirt on the timing belt teeth can abrade it and oil can attack the belt materials.

  11. Main cause behind the timing belt drive failure is the misalignment. MISALIGNMENT

  12. Misalignment of the car will cause several damages such as:

  13. ● Uneven tooth wear ● Belt tracking ● Tensile failure

  14. Worn out timing pulley will reduce the lifespan of the belt eventually. WORN OUT PULLEYS

  15. Broken timing belt teeth will damage the belt and gouges cut the belt.

  16. UNDER-TENSIONED BELT Tooth skipping of the timing belt may down your belt and make it under-tensioned.

  17. Under-tensioning of the belt can cause excessive tooth wear and drive noise.

  18. Timing belt of the car will fail eventually by loss of teeth with other failures. CONCLUSION

  19. If you want to prevent damages of the timing belt, then consider the above-defined causes.
