Professional installation is highly recommended. The following are general steps and may not exactly match your specific engine model.

1. Safety First: Disconnect the battery cables to prevent accidental starting.
2. Access the Belt: Remove the flywheel cover and any other components obstructing access to the timing belt cover.

4. Remove Old Belt: Loosen the bolt on the belt tensioner pulley and slide the old timing belt off the pulleys.
5. Inspect Components: Before installing the new belt, inspect the tensioner and idler pulleys for smooth rotation and any signs of wear or damage.
6. Install New Belt: Route the new belt around the pulleys, ensuring the teeth are correctly engaged and directional arrows (if present) are oriented correctly.
7. Set Tension: Apply the correct tension to the belt as specified in your engine's service manual and tighten the tensioner bolt.
8. Verify Timing: Rotate the crankshaft two full revolutions by hand and re-check that all timing marks are perfectly aligned.

What are the signs of a failing timing belt?
Common symptoms include a high-pitched squealing or ticking noise from the engine, rough idling, engine misfires, or difficulty starting.
