I never really liked that engine, though it'* better than the 2.7 from what I understand Just looking at that engine gives me a headache. It looks like a mess.My Sebring is at 43K and would have been due for a timing belt change within a year the rate I drive. I'm glad I really don't have to worry about bending valves if my chain should go.
Which brings up a question...what'* the interval of changing the timing chain on our engines? How much over 100K in other words? If a water pump should go I guess it would be a good time to change it too.

Bill thank you for that article.

When we did the belt on the 92 Mitsu it was shady at best, I have checked the belt a couple of times and so far its doing ok but its almost due for a replacement...
And have you guys got the car back yet?
