2001 Tacoma timing belt question
in [Toyota Trucks]
|
Prev: Tacoma replacement engine, no spark, won't start
Next: Sequoia antenna will not extend in cold morning
From: Rush on 6 Mar 2007 22:40 Can the timing belt be installed without taking the water pump off? Anyone the experience to grade the difficulty of this replacement item?

From: Paul. on 7 Mar 2007 22:58 The timing belt can be replaced without removing the water pump but I recommend that you change out the water pump while it is sitting there, easily accessible. The link below to 4x4wire is very good. Changing out the timing belt is a fair amount of work, especially removing and retorqueing the crankshaft pulley. I doubt that the water pump will last until the next timing belt change. Paul.
