At 80k miles, that belt should only have 20k miles on it... - 4Driver4 2008-10-10 19:35:24 (145 views)

Because it's wishful thinking... just like our lifetime fuel filters! - ScratchRob13 2008-09-29 18:47:32 (124 views)

Opinion, on the side of caution. Maybe cracks on the tensioner? - shawfm 2008-09-28 18:36:42 (85 views)

all components in good working order - would have made it to 105k easy - olaf 2008-09-29 04:27:33 (140 views)
