Change the timing and counter balance belts NOW.

Not tomorrow or the day after -- NOW!!!!

If you have a simple 8 valve engine you can do it yourself about $70.

If you have a reputable mechanic he can do it for about $300.

If you have a sixteen valve engine it's a bit higher in parts but so is the cost of repair!!!

Either way DO IT NOW!!!!!

When was the last time you changed your timing and balance belts and/or cam chain and tensioner?
