Timing belt service on a 97 Eclipse GST
« on: February 16, 2017, 12:06:19 am »
So my Water pump starting leaking this morning and that time that I had been dreading is here. Timing belt services.

Planning on doing it as an Apprentice of my Mechanic father, So I was wondering as to what is the procedure, what there is to take out to reach the whole assembly, as well as any DSM specific tools i'll need.

Kit is already ordered from Gates racing, and planning on doing it this weekend. Cars the 4G63T, not the 2.4.

Cheers

You really, truly are better off to either buy a factory/shop manual or - you know - google it. The entire first page of results contains a goldmine of concise and well illustrated information. Surely more than anyone here could be willing to type out at a moments notice.

That said, you did take the first step of ordering a Gates RB kit. Good start.
