What is principle of operation of gas distribution system of an automobile engine?

As an important part of engine's gas distribution system, timing belt is connected to crankshaft and matches a certain gear ratio to ensure intake and exhaust timing is accurate. Because of importance of timing system, major vehicle manufacturers have made it a point to check and replace timing system.

Being an expert in belt drive system (hereinafter referred to as timing system) solutions, Gates has also repaired timing maintenance in advance (check 60,000 km, replace timing combination kit after 60,000-80,000 km) This concept is aftermarket, unlike ancillary system products which are easy to see and inspect, timing system products are often hidden behind engine cylinder head, requiring professional technicians to remove cylinder head for inspection and replacement, therefore, it should follow manufacturer Regular inspection and timely replacement of timing system products, if ignored, they can lead to serious consequences.

Four-stroke engines are used in almost all vehicle engines, including gasoline and diesel engines

Each working cycle of a four-stroke engine is completed by moving piston up and down twice, that is, four strokes, as shown in figure:

Timing repair kit

It is well known that a poorly performing belt driven transmission system can cause a number of serious problems, and failure of any transmission component can affect normal operation of other transmission components, resulting in serious consequences and economic loss. To avoid this risk, replace timing belt, tensioner (or tensioner) and tensioner at same time when repairing and replacing timing product. Gates Timing Repair Kits contain everything needed for replacement.

Timing water pump repair kit

In many cases, it is necessary to replace not only timing belt, tensioner and roller, but also water pump at same time. There are many models of water pumps on market that are driven by a timing belt. If water pump fails, coolant can leak out and contaminate belt. Long-term coolant contamination will eventually lead to premature timing belt failure and poor performance of entire timing system. With Gates timing water pump kit, many car owners have everything they need, including a water pump.
