TIMING BELT INTERFERENCE VERIFICATION INFORMATION
TIMING BELT INTERFERENCE CAUTION
NOTE: CAMSHAFT DRIVE BELTS OR TIMING BELTS - The condition of
camshaft drive belts should always be checked on vehicles
which have more than 50,000 miles. Although some
manufacturers do not recommend replacement at a specified
mileage, others require it at 60,000-100,000 miles. A
camshaft drive belt failure may cause extensive damage to
internal engine components on most engines, although some
designs do not allow piston-to-valve contact. These designs
are often called "Free Wheeling". Many manufacturers changed
their maintenance and warranty schedules in the mid-1980's to
reflect timing belt inspection and/or replacement at
50,000-60,000 miles. Most service interval schedules shown in
this section reflect these changes. Belts or components
should be inspected and replaced if any of the following
conditions exist:
* Crack Or Tears In Belt Surface
* Missing, Damaged, Cracked Or Rounded Teeth
* Oil Contamination
* Damaged Or Faulty Tensioners
* Incorrect Tension Adjustment

FRAME & UNDERBODY
The following illustrations indicate points for jacking and
hoisting vehicle. These points are indicated by shaded areas on the
frame and underbody. See Fig. 1.
OUTERBODY
Points on the outline of body were designated to be used
specifically with vehicle's own jack. See Fig. 2. If floor jack or
hoist is used at these points, use extreme care to avoid damaging
outer body shell. See Fig. 2 or 3.
