I just snapped these pics - was inspecting the timing belt on my 90 Civic Si and was planning on replacing. The car has 131,000 miles on it and I got it about 6 months ago... haven't driven it much - I was *thinking* the person I bought it from said the timing belt had not been replaced, but I don't know how long she had it. This belt looks pretty good and I can still see the Honda logo on the top of the belt - I know she always had it serviced at a Honda shop too. Thoughts? Not going to bother replacing it if this was replaced recently, and it does look good to me.

 

Looks pretty good to me. You might want to double lookover for hairline cracks.

 

*looks* pretty good, does look a bit worn/old also, but if she said it wasnt replaced, why take the chance? i say just replace it

 

timing belt looks good what about that valvetrain lots of buildup

 

Yeah - there's several engine internal type things on my list of things to do

And I found out that the timing belt was most likely done just a year ago, I knew that looked too new to be the original!

 

Ditto
