No
You do not need to, but it's highly recommended.
There is no timing belt. There is timing chain. You do not need to ever change it, they last. Except if you change smtg else around, like water pump.
need help on changing 95 Honda accord ex water pump and timing belt.
I have a 2008 Subara Impreza. When should i change the timing belt? Do i also need to change the cogs, tension bars and water pump??
You do not have to, but if the water pump is timing belt driven it is highly recommended.
You do not have to change the timing belt to replace the water pump. You do have to remove the timing belt cover to be able to access the bolts that hold the water pump on.
I'm not a mechanic / technician but if the timing belt also drives the water pump in a 1999 Hyundai Accent ( the answer would be YES )
If the timing belt drives the water pump you should replace the belt at the same time as the pump.
1.4 Eight valve engine. The water pump is the timing belt tensioner on this model. you need to slacken the pump and rotate it to tension the belt.
No, but it can be recommended on a system where the timing belt runs the water pump.
You do not need to, but it's highly recommended. If water pump fails after you change the belt, you will have to do the same work as before to replace the pump.
The water pump is driven by timing belt, so, replace the timing belt while you are replacing water pump, because you have to take off timing belt to get to water pump.
