My 2000 Corolla definitely has a timing CHAIN. I don't recall what year, but it has been awhile since they have used belts.
1998 and up 4 cylinders have timing chains not belts, which means it is not necessary to replace.
Toyota 4 cyl have always came with timing chains. The v6 have timing belts
Four-Cylinder has chains, V6 has belts.
4M40 is timing chains
4
There is no scheduled replacement on timing chains (only on timing belts). Therefore, it only needs to be replaced if it breaks.
No. the 1.6 and 1.8 corolla motors are what we call non interference or freewheeling. this means that if the timing belt breaks the chance of engine damage is highly unlikely.
timing belt
It has two timing chains...no timing belts
In short, yes. all 3S-FE's came with timing belts. Timing chains werent used on many of the Toyota S-series motors. hope that helps. http://www.rav4world.com
The 1.6 liter and 1.8 liter - 4 cylinder engines in a 1994 Toyota Corolla are : non - interference engines ( according to the Gates website , they make timing belts etc. )
For a used Toyota Corolla to be considered certified, many things are checked first. These things include the engine, transmission, brakes, tires, timing belts, and much more.
