The 1989 Nissan Stanza 2.0 4 cylinder has a timing belt. This is also an Interferance Engine, and as such if the belt breaks, serious engine damage will occur. The belt should be replaced at 60,000 miles.
ca20? remove all the belts, water pump pulley, underdrive pulley, timing chain cover and timing belt and the water pump is accessible. I would replace the timing belt too.
You don't. 89 sentra does not have a timing belt, instead it has timing chain. I have the 1989 Nissan Sentra 1.6L 4-dr sedan. My timing chain needs to be replaced. It runs inside the motor. It is a big task for an auto mechanic to replace it. It will cost me at a *trustworthy* business $470 for part(s) and labor to replace it. Expect it to take a whole day for the car to be in the shop.

Ha yes timing belt breakage in any car can cause damage to the engine... things like bent valves, scored cylinder walls and possible engine failure. That is why the idea is to replace timing belts before they break.
The estimated cost to replace a clutch and radiator, in a 1989 Nissan pickup truck is $1100. A private mechanic may be able to do the job for less.
You don't have too but it is recommended. My brother owns a garage and he always ask people if they want to replace the timing belt because you are right there at the timing belt anyway.
look at your engine oil you may have a leaking head gasket
my head gasket was blown and it had water in the oil which made the oil look a milky color
