1.6L ecotec is belt, In general, if it's a plastic housing on timing covers, it's belt, and if its metal, its chain. Chain timing typically requires oil feed to lubricate chain guides and tensioners and as such looks more integrated into the front engine cover. Belt type timing does not require oil feed to maintain tension on the belt, and as such, looks bolted to the front of the engine. again, these are just guidelines and a call to your local gm dealers parts department will verify on your particular car if it is belt or chain timing.

The interval on your timing belt is 100,000kms.

NO there is not. The timing on that engine is computer controlled and it REQUIRES an engine scanner to set the timing. A timing light will not work.

Most of the time when the timing belt fails on these vehicles it damages the engine. With todays dealership prices it is cheaper just to replace the engine assembly than repair the existing.


How much do it cost for a new timing belt and a Chevy caprice 1990?

Since this category is 305-350, I'll have to assume that YOUR engine is one of the two mentioned. The 1990 Chev 305 and 350 did not use a timing belt. They used a timing chain, and unless something really odd happened, you should never need to replace the timing chain until you rebuild the engine.
