Every 45,000 mies. Change the water pump every other time you change the cam belt as it is driven by the belt. Warning:This is an interference engine and if the belt breaks serious engine damage will occur.
it has a timing chain, not a rubber belt. no need to change unless necessary
it should have a timing chain
The 1990 2.4L 4cyl mighty max has a timing BELT. Very easy to change.
It does not have a timing belt. The cam is chaindriven.
If it is noisy, the engine timing is hard to maintain, or the engine is performing poorly, it may need changing. Timing chains are very durable and usually last the life of the engine or until it needs an overhaul.
timing belts on Honda and acura motors should be changed every 70,000 miles, otherwise you run the risk of the belt breaking and bending valves
Very.
The same way you change the timing belt. the water pomp runs off the timing belt. It,s a pain in the butt.
no the're fine
the timing should be set top dead center with the number one spark plug
There should be timing marks on the pulley & you simply align them. Crank at 12/cam at 6.
Many Fords of that vintage required that a jumper be placed on a socket near the distributor. Without the jumper in place it's not possible to change the timing of the engine. Install the jumper, set the timing with a timing light THEN remove the jumper and it should stay. You'll need to get a reference manual to identify the jumper location and to determine the proper timing advance settings.
