What is a Cam Belt?

A cam belt, also known as a timing belt, is a reinforced rubber belt that connects your engine’s crankshaft to the camshaft. It ensures the valves and pistons in the engine move in perfect harmony. Without a functioning cam belt, your engine’s timing would be thrown off, potentially causing severe engine damage.

What is a Wet Belt?

Wet belts are similar to traditional cam belts but are submerged in engine oil. This design reduces friction and extends their lifespan. However, wet belts can still degrade over time due to oil contamination or extended use, and regular replacement is essential to prevent breakdowns.

Signs Your Cam Belt or Wet Belt Needs Replacing

Replacing your cam belt or wet belt at the manufacturer-recommended intervals is crucial, but there are also warning signs to look out for, including:

• Ticking or unusual noises from the engine.

• A misfiring engine.

• Oil leaks near the belt area.

• Trouble starting the engine or poor performance.

Ignoring these symptoms could lead to catastrophic engine failure, so don’t delay—schedule a replacement with GB Autotech today.
