Timingbelt question

[Camryrunner08]

Ok my car ( 97 le v6 ) has 141,000 miles on it and I have has since it 133,000 miles and Im about to have the timing belt and water pump replaced on it becouse it has never been done.

you will feel a differnace but no actucal gains


before i get cut up.

i did my timing belt and the old one was very strecthed.

now i have to get from 95 south to 896 to glasgow 9if you know where i am talking about you will understand better.

the on ramp is a up hill the peopel comign on 896 to go to 95 notrh have to merge into the exit as we are comign off the exit. so before the timing belt i had to hit the gass pretty hard to merge into 896 to get past the slower truck iwould say abotu 80% throtle.

same place that i go every day after the timing belt it only took about 50% throtle to get to the same speed

the car shifts better because it would lose power in betweeen the shifts now hen i push full throttle it shifts better(meaning it stays in the power when it shifts.

and that is not my imagation becasue my dad drove the car alot before i vcould drive and he even said that is had more passing shift power becassue it doenst go from retard to advance with the slach. I had a tooth of a bigger belt. because the old one strecthed

Most likely you will never notice the differance. Timing belts do stretch regardless of what people say.
