The belt in the Asin full kit (pulleys, water pump & belt) I installed on my 2000 ej205 earlier this year lined up perfectly.
Get an AISIN timing belt kit with water pump. Uses OE parts. Don’t use gates, dayco, and esp not no name timing belt kits.
Be sure to buy an Aisin timing belt and water pump kit. If it has an automatic transmission, replace the radiator as well or add an external transmission cooler.
I had the belt service done on my 2015 last year at a shop in my area and it was about $900 parts & labor using Aisin brand belt & accessories as I specified. Consensus on the Pilot owners' forum is to use either Honda OEM or Aisin brand parts only.
I just had my timing belt and water pump replaced as well, but I bought the Aisin kit myself off of Rockauto.com for around $270.
The OEM Ford belt I replaced in a 1992 Escort looked better than that when I did it a year ago. Quality matters.
I’ve done them on Toyotas with more miles than this and they weren’t even starting to crack.
I replaced the original belt on a 1997 ranger 2.3 last month it looked about the same and had 126,000 miles
Id stay away from that motor. It uses a wet timing belt. Not a great design. Expensive to replace and will only last about 100,000 miles.
The newer Ford EcoBoost engines are notorious for their wet timing belts failing and clogging the oil pickup, thus killing the engine.
