My 94 ranger had 230k on it on the original belt. Looked about like this too, sold the truck in 2018, still had the original belt on it.
My rangers belt was identical to this when I bought it at 210
Sold my 87 F150 Lariat, normal cab, 8 foot bed, 302 2 wheel drive, it had over 450,000 miles, sold it to a drummer, then he sold it to a pest exterminator company! Had 3 different radiators and 3 different alternators, timing belt replaced, otherwise pretty trouble free!
Use a genuine Honda belt if you decide to replace it, a new auto parts store belt will likely fail before that old Honda belt.
Who has the best deal on a genuine Honda j35 timing belt in Charlotte? Anyone know of specials?
I replaced mine at 80k when it was 8 years old and the belt still looked perfect.
My Ecoboost is supposed to have a belt replacement at 150000 miles or 10 years. I cannot fathom how it is supposed to hold up that long.
I had a customer who brought in a car with seemingly “authentic Honda” parts that failed prematurely. Lo and behold it was a counterfeit timing belt kit and the belt snapped sending everything else to shit.
There is a fault with these engines! The belt starts to break up prematurely, clogging up the oil galleries inside the engine! First sign of this starting to happen is your turbo starts to get louder, then siezes. Happened mine just outside of warranty (42k miles). Luckily honda footed the bill and replaced the engine.
change it. do it at the dealer, and don't use an aftermarket belt. I changed mine at the millage i was supposed to(70,000, i think), at a local garage, and he 'saved' me $10 by using a non-honda manufactred belt. fast forward another 30,000 miles and the belt broke. caused $3000 in damages to my top end, (bent valves, etc,) and was not covered by warranty (car, belt or manufacturer). it totalled my car.
