What cambelt is the best quality out there (or are they much of a muchness ), how often do folks change them and any horror stories

 

I got told the gates timing belts are good. I ordered one from PJ motorsport and they supplyed me a gates belt. If your changing the timing belt you might as well change the tensioner to.

 

Yep gates belts are spot on and you must get a tensioner no questions

 

I got a Gates belt too, there was a post in general discussion some time back discussing how good Gates belts were. The end result was they were quite good.

 

I used to work for toyota and they used to use gates belts as original dealer parts.

 

I always use genuine Ford ones, pretty sure they're Gate's too?

 

Gates are the OE manufaturer.

 

Thanks boys

I was putting in an order with Ford ... so it looks like a new tensioner and OE cambelt is on the list

 

Yeh i would mate for peach of mind.
