What parts are included in this timing component kit?

This Gates timing component kit includes the timing belt, the tensioner, and idler pulleys. These are the critical parts needed for a complete timing belt service.

Why is it important to replace the tensioner and idler pulleys with the timing belt?

The tensioner and idler pulleys guide the timing belt and maintain proper tension. If they wear out, they can cause the new belt to fail prematurely or lead to incorrect timing. Replacing them together ensures optimal performance and longevity.

Does this kit include the water pump?

This specific Gates timing component kit (TCK307N) does not include a water pump. It is recommended to check your vehicle's service manual to see if your water pump is driven by the timing belt and if it should be replaced concurrently.
