Gates 97-00 Acura EL / 02-00 Honda Civic/93-97 Civic Del Sol Timing Component Kit

If you're working on the engine of your 1992-2000 Honda Civic, or your 1993-1997 Civic del Sol, this timing component kit from Gates is a solid choice. It bundles together the essential parts needed to replace your timing belt system, ensuring your engine's valves and pistons stay in sync. This is a critical job, as a broken timing belt can cause serious internal engine damage.

This kit includes the timing belt itself, which is made with a reinforced rubber compound for durability. You also get the tensioner pulley, which keeps the belt at the correct tightness for optimal performance and longevity. Importantly, this kit also includes a new water pump. Replacing the water pump at the same time as the timing belt is a smart move because they are often driven by the same belt and are located in the same area, saving you from having to do the job twice.

When you're doing a timing belt job, it's always best practice to replace all the related components at once. This Gates kit makes that straightforward by providing the key parts you'll need in one convenient package. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's installation instructions carefully for this procedure.
