Gates 97-99 Acura CL/ 94-02 Honda Accord Timing Belt Component Kit w/ Water Pump

Gates is a well-known name for reliable engine components, and this timing belt component kit with a water pump is a solid example of their work. If you're working on your 1994-2002 Honda Accord, 1997-1999 Acura CL, 1998 Honda Odyssey, or 1998-1999 Isuzu Oasis, this kit addresses a critical maintenance item that keeps your engine running smoothly.

This kit bundles the essential parts needed to replace your timing belt system. It includes the timing belt itself, tensioners, and idler pulleys, all designed to work together to keep your camshafts and crankshaft synchronized. A properly functioning timing belt is crucial; if it breaks or slips, it can cause serious engine damage. By replacing these components together, you ensure that everything is operating within spec and reduce the chance of premature failure of any single part. The included water pump is also a smart addition, as it's driven by the timing belt and often needs replacement around the same mileage. Doing it all at once saves you labor down the road.

When you're tackling a timing belt job, it's a good idea to have a service manual handy for your specific vehicle. This kit is designed to fit right, but following the manufacturer's recommended procedures will ensure the job is done correctly and your engine stays protected.
