Timing Belt Replacement in Fresno, CA

Your car's engine relies on precise timing between the valves and pistons for optimal performance, and it wouldn’t be possible without the timing belt (or chain). This critical component ensures a synchronized operation. When your engine timing is off, turn to Electric Laboratories Complete Car Care for a top-notch timing belt repair.

Difference Between Timing Belt and Chain

Timing Belt

Timing belts are typically made of rubber, and they connect the crankshaft to the camshaft to control valve timing. Timing belts typically need replacement every 5 to 7 years.

Timing Chain

Instead of being made of rubber, the timing chain is made of metal. It performs the same function as a timing belt but generally lasts longer. Timing chains can still wear out and may eventually require replacement.

Our experienced technicians can replace your timing belt according to manufacturer specifications. We use high-quality parts and ensure proper installation as it is necessary for a properly functioning engine.

When Should You Replace the Timing Belt

When you reach the recommended replacement interval for a replacement, it’s best to take the proactive approach and replace it immediately. Otherwise, you can tell whether you have worn timing if it creates a ticking sound during operation. A failing timing belt or chain can also lead to rough idling, loss of power, or difficulty starting the engine.

A customer came in last week stating his blower was not working. After checking the blower circuit we found the blower control amplifier defective and replaced it. As a serivce to our customers we always do a Courtesy Check on all vehicles which includes a 50 point inside and out inspection. We check everything from the head lights, under the hood to under the vehicle and the brakes and tires. We found his tire tread to be below recommended specifications. We notified our customer and he chose to wait on the tire replacement. We phoned him 3 days later to thank him for his service and unfortunately he had a tire blow out 2 days after leaving the shop. Fortunately, he was ok and able to get the repair done quickly and get back on the road. We hate to see this kind of thing happen after someone leaves our shop but it's our job to inform the customer about EVERYTHING that is going on with their vehicle. It's our job and our moral obligation.
