SKF Timing Belt Kits Technical Overview
Catalog 457702 2010 SKF Timing Belt Kits Technical overview In today’s modern automotive engines, there has been a quiet revolution. The need to run more auxiliary equipment such as water pumps or injection pumps, combined with efficiency demands and noise reduction, has caused new timing belt and tensioner systems to be developed. At first, tensioners were of a fixed nature, usually of metal design. They were simple to install: just set tension and tighten. Today, tensioners more likely include an internal spring or external damper, and non-metallic components are becoming more common. This illustration provides an overview of a modern timing belt and tensioner system. Engine-front wheel drive Belt Camshaft pulley tensioner unit Timing belt Injection pump pulley Water pump pulley Idler pulley Crankshaft The crankshaft drives the camshaft(s) and actuates the valves via a belt or a chain. Due to its advantages compared with those of a chain, namely reduced space, as well as lighter and quieter running, the timing belt is widely used by many car manufacturers. Belt tensioner unit (TBT) Idler pulley The belt tensioner unit sets the right tension and provides guidance for the belt. The idler pulley is fixed and allows the belt to be correctly wound around the driven component. The adjustment of tension during mounting is achieved by means of an eccentric Main designs currently used are shown here: or by means of a spring acting against a rear plate. The automatic belt tensioner unit, with its built-in spring and friction system, maintains a constant tension of the belt while the engine is running. -

1 Fundamental Car Groups, 1981-2011
FUNDAMENTAL CAR GROUPS, 1981-2011 (Shared Body Platforms) 1. The first line of the definition assigns a five-digit number to the car group; the first two digits indicate the manufacturer, based on FARS codes (1=AMC, 6=Chrysler, 12=Ford, 18=GM, etc.); the last three digits are sequential and generally chronological for that manufacturer. 2. The second line assigns a name to the car group and gives the limits of the range of model years for the various make-models in the car group. Car groups are often named after the largest selling make-model with that body platform and/or the wheelbase of that platform (to the nearest inch). 3. The third line shows the wheelbase of the cars in that group, as derived from "New Car Specifications" in Automotive News or Ward’s Automotive Yearbook. 4. The remaining lines list the specific make-models included in the car group, including a five-digit make-model code, the make-model name (plus additional specifications such as "4-door" if not every car of that make-model is in that car group during the specified time period), a range of model years, and the VIN characters that identify specifically which cars belong to this car group (V3 is the 3rd character of the VIN, V34 is the 3rd and 4th character, etc.).
