Nissan Timing Belt

Combustion is everything in your Nissan because it is the operation that creates the power consumed by your vehicle. Various systems work for power production to take place. The fuel and air are delivered by the intake and fuel system, and the ignition system supplies the spark that is needed to start the power production. And within these systems are vital parts involved to ensure that they work harmoniously for efficient combustion results.

Three of the components that perform very important functions during combustion are the valves, the camshaft, and the crankshaft. The intake and exhaust valves open and close to let fuel and air in and to let exhaust out. Controlling the valves is the camshaft, which consists of a cylinder bank with cams sticking out of it. The crankshaft on the other hand, is connected to the flywheel and works to transform the piston’s linear motion into rotational movement.

The timing of the camshaft’s and the crankshaft’s motion is critical to combustion. The opening and closing of the valves must be properly timed with the position of the pistons to ensure that combustion is kept into its utmost efficiency. In the engine of your vehicle, a very simple component is used to coordinate the movement of the camshaft, the crankshaft, as well as the valves – the Nissan timing belt. It’s a belt made from a reinforced band of teethed rubber. Controlled by the camshaft, the timing belt coordinates the camshaft to the crankshaft’s position to enable them to work as a synchronized unit. For every single rotation of the camshaft, the crankshaft must rotate twice, and the help of the timing belt, this is able to take place.

The belts are designed to last for thousands of miles, but they can also get damaged after some time. They can develop cracks or cuts which could result to poor running. When the damages in the belt are neglected, they may ultimately break and cause serious threats to the engine. When the belt breaks, the timing of the camshaft and the crankshaft will be destroyed, causing the valve and the pistons to collide with each other and end up also damaged. Subsequently, this will cause the failure of the engine and will render your Nissan useless, leaving you also broken because of the high expenses for replacement and repair costs.

Because damage in the timing belt may not be noticed easily, the best thing to do is to make a regular replacement. Compared to the great risk that you may possibly take when the belt breaks, replacing it regularly is actually the cheapest way. And when it comes to replacement, you can always trust Parts Train to provide you with high quality Nissan timing belt.
