If this truck had a timing belt, it would have been replaced 10 times.

Thought about buying one of those back in the day. Glad I didn't now.
Their forum is full of idiots. https://www.mazda3forums.com/threads...-chain.289960/ |

Yeah, an MZ3 and an MS3 are opposite ends of the spectrum. That being an MZ3 forum with a Speed subform, I would tend to agree.

Come on... Don't BS. You know it's true and now you're changing up the discussion. Normal people don't pay attention to "service intervals." Timing chains are WAY more tolerant of neglect than belts.

It's in his nature to be obtuse, c'mon now. If the goal posts aren't moving, what would the grounds keeper do all day?

Usually I'm pretty good at skimming over the petty bullshit. Sometimes I'm weak.

Guess the belt snapped on my Eclipse snapped after less than 30k miles cause I didn't follow the service manual and replace it.

Anyone who thinks timing chains are free from service intervals may have a rude awakening on their horizon is all I'm getting at. Or maybe not. Maybe ICEs will be outlawed before it happens to you. |

Changing the discussion? How so? "Normal people" are the reason we have self driving cars, and 70 year speed limits. Don't be one of the lowest common denominator types. Don't be normal. Do your routine maintenance.
