Timing Gear Sets

A timing gear set connects the crankshaft to the camshaft via belts, chains, or gears. Car Parts 4 Less stocks cheap timing gear sets for every car.

A timing gear is basically a pulley. It is part of a complete timing gear set and it drives the belt, chain, or gear. This in turn synchronises the cycles of the camshaft and crankshaft. The timing gear is set to the exact speed required to open and close intake/outtake valves within the engine at the right time. The timing gear should be set to open the intake valve at the exact moment that the piston moves down into the cylinder wall. This optimises the amount of air entering the engine, which in turn boosts the power you have at your disposal. Worn timing gears may fail to move at the correct speed, affecting performance and even harming your engine. Buy all the parts you need to replace the faulty component with a low-cost timing gear set from Car Part 4 Less.
