Just wondering, Are you talking aboput the timeing chain. The chain is on the inside of the engine behind a timing cover. If you have to replace it every 100 miles then you would have spent enough to buy a new engine. If you are talking about the rubber belt that runs around a few pulleys, then it's a diferent story. Could you explain what you mean by a timing belt?
