Gates.com would come up but not the above URL. Their server that handles this may be down for service, this being Sunday morning. I did a search and came up with this:
"Regular belt replacement is especially important on Acura and Honda engines because almost every one of these engines is an interference design! The only exceptions are the 3.2L V6 in the 1998 and newer Acura SLX models, and the 3.2L V6 in 1994 and up Passports. With Toyota, there is less risk of additional engine damage because the only Toyota interference engines are the older 1.5L Tercel, 2.4L Pickup and 1.8L Camry and Corolla engines. Apparently, Toyota engineers were more generous with combustion chamber clearances than Honda engineers." http://www.aa1car.com/library/2003/us70343.htm ------------------------------------------------- > On 8/18/07, archer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Which Japanese/Korean cars are "not" valve benders? >> Thanks, >> Gerry >> --------------------------------------------- _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
