Can't say I have on teh 3.4 Mike. I sold my Taco with 75K on the ODO so never changed it and on my 98 4-Runner with the 3.4 I went to change at 70K and it didn't need it so I drove it to 100K and changed it. It still didn't need it but going back and forth to TN I didn't want to chance an issue 30K over the the suggested interval. I hated when they started the timing belt crap they figured it out and went back to chains. With chains when the guides break and you hear them start slapping the covers its time to change it usually 200K into the break in :lol:

Its easy to take off the top TB cover and do an inspection of the belt thats what I did on the 4-Runner when I saw the belt looked good.
 
Looks like i be checking it out tomorrow after work .:bang:I only have 155300 mile on it.

I'd say you got your $ worth out of it :D
 
timing belts are made of rubber they don`t make noise they just go bye bye its all da udder stuff that they come in contact with that make noise:eek:
most prob the water pump or t/b tensioner or idler .
no matter though you change them all when you go in.
make sure its not an accessory drive first
take alt ps a/c belts off one at a time c if noise goes away if not :ban:

PS change the thermostat while you be at it
 
Thanks Paul for your $.02 . When i came home today the noise stop . I took off top plate and it look in side. The belt look little dry i say it time for a new kit.
 
I dont know, what sound does an empty wallet and two new heads make?

guess that depends on the sound the two heads are makin when you present the empty wallet to one of the heads:lol:
 
I did a timing chain years ago on my 22r motor . A belt looks a little easier.As long as you are at TDC on # one piston it should be o/k
 
Anybody here ever put a car muffler on a Generator? I have heard it quiets it quiet a bit compaired to the stock spark arrestor that they come with.

I have been eyeing the eu2000i hondas but after reading a bit it seems those are not able to run even a little 5000 BTU air conditioner without popping the inverters on them. I figure if I can get my 5500 watt generac quiet I could run the a/c plus lights, no problem. Hotplate for cooking would be nice as well.
