Title: timing belt needed
Post by: Ali Ch on 26 December 2012, 20:11:28
Hi every one, i have had my mig's timing belt snapping too many times. i have changed it for the 4th time, it snaps about every 3000 km,. the issue is there are no genuine parts here, not even high quality after market. all i can get from local market is chines knock offs.
so i have had it with the big repairs and decided to order a genuine kit.
the problem now is where to get them, i found some selling them on ebay, but they either don't ship to "my country" or did not respond to my questions. actually i made i deal with one and he just ignored me after i payed him via paypal (hopefully paypal were nice and decided to give me my money back)
so, i live in Iraq. any one know an online shop that sells them and ship world wide?
marry xmass by the way :y

Are you changing tensioner(s)?

If its a 4 pot, are you changing water pump?

If V6 are you using locking kit?

oh, its a 4 pot X20EX... and i do change the water pump and every thing, but they are so crappy that every time some other component just fail. and i think the last time the belt just snapped for no reason, every thing looked very nice. one of the times the cam oil seal broke and spoiled the belt (as the mechanic told me), the oil was every where :S.

post offices here are totally not secure, our options include UPS and dhl. once i received via global logistics, but the office moved to another building, i could not find them a few months ago.
