In your engine, valves over each combustion chamber open to allow fresh air in, close during the combustion event, and then other valves open to let out the exhaust. All of this happens over and over thousands of times a minute when you are driving around Plainfield. The timing belt’s important job is to make sure that all of this happens as it should – at precisely the right time.
