Title: V6 3.0 Cambelt Items
Post by: estaszew on 05 December 2007, 20:44:52

I'll need to change my cambelt soon on my 98 Catera.  I am wondering if the kit for the 99-00 is the same.  Specifically, I am looking at the ebay auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Timing-belt-tensioner-kit-for-99-2000-Cad-Catera_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33625QQihZ001QQitemZ110201621428QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW.  Does that have everything I would need?  I don't think I need the water pump though...?  Also I am planning on replacing the aux belt.

In the UK, we get more in our kits - we get the pulleys as well.  Not sure if you should  :-/

I would replace water pump every other cambelt, so every 80k miles

Not enough in that kit, it needs the idlers as well as the tensioner......still at the price, its worth it just for the water pump!
