HI there,

Mazda used a timing chain in the early cars have you given us the correct year? And what engine is fitted?

It's a timing belt not a chain for a 1986 Mazda B2000 seires. Is it a free driven motor?

Hi there,

Was thinking it was a passenger car not a B series van, these engines will bend valves, so I would slip on a new belt and do a comp test just to make sure.
