What parts do I need to change theTiming Belt on my '98 (4 cyl) Odyssey?
The car only has 75K on it but it is eight years old. I am going to have my mechanic do it but he suggested that I get the parts and ask the parts counter what they recommend changing. He wasn't sure if the idler pulley should be changed, for example. I have never heard of people doing that on Hondas. I was thinking that I need the following: Timing Belt Balance Shaft Belt Water Pump Coolant Any thoughts? |

The idler(s) may need to be changed, but it is much more a mileage issue than a year issue and I'd expect it to be in decent shape after 75K miles. By the next timing belt change the idlers (yours has one for the timing belt and one for the balance, IIRC) will probably sound like cheap roller skate wheels and will need to be changed so they don't seize and burn through the belt from the back. They are expensive enough that you don't want to buy them if you don't have to. Some recommend changing the crank and cam front seals, since they are right there. At 75K miles that seems like overkill. But definitely do the water pump, because if it seizes it will destroy the timing belt and there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth... yours. Replacing the thermostat with an OEM thermostat is a good thing while changing the coolant. But even an old OEM like the one you have now is better than a new aftermarket 'stat.

Re: What parts do I need to change theTiming Belt on my '98 (4cyl) Odyssey?
I would add one more task based on experience with our '96 Odyssey. While
you've got the valve cover off doing the cam belts, this is a good time to adjust the valves. Also replace the valve cover & sparkplug tube gaskets, which are probably flattened out, hardened and preparing to leak by now.

I was already planning to do the valve adjustment and the new gaskets sound like a good idea. The thermostat was replaced about a year ago due to cold running. Right on the Honda coolant - wouldn't use anything else. I don't think there are any genuine Honda parts on the internet anymore. Any idea what would be a good price in the US for these parts?

Did you get to the following site (which is for the KAHMT version of your 83 FE), and is the "molding" listed there what you're seeking? http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/...LD-REAR+WINDOW For the 82 (3 door FE 1300 4-speed manual): http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/...LD-REAR+WINDOW I think Majestic's site (= hondaautomotiveparts.com) is a little easier to use when first checking for parts. |

I dunno as I think all the Honda (dealer) parts scheme was created in logical hell and I'm being punished for something I allegedly did (but really didn't). I guess the fact that Japanese read right to left and the back cover is really the front cover contributes to the confooshion... Thanks, JT |
