The timing belt is a toothed belt that replaces the timing chain and timing gears used in earlier designs. The timing belt is used to drive the camshaft via the crankshaft. Because of its toothed design, the timing belt maintains synchronization ("timing") between the crankshaft and camshaft. The timing belt requires no lubrication.
