Gates TCKWP186 PowerGrip Premium Timing Belt Component Kit with Water Pump

Best quality materials out there! The water pump is forged instead of stampped steel like cheaper pumps are. Everything fits exactly like factory and works perfectly! Make sure for the tensioner you realize there shouldn't be a bolt in the tab to the left that is for locking it while you are installin the belt (you don't even need to do that). If you put a bolt in there the tensioner can't do it's job... Also replace the balancer shaft seal and get the brace that was made for it (honda had a recall). If yours wasn't done during the recall it is a ticking time bomb waiting to lock up your motor and only cost $7 and 10 extra minutes while you are in there. I also always replace the front main seal too to ensure it doesn't start leaking in the future. All and all this is a great kit at a great price, highly recommend... FYI This kit was installed on 97 honda accord SE.

Paid full price for opened box missing water pump o-ring gasket. Send back to order again. Probably costs more in fuel then the whole kit is worth. Good job 👏. Delayed my PROGRESS

Good parts, good price. Successful timing belt swap but only one of the tensioners is a koyo, other is gmb

i only use gates belts and hoses when possible in my cars and my customers cars,same belts the dealer offers but a lot less money. most oem belts are made by gates. i have been useing the timing kits for a couple of years now they are just as good as oem if not better.

the kit came with everything i needed. install was a breeze, if you have the right tools, knowledge, and patience

Replaced everything in my cooling system and timing belt system last July. Radiator, hoses, thermostat, cap, water pump, timing belt and everything else. Water pump just went out! Pouring out of the weep hole. Didn't even make it 15k miles! The old pump I replaced wasn't even leaking. Now I gotta change it all again. And I do know what I'm doing, I've been an ASE tech for 15 years...

The tensioners are made in Japan by Koyo and Gates makes OEM belts for a lot of car manufactures,and you can see and feel the quality of this belts.So this kit is as good as OEM if not, better.

great parts
