In this video, we discuss the crucial role of timing chains in synchronizing the rotation of the crankshaft and camshaft in an engine. We explore five common causes of broken timing chains and their corresponding fixes:

Poor Lubrication: Use the correct engine oil and change it at recommended intervals.
Manufacturing Defects: Replace the chain with a high-quality aftermarket or OEM part.
Worn Chain Guides or Tensioners: Inspect and replace guides and tensioners as needed.
Engine Overheating: Ensure the cooling system is functioning correctly and address overheating issues.
Lack of Maintenance: Follow your vehicle's recommended maintenance schedule, including oil changes and inspections.

To prevent timing chain failure, we recommend regular maintenance, using quality parts, monitoring warning signs, and keeping an eye on engine temperature. Follow these tips to keep your engine running smoothly and avoid costly repairs.
