The timing belt, serpentine belt and coolant hoses are vital aspects contributing to a healthy Toyota engine. The timing belt is responsible for allowing the crankshaft to move the camshaft. This belt is also essential for making the valves work in unison with the engine's pistons. In addition, the serpentine belt is responsible for supplying power to the compressor, various pumps and other parts. Failure of the timing belt can lead to total engine failure, while the failure of the serpentine belt can lead to overheating and eventual engine damage. Both of these belts should be inspected regularly to ensure quality. Hoses are also vital, providing necessary coolant flow between the heating block, radiator and engine. Through eventual wear-and-tear, however, they are prone to cracking and bursting. If your coolant hose busts, your engine will quickly overheat. Make sure you look at these parts often and check of any signs of damage, and also pay attention to the temperature gauge in your vehicle.
