have a 2003 kia rio and am looking to change the timing belts. Is it fine to change just the timing belt itself, or should I go for a timing belt kit and change the tensioners and springs too.
Belt alone should be fine, changed loads never found a tensioner yet that was gone, kia use proper metal rollers, unlike euro boxes that use fragile plastic ones!
