Where can I find timing cover gasket set - 02 LTD?
I've found only the LH upper from Ishino, but I need gaskets for all three covers, my gaskets all crumbled when I pulled the covers off.
Also, I'm expecting to find a replacement O-ring for the big water tube at the industrial hardware store, but I haven't found one yet.
Is the dealer my only option?
BTW, my timing belt has never been replaced in 130K, but it looks really good, not a crack to be found when bent back...maybe it's the moderate SoCal beach weather

No plug seal, though
Any way of knowing how old the belt is? Usually if it has been changed there's an indicated date scrawled somewhere in the engine compartment. If you're going by looks alone, you're driving on borrowed time if that is an original equipment item. Your mild temps also come with a lot of corrosive salt air.

Bought the car with 20K on it, so I can say it hasn't been replaced in the 110K I've put on it. Really amazing though, I even used a magnifying glass, the belt is in really excellent shape. There was was a fair amount of black dust on the covers and cam sprockets etc, so there is wear, just no cracks or visible marks.
I keep it in a garage, and many miles are long distance, guess I'm surprised cuz everyone replaces theirs at 60K, I thought I was on borrowed time.
Thanks for the referral.
