In order for your vehicle to operate as it should, there are several belts and hoses that function together. One of those components is the timing belt. This is located near your engine and is responsible for assisting the crankshaft to operate the camshaft. In the event that this belt breaks while you're driving in Madison Heights, it will typically result in your vehicle coming to a stop.

Another common belt is the serpentine belt. This delivers power to numerous essential parts including the power steering pump and the cooling fan, which aids in maintaining a stable temperature in your engine. You can visit 1st Choice Motors so that this belt can be checked to ensure that it's not cracked or worn.

The hoses in your vehicle tend to allow for air or liquid to flow through. A common hose goes to the radiator and has coolant flowing through. There are also vacuum lines that help to keep air from getting blocked in the engine and other components and fuel lines that transport gas from the tank to the rest of the vehicle so that it will properly run while in Amherst.
