Replacing the Timing Belt on a Ferrari 348 GTB

Model: Ferrari 348 F119 - Years 1989-1994
Part: Timing belt

Replacing the timing belt is certainly one of the most critical maintenance tasks on an engine, as even a minor error in timing can compromise engine performance or even cause failure. This is an 8-cylinder V engine at 90°, where the central crankshaft controls two banks, each with a double camshaft. It goes without saying that timing requires not only specific expertise but also the availability of special tools and technical information to check the position of the pistons and valves based on the crankshaft position.
