1997 3.3l Engine -> Timing Belt? Drive Belt?

  

benzinger -> 1997 3.3l Engine -> Timing Belt? Drive Belt? (2/2/2008 4:33:32 PM)

Hi,

can somebody tell me if this 3.3l Engine has a timing belt? I heard somewhere that only the 3.5 has one. And another (possibly stupid) question: What is the difference between a timing belt and drive belt?

Thanks very much

Chris

Drive belt turns the alternator, power steering pump, etc.  Timing belt turns the cams in relation to the crank.  A 3.3 liter has a timing chain, not a belt.
