1999 S70 GLT Timing belt kit

Post by scot850 »

A friend is about to do his timing belt, so has asked for some guidance on parts. Normally I only use the Volvo kits. However, recently I have seen kits from Aisin. They supply the water pump, what looks like an INA mechanical tensioner, as well as an unbranded idler pulley and a Mitsuboshi? timing belt.

Anyone used this kit and have any feedback on it? I have recommended Aisin or OE pumps only as well as INA tensioner and OE/Corteco cam seals.

Thanks,

Neil.
