The timing chain is a crucial component in an internal combustion engine, ensuring that the engine's valves open and close in sync with the movement of the pistons. Unlike a timing belt, a timing chain is made of metal and is generally more durable and longer-lasting. It operates in an environment of high heat and pressure, which makes it essential for maintaining proper engine function. Regular maintenance, such as oil changes, can help prolong the life of the timing chain. If a timing chain fails, it can lead to severe engine damage, making timely inspections vital for vehicle longevity.
