Genuine Mazda 2 Timing Chain

The Mazda 2 Timing Chain ensures that the camshaft and crankshaft are in absolute sync with each other, delivering a smooth burst of reliable power throughout the rev range of the subcompact. This chain is made of high grade steel links and operates in a constant oil bath that ensures it does not stretch easily, unlike conventional rubber belts, and thus the owner can spend many years driving with it without having to replace it on a regular basis. It has been perfect in all generations of the spirited 2 line, dating back from the early DY models to the current Skyactiv models, as the engineers adjusted the chain length and guide configurations to each engine but applied the same proven operating principle. Short block layouts reduce noise with short drives, long revs with full length layouts, and provide a flexible architecture to ensure fixed crank to cam positioning. The Timing Chain saves on long term ownership costs since it does not require any long term scheduled swaps. Insulating the valve timing at any speed, the chain also increases the precision with which the engine combusts, thereby improving throttle response, improving fuel economy and reducing emissions so a Mazda will pass the current efficiency standards. Safety is also boosted as the accurate timing of the opening of the piston valves, when there is a high load, avoids piston valve contact and the possible occurrence of expensive internal damage. A self-adjusting hydraulic tensioner ensures that the slack is kept at a good level, and even the cars of generation 2 that are oil-starved provide a warning signal that the time is running out and this built in feature is valued by the daily commuters and the weekend enthusiasts. It is these strengths that have given the Timing Chain a reputation for exceptionally durable endurance in the greater Mazda family and the reason why all of its current Mazda powertrains continue to count on this simple but advanced part to provide them with worry free performance within the city streets and on the winding back roads.
