on a 95 model id say you got single over head cam so about 200 bucks to replace that one ,and that's counting labor and parts,its not a hard job but if you have never done one before its a real hard job to do and get it back in time,its better to let a shop do it than attempt to do it your self,good luck.How much would it be to install a timing belt on a 95 dodge neon?SOHC calls for 2.5 hours at the labor rate in your area.
DOHC calls for 3.5 hours at the labor rate in your area.
Price of the belt which differs for SOHC and DOHC.
Good LuckHow much would it be to install a timing belt on a 95 dodge neon?I'm not sure about the specific times but Tim is correct. The DOHC is more labour intensive so you need to know which engine you have in your Neon.
It is also a good idea to replace the timing belt tensioner and water pump at the same time. The reasoning for that is should either item go, it's a lot of work to replace them so you may as well change them while you are changing the timing belt.How much would it be to install a timing belt on a 95 dodge neon?Hi, the job pays 6 hours at whatever labor price the shop charges. It takes a while for anyone. Warranty pays 3, so you see why so many dealerships can't hire anyone, times are determined by either the manufacturer(warranty) or there are a couple of labor operations books for repair shops to use. A Neon with a standard 4 would be around 6 hours with DOHC, turbo pays an hour extra., a fair time. Most dealers only allow warranty time, ok. Tough but thats the way it is. It takes quite a few repairs to get a 40 hour work week. These times are called labor operations times. The books are available to anyone at a library or at the shop you bring the car to, its all about time. Some technicians work salary or by the hour, but it is rare in dealerships for a line mechanic to work hourly. The parts would add maybe 175.00 tops. okHow much would it be to install a timing belt on a 95 dodge neon?The chrysler warranty says you can do it in less than two hours, the mechanic at the dealer says you need four to five hours, the same for the mechanic at the corner. The dealership will charge you about $600 included the parts and labor,the mechanic at the corner shop will charge about half of that and the tree shade mechanic will do it for $200, the cheaper you go less warranty you have, I advise to replace the water pump that is behind the timing belt and replace the timing belt tensioner too, that will jack up the price but it is worth it, it is and old car and those parts may be ready to brake too. good luck

How long does it take to change a timing belt on an Oldsmobile Cutlass?
I don't know how many miles or the exact year. I think it's early to mid 1990's. It's my boyfriend's car and he's thinking of changing it on its own. I just want to know how long that might take.How long does it take to change a timing belt on an Oldsmobile Cutlass?I own a shop, and build many engines. A good experienced mechanic will take about six - eight hours. Some engines have belts, while others have chains, it just depends on which engine you are talking about. I know I may get some flack about how long it takes, and what the book calls for, but If a person does one, then one must consider the tool thing. How is he going to remove the damper from the crankshaft? Sometimes they will break, even using the correct gear puller on them. Some have a tensioner that must be replaced in them, so this job can turn into a nightmare for a backyard mechanic sometimes. Tell your BF to go purchase a %26quot;Haynes Repair Manual%26quot; from the parts store %26quot;before%26quot; he tries to tackle the job, or he may end up with a blown engine on his hands.
Part 2:
Many people on here over look the fact; the answers thing is world wide, and they are assuming you are in the USA. Like I said it depends on the engine as to the chain, or belt thing. The chains use a different type of tensioner. It has what is known as a wear strip on the tensioner, and if this is worn it will have to be replaced. It's not worth getting in a fight with your BF over %26quot;its a belt, or its a chain%26quot;! If it's his car, then let him work on it, and don't worry about %26quot;how long%26quot; it will take to do the job because; once he gets started on it, he will see it's a job he doesn't need to do, and that will be the end of that. Sounds like he wants to be a mechanic, and what better way for him to get started? Giving your BF some space may do more for your relationship than he will for the car. I think once he see's what he is getting in to, he will forget about changing it. One can love a puppy, but hold it too hard, and squeeze it to death.
Glad to help out, Good Luck!!!How long does it take to change a timing belt on an Oldsmobile Cutlass?as long as the mechanic feels it takes.How long does it take to change a timing belt on an Oldsmobile Cutlass?How experienced is your boy friend with mechanics? It is a six hour job if you know what you are doing. First thing to do before he starts tearing into the car is to find true top center on the number one cylinder. That is the compression stroke of the cylinder. Once that is established you will be able to remove the radiator and the water pump and hoses. Remove the valve cover where the number 1 cylinder is and watch the valve spring open and close on the number 1 cylinder. Make certain that it is the intake valve not the exhaust valve. Remove the timing cover and look at the posistion of the dot on the large gear. That is the gear on the top. Double check that it is on the compression stroke of the number 1 cylinder.
Line up the two dots on the new timing chain in the middle facing each other on the gears. Rotate the engine by hand until the dot on the large gear is at the very top in alignment with the lower gear. That is actual top dead center on the number 1 cylinder. Double check your work. Rotate the engine once again and watch the intake valve open then close. The dot on the large gear should be in alignment in the middle with the dots facing each other. After that rotate the engine until the dot is at the exact top in alignment with the lower dot. Replace the timing cover and accessories.

This isn't really a job that I would tackle in my driveway. It would take 4 or 5 hours if you are familiar with changing timing chains. On this particular engine, the oil filter adapter housing/pressure regulator is bolted to the side of the front cover in front of the R/S inner tripod joint. You must remove the R/S axle to access it.

Can anyone tell me how to change a timing belt?
My '93 chevy 1500 need a new timing kit its real loose and i got no power. How would i change it and up my power. thxCan anyone tell me how to change a timing belt?Unless you ever worked on a car before take to chevy, it should cost around 500-850 parts and labor, very hard job to explain and harder to do, even us vets hate doing them, you have to make sure you have motor timed correctly before you remove anything also, you need a few special tools, its not something you could just do at home on a first time, i would take it in. Now im not sure if that motor has a belt or chain to check simply look under hood a chain willl be sealed and oil cooled, a belt will be external and just have a plastic cover over it on outside of block you can usally peek inside and see belt, if you hear it slapping the top of timing cover then its past its time.Can anyone tell me how to change a timing belt?bring it to a ase mechanicCan anyone tell me how to change a timing belt?Yes, but you first have to have a vehicle that uses a timing belt.If you have a timing belt in that engine you have some serious issues. That engine does not use a timing belt. You obviously need to take your vehicle to someone that knows what they are doing.Can anyone tell me how to change a timing belt?Do you mean serpentine belt? You will have to loosen the alternator, remove the belt, install the new one, brace a crow bar against the alternator until the belt is tight, tighten bolts. Then check your timing and readjust if necessary.
