SUBARU3 Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 After a fresh timing belt installation on a 2.2, is it normal for them to break-in a bit. I noticed some wear on the edge of the belt and some "belt fiber-dust" in the freshly cleaned timing belt cover. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 I'm really not an authority on the EJ22, but what you're describing sounds OK to me. As long as there isn't a ton of wear or dust, or any weird noises, it should be normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBARU3 Posted October 21, 2005 Author Share Posted October 21, 2005 It seems to be on the outside edge. Not bad really, but noticeable. About 500 miles since installation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al_SemC Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 I would imagine the belt would break in some. Typical of any moving part, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
