Is the timing belt same as a drive on 2000 Camry?
The timing belt and drive belt are not the same. The timing belt is a toothed belt that connects the crankshaft to the camshaft. It ensures that the valves open and close at the correct time in relation to the piston movement. The drive belt, also called the serpentine belt, powers the components, including the alternator, power steering pump, air conditioning compressor, and water pump.
