Timing Belt Question
 

Whats a good mileage to change it? I have an '06 4.2L SEL. It has 104,500 miles on it.

If to your knowledge it has never been changed, DO IT NOW!!!

Yikes! Anything else I should do to her while she's in there? (I did a tune up @ 99k).

.....Well, now I'm reading online, these vans have chains- not belts.

Can someone confirm?

No belt on a 4.2

Might give a general idea of what/when against anything you've already done..

Very helpful, thanks!

Hayapower, thanks for correcting my error regarding the belt when I should have known it had a chain.

They do have a serpentine drive belt. It should come due soon.

there are not belts on ford vans, timing belts are for jap crap vans not for fords, ford use chains.
