i have over 220,000 miles on it and i wonder if the gears are steel or nylon ? do these chains need replacement or what .
thanks
 






!! :eek: 220,000 miles on an SOHC? Holy mother of god that's a lot of miles on that motor. *Clears throat* The timing chain should never have to be replaced, but I suppose that you could replace it just to be safe.
