Timing belt change for 2000 4 cylinder Toyota 4Runner?
My recently purchased 2000 4 cylinder (2.7 liter) 4Runner apparently uses a timing chain rather than a timing belt. The vehicle has 87K miles. Does the chain need to be changed? If so, at what frequency? I have gotten conflicting messages in researching this subject.
