| Hi guys, so I have stock 1991 Chevrolet Caprice wagon with a 305 V8 and around 200K miles on the clock. Is it time to change the timing chain? | |

| If the engine is having timing problems, then worry about it. The chains have been known to last 400+K miles. | |

Are you a former or recovering Import guy?  | |

| Pretty common maintenance on those 4 bangers,keep those belts changed for prolonged life. Tongue and cheek comment at your "Capricefreakness" "Meant" as an attempt for humor,loses a lot in translation...  | |
