Hello,
I just bought an IDParts high mileage timing belt kit that someone had not used, and when it arrived, I realized that it had originally been ordered back in 2015. Parts like the bearings and rollers and water pump I can't imagine degrading just sitting there, but I've seen discussion that the belts themselves have a miles/time interval because they can degrade over time. So, is it worth buying fresher belts and/or any other bits, or is that just overly cautious?
Thanks for your thoughts.
