Belts And Hoses

Belts and hoses are required parts under the hood of your Ford vehicle that all perform various tasks. A broken or loose belt in your vehicle's engine can cause internal damage to your vehicle. Some of the belts in your engine are known as serpentine or drive belts. These belts bring power to the air conditioning compressor, the power steering pump and the water pump. The hoses in your vehicle carry different types of liquids throughout your vehicle. These liquids include the fuel you put into your vehicle, your coolant and your transmission fluid. Your vehicle relies on every single belt and hose to help the major parts working as they should. Everything is connected, and therefore, everything is important. Your radiator hose, for example, is tasked with the job of keeping your engine area cooled down so that overheating doesn't occur. Your timing belts let your crankshaft and camshaft work in sync with one another. Belts can break overtime and become loose and hoses can often crack and develop leaks in them. Although belts and hoses often last a long time it is very important to check them frequently for cracks and leaks. It is equally important to check to see if they are too tight or loose. Preventive maintenance is always best and doing these checks can save you time and money in the future. Please shop our webstore for quality OEM belts and hoses for your Ford vehicle.
