Just purchased a 2001 Tundra with a 4.7 V8 119,000 miles. here is my dilemma: absolutely no record if the timing belt has been done or not. So if its original, I am seriously worried. I know its a interference engine so I am worried, don't really want to even drive it till I get a status on the belt condition. Any way to get a peek at it before I pull it in the warm hanger to do the job just so I can drive it? Can a guy pull back one of the cam covers just to look at the rubber to see if its eating itself up to buy a few days? Also does the crank pulley always need a puller, or will a few lite taps get it off the crankshaft? Thanks, love this forum!!
