Don't thrash the car and stretch the belt. She'll be right.

Just thrash it. It won't stretch the belt and break.

I can't tell when you're serious or joking sometimes lol. You must have a dry sense of humour only thing I can think of haha.

You can't really break a timing belt by "thrashing" an engine.

Bens right...that guy is a dick....no way could you see the sort of fluctuations he is looking for on a timing belt.  More likely be due to induced feedback in his light cos he is using the same vehicles battery as a power source.
