How do you change a timing belt on a 1998 Chevy Cavalier?

A '98 Cavalier Z24 has a timing chain, not a belt. Currently in the process of changing the water pump, and the timing chain is involved. We are looking at replacing the chain while there because it is a very involved process. You should get a Chilton manual, well worth the money. Will let you know more after completion.

How do you replace timing belt on a 1998 Chevy Cavalier Z24?

If it is like the older 4cyl motors, you would need to take off the timing belt which drives it...not that small of a job The Cavalier 2.4L DOHC does not have a timing belt. It has a timing chain that circles inside that flat cover on the passenger side of the engine. It goes around the crankshaft gear,water pump gear,exaust gear,intake gear, in that order. Its not hard if you know how to do it,BUT you MUST know how to do it. THERE IS NO ROOM FOR MISTAKES... So ask people and study.

How do you change the timing belt in a 1991 Sunfire?

My friend, it is important that you get a shop manual for this job, if you are the one to do it. It doesn't take a rocket-scientist but one has to know much about how an engine works and safety. Now, if your'e asking bcuz you are going to do it and kow quite some on the subject, You really need to consult with a shop manual. Your question indicates to me that you have never done this work. So be very careful and good luck. There is no 1991 sunfire, it was the sunbird until 1996. Actually, the Sunbird only went thru '94. The Sunfire showed up for '95. (I know, I own one! :) Well correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think the Cavalier/Sunbird/Sunfire had a timing belt I thought they had timing chains. If I remember correctly thru 94 cavalier 4cl has the timing chain and sunbird has a timing belt. 95 and up cavalier/sunfire has a timing chain.
