Default 1997 astro van

Hi, Another thing to check before start spending money, Present it has 186,000Kms , when it is required to go for a Timinig belt change ? The Service mnaual does not show anything at all about this close to this milage. I got Wtaer Pump chnaged back @ 100,000 Kms ( was a different problem still got it replaced), Do not know if all the changing Plugs alongwtih Timing belt to be done together or not..
Pl. advice.

Thanks in advance.

you do not have a timing belt it is a chain ,you don't have to change as a matter of preventative maintenance ,unless you just want to tear the whole front of the engine apart ! you are getting some miles on it ,but i only Had to rebuild the head's on my sisters at 150,000 miles rebuilt engine at 200,000 mile's (they were hard miles ).
