Timing Belt - '98 BF50AW - When to Replace?

Hello all--

My motor appears to have the OEM timing belt (1998).

1. At what point do they get replaced?

2. Is this an interference engine (meaning if belt goes...so do valves!)?

3. What is involved in replacing and what tools are needed? My manual makes it look not too complicated, but timing may be more sophisticated in getting it right.

Thanks!
 
If you're concerned, just do it. If you have the timing mark locations illustrated, it's not hard at all.


And oh yah, if the belt goes the valves are toast.... at minimum.
