2002 CRV with 91,000 miles. Did some routine maintenance this weekend,
and was looking through the owners manual to check the recommended
time and/or mileage to replace the timing belt. I saw no reference in
the manual for replacing the timing belt. Did some checking on-line
and read that in 2002 and newer, Honda went with a timing chain. I was
not aware of this (my '04 Accord - V6 - has a belt). I was just
looking for additional confirmation from the experts here. Is that
correct? The 2002 CRV does not have a timing belt that needs
replacement? Thanks.

Yep. The belt went out with the B20 engine, whose last year was 2001. Your
K24 has a chain.

Unlike the old-style chains of yore, the CR-V's chain has a really long,
slinkily curved tensioner that won't wear down like the old tiny "shoe"
tensioners did.

Change your oil according to the schedule in the Owner's Manual and the
chain will last the life of the engine.

Is it a duplex or single row chain. That can affect life.

It's a silent chain, not a single or duplex.
