Hi Scotty, I have a 2009 Honda CRV EX bought a used one for 9500 with 140,000miles. I was wondering how do I know if it has a timing chain or belt? And the problem I'm facing is that if I don't drive the car for 2 or more days the battery died. I jump start it. And it works if I drive every day. I checked the battery and it's good, also the alternator shows good charging volt in the reading meter. Any suggestions? The battery is 1yr old

Chain.  If the alternator is putting about 14.5 volts at idle, it's good, but if the battery is going flat, it's either not taking a charge (have it load tested) or there is a parasitic draw you need to find.  Scotty has a great video on this.
