If it ain't broke don't fix it.
My 4m's having been running with upwrads of 270 000 miles on them and I have had no issues with little maintenance. Just change the water pump it its leaking or not working, change the belt if its not running the alternator properly.
If the alternator is charging and the car runs I wouldn't touch a thing. Save your coin do a engine transplant and do some preventative maintanence on that motor.
You could do a timing change in the car but it would be a bitch of a job,
earlier 2M timing chain tensioners are metal and don't where anything like the plastic 4M/5M ones. Just a thought if you do pull it apart and find no teeth on the tensioner like i did once.
Just my 2c. thats after playnig with 2Ms and 4MS in MS5X's and 5ME's in 112's and now 7M powered MSx's
