Good day eh!! Craig this was a great explanation of how to change the timing belt and all the hoops that need to be jumped through to get the job done. Things like this amaze me. All the little markings and tools that are available for setting this up. A lot of thought and care to details have gone into this and this is on every engine not just a Volvo one. You did a nice job and the video stayed 'kid friendly'!! LOL Way to go. Take 'er easy!!!
When I have a car apart I say that I'm "saving gas" that day. This car has let me "save gas" several times since I bought it. Very handy to have the specialty tools at a discount price. Maybe you should take your tractor apart some day. That would be fun, eh?
@@GrampiesWorkshopYou could take the tractor apart and hold up one piece of it at a time during each of your other videos asking viewers to identify the piece and for tips on how to put it back together. It would be Fun!
I used this set once before when I installed the rebuilt head on this engine. Every manufacturer has their specialty tools and it is lucky that Amazon sells the knock-offs at a reasonable price. The right tools make for easier work. Thanks for stopping by, Marc.
Some super smart developed the parts that make this car or any vehicle run. Takes a smart dude like you Craig to make sure parts are setup and replaced properly to make sure it keeps running. Interesting stuff Brother!
Yes, Doug, you gotta hand it to the engineers who come up with this stuff. Not everything makes complete sense on these cars but Volvos are as tough as tanks. Still one of the safest cars on the road, they say. I have a bit more to do to get this running again, but it's close. All the best!
Thanks, Noel. Yes, it was sunny for a change. Our weather is slowly changing out of the rainy winter to drier early spring days. This summer will no doubt be another drought so I will enjoy the moderate weather while I can. This tensioner was a worry but now it's replaced and hopefully won't give me any more trouble.
@@EverydayProjects was the bearing bad in it making it tip to cause the belt to run of to the side. And the part the belt runs on, is it flat or does it have a little crown in the middle. 👋👋. Just curious.
@@noelstractors-firewood57The bearing seemed OK. I still haven't determined if the tensioner was at fault or if this is the way they all run. I'm still learning about these engines. They are different from so many others I've worked on. The tensioner is dead-flat, as far as I can tell. I'll be posting a follow up video and show the results/ Thanks for the questions. take care!

Właśnie znalazłem sposób na dodanie języka i napisy do filmów powinny być teraz po polsku. Dodałem także język holenderski i niemiecki. Najlepsze życzenia dla Ciebie z Kanady!

Thanks, Jason. I wasn't sure I'd get this job done this week because I stubbed my toe last weekend on one of the big outdoor racks of flowers in the Walmart parking lot. Then, when I got home, I tripped over a daffodil in the yard while looking at our plum tree in blossom. And, to top it all off, I slipped on the fresh, green grass on the way into the house. A tough weekend for sure!
What a gold mine of information. I’m just starting this hellish trip myself. At least my car doesn’t have a turbo. Thank you for the excellent vids.
@@dchampion5576 The playlist tab on my channel homepage has all my Volvo videos so far. Glad to be of help!

Like I said, 'fun' is one word to describe that!! LOL@@EverydayProjects
The right tools for the right job👍 A great how too video for anyone attempting this repair!
Well done Craig✌

Hey Craig. Nice work, great explanation too. Those were some tight spots to work in.
They’re not easy to work with but when it runs it’s a nice car

Nice job! Great explanation of the job. Cheers, Mike
Thanks, Mike. These old Volvos are fun to drive and a challenge to work on, but I'm getting better at this one after several repairs so far.
Nicely done Craig ✔️
Thanks, Steve.
Great fix Craig. Not raining today. 🤭👋👍🏻

Great job changing the tensioner. It does sound very fiddly to fit the belt
Yes, these can be a challenge. I hope the new tensioner tracks the belt straight.
