Mrrangerzr1 I don't know how to actually write you or get ahold of you , I have a question I need to see if you could answer or help me find the answer, let me know a way I can contact you please, ty
@@brianneff2760 hit me up on twitter @mrrangerzr1
Great video thanks
One of the best video. To the point with no nonsense talk. Even bolt torque was given. The best professional video on RUclips. Excellent.
This is the benchmark of DIY tutorials. No stupid intro, no loquaciousness, just critical instructional text, no nonsense
No music, no telling viewers about your cat, as far as I can tell no missed details. The best part is motor is out of the car so you can see everything perfectly. How much easier would life be if everyone made tutorial videos like MrRangerZr1?
Bloody well done mate!
Thank you so much! You made replacing my wife's belt a breeze.
Video is 3 years old, but it still remains as the best! You took the mystery out of replacing the timing belt on my 2004 TL; no more $1000 dealer trips. Now if only I can pull the engine to make it easier!
After taking my tlx for the connecting rod recall, the dealer quoted 1700 because the tensioner is leaking. 65k miles.
it is more like $2500 now in 2024.
Blah blah blah. That's exactly what was missing in this video, and exactly why your video was awesome! No mindless rambling straight to the point. Thank you!!
That's rigth, I watched other videos and there was a lot of confucing talking..
Hunday v6 santafe

Great video! This is how these videos should be made...to the point with no rambling. Thank you.
Now a days seems everyone loves to hear they're own voice.
This is quite simply a perfect video tutorial!!! Seriously! This should truly win an award! Clear, direct, no music, gabbing, chatter or clutter of any type. Precise video closeups of ALL timing marks, etc from an automtive perspective all done via cyrstal clear video from a filming perspective! It simply does not get any better than this! Even includes all tech info such as torque amounts for each bolt and links to all replacement parts. This extremely clear and thorough video log actually PROVES he didn't miss a single step! He has proven to me that I can tackle this job! What more can you ask for? BEST EVER! My personal thanks to MrRangerZr1 for not only the info I need, but I feel privileged to have watched an exemplery /perfect "DIY" video!!!
What they said.
I recommend putting the waterpump on then adding coolant to the radiator to see if it is leaking before finishing everything then adding coolant. Will save a lot of time, I learned the hard way..
Me paso a mi toco doble trabajo
How is this possible? You would need to get the car running and the temperature up for the coolant to cycle through the water pump to see if it leaks but all this you took out tons of components to get to the water pump and timing belt. Am I missing something here?
I changed the timing belt and water pump on my Saturn vue yesterday. It uses the Honda 3.5L engine. Took me 5hrs to do it, engine was in the vehicle. Hardest part was getting the belt on. Had to back off the tensioner a bit to slip the belt over it. Then tightened it back up. All I was using was ratchets as well. I saved around $400 by doing it myself. But I didn't think that it taking 5hrs was too bad, considering I have rheumatoid arthritis. My body is sore and I'll be feeling it for a few days, but I didn't have to spend money for a mechanic to do it
5 hrs?? Hard to believe Bro, particularly if you've never done it... ijs.
@@nolaguy1408 Study up on rheumatoid arthritis before you make assumptions. Then come back. I'll make it easy for you. Just search rheumatoid hands and find the image with 3 pictures of a hand. Mine are towards the end of the first. Now imagine how much that hurt and think about that pain in your feet, knees, lower back, shoulders, wrists and your hands. About 4 months prior to that, I had wrist surgery. So you need to factor that in as well.
@@simpleman806 Nah bro you misread me. I'm saying that 5hrs is fast as hell to do this job, without ANY ailment. I'm doing it now so not making assumptions in any regard. Wishing the best for your arthritis.
@@nolaguy1408 5 hours is not fast as hell. maybe you’re just bad at it. Acura/Honda pays 4.2 hour i believe to do this job
@@pushhrodd01 You have a point, I admit I've never been really fast at stuff, I'm a self-learned DIYer and one thing I learned the hard way is that having the right organization and tools damn sure helps. But when I finish, my stuff is done right and I never have to go back in. So "bad" is probably not the best term. If I was on somebody's clock then that'd probably be a different story lol.
I know this video is 2years old, but much appreciated in showing how detailed and simplistic it can be if you do things in order. Thanks for this tutorial.
What a fantastic idea showing it being done out of the vehicle. Makes it so much easier to see what’s being done. Great video
Yes once you watch this video you can do this in any honda acura v6
Yeah, that's the hard part though. Doing this in an Odyssey with 3 inches of clearance absolutely sucks.
Great video, as are all your vids!
I have two things to point out, however.
One: mark on the old belt the timing marks of the two cams and the crank and then transfer them to the new belt. Without those markings, an amateur could very easily find himself with a one-tooth off situation after he installed the belt and rotated the crank twice. The gotcha here is that there is slack between the crank and the two cams. The amateur didn't know. He thought that there was no slack, as the belt seemed taut enough to him, but there was! A pro mechanic does not have to make any markings. He has done so many. He just knows by the feel and the experience.
Pointing this out is EXTREMELY important, as most people watching or wanting to watch tutorials like this are amateurs. If they marked the timing marks on the crank and the two cams and transferred them to the new belt correctly--the teeth between the three marks are the same between old and new belts, it is almost guaranteed that they will get the timing correct on first try. Without this tip, they could easily find themselves in a one-tooth off situation, even though they had set the crank and the two cams at TDC before they rotated the crank twice.
Two: finger tighten the idler pulley and the tensioner pulley bolts first before you have installed the belt. I've heard reports that if you torque down the two bolts first, you might have trouble putting the belt on. After you have put the belt on, then torque the two bolts to specs.
Otherwise, great video! I learned a lot from your vids! Keep up with the good work!
The best video. The DEALER don’t show video like this with all torque. Congratulations thanks
Thanks for sharing! I was way more comfortable in changing my timing belt after watching your video, especially seeing how easy it was to align and check the alignment
GREAT video ! clear picture, clear screen written instructions left on long enough to read, and not one word said. GOOD JOB.
Watching this video again. I used it and other videos to successfully replace a Honda V6 timing belt last year. Replacing my son’s today.
Thanks for your video 👍 I’ll be performing this task soon on the wifey’s 06 Odyssey. Our mechanic who usually does this work for us has retired and moved out of state. So, I’ll be doing this on my own since he’s the only mechanic I’ve have ever trusted working on our vehicles for the last 20 years. The new guy who bought his shop reminds me of a used car salesman who would nickel and dime to death. I have the tools and some knowledge, but never replaced a timing belt on a six cylinder. With your video and and a Haynes book for reference, I’m confident that I’ll be able to perform this task 🙏
Hola Big Cat! How did you fare? I’d like to try this on our ‘06 Touring. The video says the Odyssey TB/WP would be in the description section, but I don’t see it. Is the job identical to this procedure except with only one cam sprocket? Did you run into any issues?
Wow....that was perfect. No talk, no stupid ass music, nice touch on the specs dropping in. We'll Done Amigo.
Thank you for the C-clamp trick to compress the tensioner. Very useful when the belt alignment needs rework.
Best practice is to replace complete job kit as all these OEM parts have a limited life!
TIP: Consider doing the "oil pump reseal" while main timing gear is out because engine oil pump will start leaking before 120kMi.
It's basically the timing belt labor + oil pan labor cheap $20 oil seals.
👍
G Lasser you just gave me another video idea lol 👍🏻
@@MrRangerZr1 Is this video available? I'm leaking oil. Thanks
@@stevehowe721 on the list. rare for these to leak, you sure it's not something else?
@@MrRangerZr1 if we have everything off, do you suggest to go ahead and reseal the oil pump? I’m at 150k miles.
Wow! You are AMAZING! You made this look so simple and easy. Thank you, Sir.
I’m not a mechanic but this video gives me the confidence to change my timing belt and water pump on my 2013 Acura TL. Thank you sir🙏🏼
Anyone after watching this entire video can do any honda/acura V6 timing belt.
It's not difficult at all as you saw. People online make a big deal out of it.
@@MrRangerZr1 Question: you posted the torque spec of the crank pulley bolt at 47ft. lbs and then an additional 60 degree turn. I've seen that spec before, but I've also seen another spec at 181ft. lbs. Are they both correct? I'm going to do this very same engine on my 99' Accord.
This is the best video I've seen for replacing a Honda timing belt. No talking, no wind noise in the back ground, just the nitty gritty of how to do it from beginning to end with parts descriptions and torque specifications. Just one question, how to I get my engine out to do this.......................KIDDING. :)
You get the point, but going to explain for the 100th time now for others. This video subject CANNOT be filmed in the car, look how much easier it is to show what needs to be done. Now after watching this video, you can do ANY J series in any chassis. Generally side motor mount and ECU needs to be moved out of the way, that’s it.
Did that same job; that engine's timing belt is super easy to change. I did freak out when my rear cam sprocket rotated a bit when the belt was off. Thanks for showing us how's it's done sir!!!!
That just happened to me! Still putting it back together but did it cause any damage? Mine rotated clockwise about seven teeth. Mine is a 2007 Odyssey 3.5.
@@mikeb5267 how in the heck did it rotate so far? And how did you fix it, just rotate it back by hand?
@@silversurfer702 it rotated that far due to compression in the cylinders. I moved it a little bit and then it jumped due to the compression stroke. And yes, I rotated it back by hand, no damage was done. However, after the job I found out that they have devices called cam grapplers that will keep that from happening so you can rotate it in smaller increments and get it lined up right. Unfortunately, mine lasted a few months after repair and then the belt completely snapped and the engine was ruined.
I've watched multiple videos on putting the timing belt back on and starting at the crank sprocket and this is the best and easiest way to do it
WHO thumbs down a masterpiece like this?
Great job, my friend...
And as always, please, give us the torque specs in metrical system as well! 😉
"great job" to the uploader or the thumb-down guy? LOL
Don’t be lazy plug in the specs to a converter in google. He is doing enough already.
@@brycelund7155 Really? Google does that?
Ricardo Ramos just look up foot pounds to Nm converter. (If your not joking)
@@brycelund7155 I was joking, man! Thank you for your sincerely tip. I ask him to put this information on his videos just because it would be easier for people who are used to metrical system.
You aced it with this video, every comment is positive! I have a 2004 Acura TL and this is a job that I Can Do! Goodbye dealer! Thanks for your video.
There couldn’t be a better video in all the world on this. Amazing simplicity and clarity. Are all Hondas this simple?
Best video on this subject. Everything is so easy to see. Thanks so much. I’ll be using this video as a guide when I change my timing belt next month.
You brought sense and clarity to all the other videos! Thank you so much!
Memories of when I was a Honda Tech. Great video
Very much straight to the point. An act of professional excellence. Many thanks
Great video doing my Odyssey very soon. Have all the parts ready to go. Oh you forgot to show engine removal. Lol Thanks for showing Artie 👍👍👍
Yeah this video shows a timing belt replacement with the engine removed, which most of us won't do. But its a good video to watch if you plan on doing this job. As far as seeing the timing marks and know the exact size sockets to use. Most of the people that made vids on this with the engine still in the car are very hard to see anything. Also he gives you the torque spec on every bolt.
@@DK-bm5rg exactly the goal of this video
Great video!
A few tips based on situations I've encountered:
1. A spark plug replacement is usually done at the same time. Leave them out until after the timing belt is done to make the engine easier to turn manually. It's also easier to feel problems.
2. Before rotating the engine manually after installing the belt, check the timing marks. If the rear cam has jumped a few teeth (which is common), remove the belt from the cam and move the cam back to the correct position using the bolt. It only needs to be moved a few teeth unless it has been accidentally rotated too.
3. Even with the special socket, the crank pulley bolt often requires a 1/2 inch or larger impact gun with around 1000 foot pounds of removal torque. My older 650 ft lbs pneumatic wouldn't budge it, even at 120 psi. (Of course there are other other non-impact tool options too.)
I used the Ingersoll Rand weighted socket paired with a Nitrocat 1200k and haven't encountered a crank bolt thats hard to remove (yet) and I've done 5 timing belts on D and B series engines. But maybe J series is torqued a little higher? Idk but I think the Ingersoll Rand weighted socket is worth the investment even for the price especially if you're a Honda technician.
if one of the cams jumped a few teeth how would you correct that? Do you rotate by hand? can you rotate it in either direction(cw or ccw)?
Excellent video. I did my timing belt and water pump replacement on my Odyssey around 2 years ago. Simple straightforward job just need to have a little patience and make multiple checks. I think getting all the air out of the cooling system was the hardest part.
What do you mean getting air out? I'm about to do this job and would appreciate the advice
@@MrFlipCash getting all the air out of cooling system when you fill antifreeze and run the car. It's a big cooling system and takes time to remove all of the air. If you run the car at idle and add as needed to fill radiator completely you shouldn't have a problem. Honda blue antifreeze 50/50 mixture. This video is excellent to go by.
@@davidstreamo5005 thank you very much. I just googled it and appreciate your help
Thank you for actually providing all the torque specs!!
A lot easier when the engine is out of the car. Good job nicely done!
I recommend to remove the spark plugs after installing the belt, it will create your engine rotations alot easier when triple checking your timing marks
Yes. During this service, the spark plugs should be changed anyways.
Valve clearance is also supposed to be checked according to my manual.
Thanks for posting this video, really helps all my Honda issues diy fix, been random car repair and they couldn’t fix the issues
One of the best that I’ve seen so far out of all the videos I watched yours was the best. Yes it’s easier when the engine is out. Absolutely anybody knows that this is not taught you. It’s towards other people that comment.
Thank you very much. You did an amazing job presenting this procedure to us, so much attention to details that you even covered the other engine components for us to visually concentrate on the timing belt procedure. More power to you.
Very informative! Short and straight to the point! Thank you, brother!
Thank you for this video! I could do this job if the engine was out. You've convinced me to have a mechanic do it. Props to a great video.
You can do it inside of any car after watching the entire video.
I showed it with the engine removed because whatever I filmed is impossible to film in the car.
Generally just the side motor mount, ECU/Fuse box has to moved out of the way.
Watch this every day. Take notes. Gather new parts. Layout tools. Eat a decent breakfast. Say a quick prayer. 3/18/23 is the day, I will do this.
The best professional tutorial on RUclips. Thank you so much!
I dont know why you don't get more subs. You're the best diy outthere!
Share the video!
MrRangerZr1 of course. You think replacing thr V8 timing belt would be similar too ?
Simple Habits similar process at the end of the day
Can someone PLEASE get this man an award!! Benchmark of what RUclips videos should be. I hope you feel good about yourself dogg because you should! I find it a bit ironic that people jabber in their videos in hopes to help understand yet fail to do so; and here we are with no jabbering with compete clarity and understanding, AND torque specs! I'm an anal, ocd, patience less individual and RARELY RARELY do I find something the way it "should be". Pimp job sir!!
Good job!!
I have needed to dew this to A truck that has been sitting for A few years and I have been scared!!
You made it look so ez!!!!!
Great Little Video... Not as Simple in the Vehicle... But also Very Helpful to understand the Process. Thanks for Sharing
This is the best video I've seen for this job!! You even gave all the torque specs!! Just subscribed!! Thank you so much! 😊
Great video men !
The tensioner failed while my wife driving 10minutes from home and she've drived it back home .
So now I'm just doing it in a gravel parking lot , with no airtools , in a country were rust is a big issue , with rain pooring in my plumber butt crack ( I'm not a plumber )...
Belt and tensioner was replaced about 50000km ago by previous owner , but its a chinese stamped parts ...
I wish I was doing it on the workbench in a warm place like you 😤🥶
Good thing it didn't do too much damage to the point it would have bent valves if it skipped
lol...
Best and most useful tutorial on RUclips. You fine sir, are a gentlemen and a scholar 🥃
Thank you! Not sure if I'll ever do it by myself but thank you anyway! Great DIY! ;)
Very good video, I did this job a few years ago in my van. It was not too bad. The j series are very reliable
I wish I had seen this video before I changed the timing belt on our 2006 Pilot. I'll be sure to refresh my memory with this one when I have to do it again.
Great video! Just the facts. No needless blabbing. Made my job easy.
Great video! Nice to be able to actually *see* everything without all the other stuff in the way. I so wish it were that easy to remove all the bolts, parts, etc... I'm pretty convinced that this is not something I would want to tackle in my DIY garage. I know it's awfully expensive, but this is something that I will leave to the Honda mechs. Still... interesting video! :-)
Generally the power steering pump and motor mount has to be out of the way. It's not too hard as people make it seem like
@@MrRangerZr1 Yes that should be done first...! I fought working around them until I found this tip.
You are amazing, Thank you so much for shearing this beautiful execution with us!!!!!! I want to see more videos with this kind of content!!!
Well Done!!!
What a civilized way to change the timing belt and related components, compared to the barbarian method of doing it with the engine in the vehicle. Only problem is getting the engine out and back in.
Excellent presentation, and still helpful to those doing this job the barbarian way.
This is doable in the car. I just filmed this outside the car cause it's impossible to film this inside the car.
I am just a lady with constant car issues and now my latest is a broken timing belt. I am going to "attempt" this on my own. Although I wish I could get my engine out lol. But this helps to know where everything is. I will study this for at least a few days before attempting...
If your timing belt ripped, then the cylinder heads have to be removed because the valves will be most likely bent.
Excellent video! Well made and straight to the point. Thanks for posting!
You are one of the best MrRanger thank you again.👍👍
Absolutely love the video! Couldn't show/explain it any better!
Great video, getting ready to tackle my 2014 Accord. The visual is always helpful. Thanks.
Thank you for this clear and to the point video now I'm confident I can keep my Japanese Lambo going! Thanks again!
Calidad de video nada de estar hablando me gusto esta clase de mecánica saludos 🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳🇭🇳
BEST VIDEO HANDS DOWN! Thank you so much.
This vid is awesome! I hate how most videos on timing belts are an hour long and only show about 2 inches of the block at a time because the camera is so close
Exactly.
Great video and thank you for the links. I bought the kit. I would not recommend anyone to reuse the tensioner. The one on my Honda pilot doesn’t not have good tension anymore and my belt is loose. Luckily i catch it on time before it came off.
3.5L Honda very good 👍 200,000mi. Runs so smooth.
Yes sir reliable strong motors
Now this was a really good idea. Much better point of view than trying to video while in the vehicle 👍🏻
Exactly. Now you can do any J series in the car
All I gotta say is thank you. Best video out there.
The best one out there yet by far thank you
Great video straight to the point and better ideal of how it comes apart and go back to together .
Yes impossible to properly film this in the car.
Very helpful video! Quick question, how easy is it to accidentally rotate an individual pulley when removing/installing the belt? And would you be able to just rotate the other way back into line if you did so?
About to do mine this weekend. This was perfect!
Best video in term of land marks like the mark of the front cam sprockets at cylinder #1 TCD and rear cam sprockets at cylinder #1 TCD look like so I can refer back to my job. Very nice torque specs given in the video so i can get and torque them down without looking at the manual.
My only regret is that the motor is still in the vehicle. LOL looks pretty darn easy otherwise❤❤❤
Thank you so much for this video most people they talk a lot and they don’t do nothing
Thank you sir! I will attemp this on my 2010 acura tsx v6. I fear the cams might move on me as it always does with every timing belt I've done. Hopefully I manage this with the engine still in the bay!
Short video but one of the greatest ❤
This would have been the only video I watched, had I watched it first.
Best video I have ever seen on the subject. I have a 2010 honda accord v6 with 72000 miles. There are no engine issues with the car but I hear that the timing belt should be replaced at 105000 miles or 10 years whichever comes first. Obviously the ten years came first. What is your advice as to what I should do at this point.
I would replace it at this point
For what year and model of honda this technique is applicable? Your vedio is amazing. Thank for sharing.
Almost all honda/acura with the J series v6 motor
Professional and quality workmanship at wirk!!!
Definitely replace that tensioner while you're in there! Nasty sound when they go bad!
Definitely a must
LOL The best of the best omy I just watch this again to another broswer just to give it another like :) well deserved. Thank you. I didn't have the money to go get my car fix, because a light that says "check battery charging system" and car start doing all kind of glitches etc. and woudn't move. Thanks AGAIN FOR CLEAR VIDEO.
Now just need the video showing how to take the engine out, LOL. In all seriousness, great video, I now have a clear understanding of how this is done - thank you!!!
Impossible to film this in the car, that's why did it outside the car. Now you have a clear understanding. Thanks for watching
Great job! video was a lot of help getting the job done!
Best video ever! Doing mine today😅
Is this the same as a acura rdx 3.5 engine? Thanks Gr8 video
what did you do with the tensioner pin after it was removed?
Thanks for the video and knowledge, really helpful keep up the good work Respect from Canada
Thank you!! This was very helpful and easily understood, internet high five ✋
that socket is a lifesaver
damnit my dudes, the timing cover is borked on mine, gonna have to look for one
any junkyard or just get a new oe
@@MrRangerZr1 going to honda, junkyard will probably have me doing the job twice
Excellent, as always Mr ranger!
Now this video I enjoyed very much watching.Hands down the best and no words said ...luv itttt
Great video, straight and on point. Thanks for your time.
Excellent video. Smple and easy to understand.
Awesome video to the point and exactly what I needed to see.
