How to change timing kit, MultiJet and JTD 16V and 20V engines. How to check sync. between cams

- Hello guys! Here is my way of replacing, adjusting and checking timing on these engines. This video will cover the 1.6 16V MJet, 1.9 16v MJet or JTD, 2.0 Mjet 16V and even the 2.4 20V Mjet or JTD engine.
This makes my list of timing belt and chain videos, which is here a little further down in the description, much more complete.
It's an easy timing to do, in fact, but it's also easy for it to be poorly synchronized and out of place. So, if one cam is out, both are out!

very often when we have one tooth misalignment there is only one problem with though cold start and p0340. No more symptoms. I used to possess ar 147 with 1.9 16v jtd cf3 engine, and my mechanic changed timing belt system without using blocking tools ( they just made white dots) and every singe winter there was a problem with p0340 error and heavy cold start. Every single mechanic is maintaining that engine should not generate full power or smoking more than usual. It is not true. Remember always use block tools. Now i posses 159 with 8v engine.
I am watching your channel since you've started recording. thx.
You are a book of knowledge Bruno.
Please do share
Just keep doing what you do great help to the less fortunate but guys like you are out there looking out.👍
Dear Bruno,
Thank You for the video, I am happy to see it. I am about the change the timing belt on my "new" / recently purchased 1,9 V16. This video was a life saver. You explain even minor details. Your work is much appreciated lad. Keep up the good work. Cheers
Thank you very much for watching and for the support.
Please share with your friends
We are about to finish The work. The water pump had high somekind of glue under it… we used none, since You advised so. Any chance for leak/ or what is The reason they glue it?
Thanks cheers
It became common practice, unfortunately.
Thanks for nice explanation... small info related to the number of teeth on GT if anyone is interested (euro3 engine have 198 teeth, euro4 engine have 199 teeth).
Thank you very much
Its very sad that you are closing channel. You very good at this! You explainit very very well.
Thanks, informative . P.S I have put my belt in wrong direction, but markings alligned, it works
Thanks for watching and sharing
I give you bonus you are saving them thousand of pounds for mechanics how to do the work properly without smashing the engine, lots of garages they will not undertake this kind of work for the risk if they don’t know what they are doing
Appreciate your channel and your videos. You have helped me many times. Thank you
Yeah, me too.
Amazing knowledge, just impressive! 👏🏼
Thanks for watching
Excellent this is the best 👍
Another great video Bruno
Thank you
Hi, Bruno,
unbelievably useful video as always. My question is do you zip tie the injector connectors as a precaution? I know they can go faulty and that's a quick fix, but do the zip ties give any effect before connectors fail?
Your channel is awesome. Lots of useful information. An incredible amount of things are explained. I have been working on the car myself for some time now. Your video really helped me to do a major service on the 1.9jtd 8v. Thank you allot!
I wanted to ask if there will a chance maybe for a video, how to change the turbocharger on the 1.9jtd?
Thank you very much! Take a look at this:
ruclips.net/video/C9izYtWsvEU/видео.htmlsi=UL1zMG0JkKJd-te3
Excellent work as allwasy
Thank you so much for watching and for your support!
Dear Bruno
Thank you so much for this video which clearly illustrates your extensive knowledge and experience!
I have just changed my cambelt and auxiliary belt thanks to you on my 2016 Giulietta 2.0 JTDM 170BHP UK spec.
I also changed the waterpump as recommended
I would like to change and flush the antifreeze/coolant but I cannot see any drain plug at the bottom of the radiator?
I presume that I need to cut off the "one use" hoseclip on the bottom hose with a dremel tool (its difficult to access)
and then drain and refit hose with conventional hoseclip. Maybe not difficult but it is with poor access.
Please do you have any better suggestions?
Thank you
Jonathan
Hello. Thanks for watching and for sharing your experience.
Yes, on the diesel Giuliettas no drain plugs are there. Just remove the lower hose and try to blow it all out with compressed air. Thanks for watching
Great videos, thanks!
Trying to find mjet head replacement video, is there one yet?
I have one for a 20v head out. Will have the assembly of that head on the next month
Bruno, one issue with your Chanel might be, that your videos are hard to find via YT or Google search function. I tried it several times with „Alfa Repair“, „Alfa Tutorials“, and many other words and combinations. Maybe, this is one of the issues you have?
Maybe also use the „Shorts“ to give 60 second help. Maybe trie to work together with other RUclipsrs!
Your repair instructions are so helpful for me. Not all of them are linked for my car, but always giving hints, for potential issues.
Don’t give up 👍
Hello. You are correct, and not the only one with that complaint.
I give s a lot of effort to to titles and descriptions that have those words. But it seems that as I have low views, other channels are preferable to RUclips.
General search words do not work. But I know the specific ones do.
Try: "how to replace..."
In the meantime I already told RUclips my concerns and that issue too.
@@alfaromeonoproblem Do you type the keywords as tags as well? That is very important.
@DashCamSerbia full box every time, since the beginning
@@alfaromeonoproblem :(
@@alfaromeonoproblem I am interested to hear about the feedback from RUclips. They should be interested in helping you.
I hope you will get all the support what is needed to continue with your channel. I know from other channels/youtubern they are working together. One hand helps the other. Maybe that also a way?
Aqui no Brasil tem muito esse motor, no Jeep Renegade e Fiat Toro
Do common rail system pumps need their position to be taken into consideration for the timing?
Some do, others do not. For this engines do not. Except the 2.2 Giulia and stelvio
Thank you for the excellent informations. I want to ask if the locking tools are the same for 16v and 20v?
The other question is: You have to remove the engine for timing belt replacement in alfa romeo spider 2,4 diesel?
Hello. Yes the tools are the same, for the 2.4 20v yes, the factory said to remove the engine. Bit you can try not to
Wow I watched a few videos about the timing belt change out of curiousity before and never seen that whole adjustment process, very interesting!
Why did the customer decline Paraflu UP? Surely not because of price, I bought 4L of it for 34€ on blackfriday in preparation for a service when it's a bit warmer in spring
How often should you change these parts, mine was supposedly done about 3 years ago, i think about 60kkm ago, but don't know if i trust the seller anymore from all issues i've uncovered on the car hehe
Hello again. At the time I only could get the paraflu UP at the dealership. 18 euros a liter, concentrated.
E needed 2 or 3, the price was too much.
I recommend replacement at 5 years or 100 thousand Kms.
@alfaromeonoproblem Saving what, not even half a tank diesel worth, to get the correct coolant seems like an interesting decision to me.
I get all my deals on autodoc, if you keep stuff in your cart and check price daily, you can get some pretty great deals, I managed to snag a valeo clutch kit with release bearing for 220€ for the 1.9 16v, day before was 290 and day after 270 haha
Good to hear, so they still should have some life left, i will be changing the belts in summer of '25 then :)
@EndstyleGG the wages are very low here in Portugal. People have the mindset to spend as little as possible. Even not using coolant at all
@alfaromeonoproblem Oh yeah, i understand that very much, i also tried to cheap out on that power steering pipe, about 5 people told me it's gonna be fine and now im down 80€ and got a vibrating steering. Cheaping out tends to cost much more in the long run, learned my lesson.
Still need to figure out if a slight vibration is coming from the dmf or injectors, need to watch some more of your tutorials hehe
@EndstyleGG I will have videos for all of that in this year
I do the same I leave it just little bit more than the hole the tensioner
But the belt can make a noise and after one week goes away
Hello. Thank you very much for watching and for the support. Please share with your friends
Merci
Thanks for watching
Great job as always. I have a problem in my 156 1.9 16V with the whole car jerking when starting from a stop. I replaced everything (dual mass flywheel, clutch, engine mounts, driveshafts, slave cylinder, clutch pump, etc.), unfortunately with no improvement. Nobody knows how to fix it. Apart from that, the car drives great. Where can be a problem? Greetings from Poland
Hello. What brand of clutch did you used?
@@alfaromeonoproblem New Valeo set with Ori dualmass fly wheel. No improvment. After some time i sent clutch for checking and covering in Kevlar to recomended company, with next used dualmass flywheel in perfect condition and low mileage. Still no improvment 😐
@PawelK93 make sure the clutch set is not fake. Use only Valeo for the clutch set and the flywheel too. On autodoc they are usually fake.
@@alfaromeonoproblem Yes, but problem before and after replacement twice is the same 😐
@PawelK93 that's odd. Is the clutch pedal hard? Is the engine shaking when shutting off?
Where can I buy the special tools from?
Or shall I make them myself?
Any workshop tools store will have them
Helppp 😅ive turn crankshaft without the belt on , I'm stupid i know but what to now pls pls
Turn it back without hitting the valves
Do you know which is the best FIAT oil quaility standard for direct injected, non-turbo, chain driven petrol engines like the JTS?
Newer and better than FIAT 9.55535-H2?
Probably something Ester based. Those are the best ones
@@alfaromeonoproblem Very little available here in Serbia.
@@alfaromeonoproblem Should I then just stick to Selenia? Which one to use then? The old Selenia Star. or Selenia K Pure Energy, or Selenia Star/K MultiAir, or Selenia WR (Wide Range, for lower temperatures), or... So many different products, but without clear differences between them. It is very confusing...
@DashCamSerbia in fact it is. You can to a engine oil website and see what oil from that brand is good for your car.
@@alfaromeonoproblem I know they give their recommendations, but does not mean they are the best for that engine. Selenia gives all three options, for example. But I have no idea what is the difference. Oh well...
Is it the same as the 2.4 JTDM 159 ?
Exactly the same thing. No difference at all
@@alfaromeonoproblem we needed this video
At how many kilometres would you charge the belt?
Do you know what is the brake
That it will brake at what kilometres?
@BK-it6te you should replace at 100 thousand or 5 years
please help me, i change timing belt for alfa romeo gt with engine number 937A5000 i get 198 teet belt, and on the belt is only two markings for crank and cam shafts, i see on your video you have belt with 3 markings for fuel pump, when i done engine i do not make fuel pump to any markings, now my car is runing in limp mode, can you help me and give me the timing belt part code to me to order proper belt to alingh all markings nicly like you done
Hello. I did said on the video that the markings are not crucial. They are just there to make sure you can adjust the pulley. The hi pressure fuel pump can be in any position. But you can put it on the assembly position. Like I referred in the video. What codes are you having?
engine is without any trouble code, on computer looks like everinting good, i have low power on low rpm, later when turbo spoil i have maby 70% of power, but if i drop rpm down i dont have power to acelerate, and if i push pedal down is going limpi and coming black smoke, now i think maby any hose have hole or somthing with air coming to engine, i dont know, before i change cambelt i have lots of power now nothing:(
@viliusparsonis5070 ok. So check out the vacuum lines and the turbo pressure. Check out my videos for that.

Today my crankshaft pulley snapped from the rubber and the auxiliary belt came off and went in the timing belt and snapped the timing belt luckily it was on an idle, do you think the valves are bent or the valve followers are broken?
159 only 70,000 miles
I never seen such a bad engineering point Alfa should have put a cover to stop the auxiliary belt getting in the timing belt like all German cars have
There is a reason for that ruclips.net/video/k6mLgKuv4fc/видео.htmlsi=k6VLWmIL6GGevekd
Thank you so much but I am still having problems. I line up top with the insert tool , line up the bottom with the tool, adjust the tensioner then rotate a couple of times and the crank is always 10 to 15 degrees out . I have done it 3 times now and tearing my hair out . Any suggestions? Have just sent a donation. To you thanks
Hello. Did you replaced the timing belt and what more?
@@alfaromeonoproblem yes I replaced it sometime ago and all was fine. Then I changed the manifold for one with new swirl flaps but when i put it back together I was getting p2012 code and one for camshaft sensor .. which I replaced … to no avail . (when i did the manifold I took the belt off) I also went through every possibility including a new flap solenoid, checked wiring and the action of the swilr flaps. No difference so I suspected I had got timing out … which I had …which was confusing the swirl flap signals. So I have set about retiming but although the top wheel and crank are locked in synch and tensioned it goes out when I manually turn engine 3 rotations … It looks to be about 10 degrees out at the crank - Thanks for any help.
@grippingyarnsuk that sounds like a wrong size pulley, did you replaced any of that? Is the belt the correct size?
@@alfaromeonoproblem I am wondering if the belt is different an wrong. It is an 06 1.9 jtdm 16 v 150 hp 159 with metal plenum , so is that 199 teeth ? ( I did order it off of the vin but they might have screwed up) When I got the car I changed the belt immediately and all was well. When I renewed the intake I got a new belt ( as I was worried I had stretched the old one ) and it hasn’t been right since. Sorry for these essays .
@grippingyarnsuk did you compared the old with the new? Is the te tensioner hard to set? Is the belt too loose or very difficult to insert?
Corteco is better than Elring and Victor Reinz?
Hello. Like all things, depends. Corteco made them for this engines, for other engines was elring, and so on.
@@alfaromeonoproblem Thanks.
Why to much time started?
I don't understand
@@alfaromeonoproblem Why the engine took too many seconds to start?
Hello. I did remove diesel pipes and tubes. Air was in them
