- Tech tip when installation setting the tension for the timing belt!
The spring on the tensioner actually serves a purpose!!
Use it correctly and slight at night knowing that you installed it all correctly!
Thanks for this explanation! With this method, do you not need to remove the valve covers and undue the cam bolts to set proper tension? I know the SM calls for this step for proper tension etc.
I have never had to release the tension through the rockers. What I do is set the motor to TDC, the. With the timing covers off, you can use the crank bolt to ever so slightly release the belt tension by gently rotating the crank CCW. You will see the belt gain slack.
Thanks buddy
No problem 👍
Do you have any tips on how to proceed if the cam gears are out of time, I'm doing my belt on a 33 rn and no matter how much I spun the crank the only two that would line up was the driver side cam and crank. The passenger just won't line up, always a bit off and my cams are covered in a couple other marking from the previous owner I presume.
Are you on Facebook or Instagram? Problem easier to help you if you could send me some pics! ;)
Can I bring you my Shiro special edition for much-needed maintenance and upgrades?
I couldn’t figure out how that spring went
I set the tension with the lifter tray unbolted so no tension on belt as im setting the actual tension on the TENSIONER. this way you dont get it floppy like Spaghetti.
