Re: Engine timing belt replacement

IF and I mean a BIG IF--when you install the timing belt with the timing marks properly aligned (indicator mark and cam sprocket mark) AND the belt marks at the SAME mark, then it will remain that way, BUT it is NOT necessary to pay that much attention to the belt marks. Its just a nice and tidy way to do it. I did forget to mention that the crank marks have to be aligned also.

The cam sprocket arrow should actually be pointing straight up when the cams are properly aligned.

LISTEN to the experts or don't bother to ask advice.
