HELP! SUB 88 DL WAGON Timing Belt ?

Featured Replies

Ok I had some help and figured out that the timing belt broke. I thought is was electric problem but it is not so......

 

I have replace the timing belts in the past but, I cant remember do I rotate the crank shaft first 360*. Then line up the mark for the drivers side belt then put on the passenger belt.

 

OR

 

1st 360* rotation on the crank shaft pulley

2nd Line up drivers side belt mark. Loosen belt on drivers side.

3rd Line up passenger side belt mark. Then tighten both belts.

so that drivers side mark is up and passenger side mark is down or visa versa when your finished...

 

 

YIKES!!!

 

I know one you sub-peeps out there has a manual. The one I have sucks

Install first belt. rotate 360. install second belt

 

make sure the disty is at #1 by lining the first cam up, before making any rotations. The disty will line up to #1 after rotating past the crank alignment mark 30 deg afterward during the 360 deg rotation.

 

use the hash marks for the cams and not the 0 deg mark

 

use the 0 deg mark after 2 full rotations of the crank (one rotation of the cam) to set the ign timing
