EA82 timing belt path on cam gear


Recommended Posts

Yesterday I noticed that the right side tb is riding a little closer back. It's not rubbing against the cover but you can see the shiny wear pattern that is more centered . I just put a new tb kit on yesterday.  I have successfully changed my 1991 Loyale EA82 timing belts 3 or 4 times the past 10 years or so and all was good.

UPDATE *** I just read previous posts on same subject. Will check belt tensioner. 

FWIW. Last tb kit was Japan. This time from ITM (gotta be from China)

One edge of the belt could be slightly shorter than the other forming a taper. Might've been out of alignment when ends were bonded. "Might" just stretch to shape later.

Mi(gh)te is a small irritating insect. ;^)

+1 for what Dave T said.
