Before you tighten everything down, be sure to turn the motor two full revolutions with a socket on the crank and double-check your marks. Sometimes the tensioner will cause them to be off one or two teeth.

This is hands down the best video about this by far. Not sure why it would have any dislikes.

The cam gear spun when he let the tension back on the belt. It's not in time

@@travismaxwell7132 even thou we seen cam move what u didn’t notice is crank move at same time. The cam gear isnt locked in so so they will move once tensioner is released Turning engine by hand two full revolutions would have shown timing marks line up. Just did this yesterday on a ranger im working and just like video my cam-moved slightly but when i did two revolutions all marks were dead on.

It's a pretty good video but you want the belt tight from the other side of the engine, then let the tensioner take up the slack from the left side

I am the one who bought the tool for this job. It is not that expensive at all and makes the installation much easier...

I noticed that camshaft turned when you released the tention. Do the timing marks have to be dead on?
@finley6142 жыл бұрын
What u do is turn motor by hand two full revolutions and check timing marks. When i did mine using this same method cam also moved but after turning by hand two full revolutions all marks were dead on. If marks don’t line up then u would need to reline timing marks again etc

As long as all the slack in the belt is on the tensioner side you'll be all set

the book calls for additional 30 lb of torque on the Belt except nobody shows you how to do it

Please tell me if your oil pump had any resistance in it when turning by hand. Mine does about half a free turn half resistance. Thanks man Update, it's enough resistance to have to use a wrench to turn it on around the other half turn. Thank you guys my friend

Just be sure you use the sockets that fit...that's why it was "slippn".

Just think, still using such primitive very primitive technology on modern cars. And they still want to charge you at the dealership a fortune. Maybe, next time we go out to buy a car, we should bring up the prehistoric technology that sits in that $65,000 vehicle.

Where they put the timing mark on the camshaft has got to be the stupidest place to put the timing mark ever in the history of vehicles you can't see the damn thing when your trying to put the belt back on so when you put the belt on you end up putting it on wrong by 1 notch one single notch and you have to take everything back off DUMBEST DESIGN EVER HELL I EVEN PUT MY OWN NOTCH ON IT AT THE 10 O'CLOCK AREA WHERE IT'S VERY EASY TO SEE

There is a bolt hole in behind the AC bracket that you can run a bolt into and relieve tension on the adjuster. Saves a bunch of work.
