Well, it is because Mr Kilmer choosen an easy engine to do it. I have an 1998 ford contour and i had to take out the camshaft cover, wires and spark plugs off, and had a hard time taking off some pulleys, in order to reach a f*king screw, and the water pump pulley had three screws. Besides, i had to lift the engine to unscrew a motor mount, take off the antifreeze tank and so. Then i had to align correctly both camshafts with the crankshaft, lock it up, unscrew and tight. A real pain in the ass, and everything done in the outdoors and during winter time.

I don't recall it making any noise. I replaced it for preventive maintenance, knowing a failure could not only leave me stranded but also ruin the engine. Back in 1988 I had a timing belt break on a 4 cylinder engine in a Ford Pinto. There was no noise warning me it was soon to fail.

Makes it look so easy...when I was a young mechanic I had a car (believe it was a chrysler 2.7, FWD) with a bad water pump. Had never even heard of a timing driven water pump at the time. It was a Sunday, so a couple of us less experienced guys were on duty(the A Techs had most weekends off...hell, they earned it). Car comes in on the hook and we and the rokkie advisor take it in figuring its a water pump...how bad can it be? Well...when I was tearing it down when I first heard/saw those four cams (V6 DOHC) snap into a different position I knew I had screwed up. This was in 2008 and me and that car are still married to this day... 😆

Timing chains break sometimes, too. This happened to me on an 85 Toyota pickup, an $800 repair. I decided to replace the one in my 90 Dodge Dakota DIY. I was told the chain on it would be more robust than the Toyota, which was more like a bicycle chain. However, the Dodge had 192,000 miles. The old chain had some play in it, but the new one is nice and snug. The motor is quieter, too. If it weren't for a little lifter noise, it would be pretty quiet for an American made truck.

I suppose he did not explain at length the importance of the markings and how they can affect the timing internally if one places the belt incorrectly. By marking the spot it just makes it easier to get it right when placing the new belt, takes the guess work out of the equation and besides he mentioned that you should do a dry crank of the engine to make sure pistons are not hitting the valves above.

And what's your level of salary? What goes around, comes around.. Lots of simple jobs are payed quite well which makes it affordable to maintain a relative healthy lifestyle.. Try comparing to Germany, or further south, with honest differences in price level & general living standards for lower education levels..

I can't believe that!!! I'm mechanic, in Serbia, here that costs about 60 euro :D (without parts)

I have a saying "the cost is worth the convenience" meaning simply, ill gladly fork over the money to a mechanic that knows what he's doing. Luckily for me i got hooked with a dealer tech that also works in the side. Dealer level service, half the price

What clever bastard designs engines with belts when chains exist, and to make it extra intelligent then makes it an interference engine.

Amr Nabil I was quoted no less than $1100 for the job on mine, for just $300 worth of parts (water pump, tensioner, pulley, actual belts) so I said hell no and started gathering parts to do it with my mechanic friend down the road on a rainy day

Wasnt telling you off just meant that it is a good idea on most cars. My dad is a mechanic and would never change a timing belt or chain without changing all pulleys and tensioners as the belt snapped in out renault scenic after we just did the belt, due to a failed water pump bearing. love your work.

I really like your videos. I would like to see an extended version of this with the full waterpump and tensioner/pulleys being replaced and how that affects how easy it is to reinstall. I replaced all those things on a 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor LS AWD and had a small sound but it seemed to just be the cover, but after driving it a couple of days and maybe about 100 miles, the engine stopped and left me stranded. Turns out the belt got caught and tore. So I want to know what could have been the problem. I'm not sure if the tensioner was on correctly.. One thing I noticed that I never did was turn it 2 times to make sure it was still aligned. Can you maybe help me with some advice?

Hey Scottie I have a 2005 chevy colbalt and I am hoping I can change the timing chain on this thing it look more complicated than the one in this video...kinda nervous about starting this project...but really cant afford to pay someone else to do it...so here it goes...we took everything apart and found out that one of the plastic guiders was broken so there was a lot of play in the chain...looked for just the plastic part but couldn't find one so we are going to replace both chains and the guides and the water pump and other parts while we are in there...my friend Nate is helping me actually he's doing most of the work and I'm assisting him he's been working on cars for 40 years so he has a lot of car time...and knows a engine inside and out...so I ordered the kit and will be putting it all back together next week...but thanks for all your info and videos they really help

@TheEgg185 11 жыл бұрын

lol. this WHOLE TIME i thought the rubber FAN belt WAS the timing belt. i thought it controlled the cam and crankshafts from pulleys outside of the engine. my grandpa told me that the timing belt was INSIDE the engine. i didn't believe him. i guess it turns out the old man was right. i learned something new today. thank you for this amazing video!
