there's a much easier way of getting the timing belt on without the extra pry tool needed. you actually start with the crank first, then left cam then right cam, leave the top pulley off for now. you might have to adjust the cams to line them up, then with everything is line up, just pull the slack down on top and bolt the top pulley back on. its so much easier this way

Hahahaha thanks, I've done this job more than a dozen times and still forget that. Thanks for being concerned, I don't like doing stuff over. I learned a trick from a viewer that makes this job even eaiser. Leave the top idler pulley off till the end. Put the tensioner pulley on but not the tensioner. Start at the crank mark and put the new belt on , then to left pulley, then to right pulley, then on down to the crank again. Just place the top idler in place, tighten and then install the tensioner. So easy. I cannot believe I never thought of that. Thanks to that viewer for sure. And thank you for watching and commenting. If you have any questions please hit me up. Let me know how it turns out if you don't mind. Much appreciated

If the belt broke while driving, take everything off to get to the belt. Set the crank at the proper location (line up the dot with the arrow).

I’ve got to do this to my 98 Tacoma asap. Waterpump completely let go. Ordered the full AISIN kit for it and my front crank seal & cam seals from Toyota due to oil leaks. Watched your video a few times as well as others and a few forums, going to be a fun job with motor still in the truck none the less haha. My question to you would be, is there an alternative way to remove the crank pulley without having a proper puller? I’ll have to do all the same work to my 97 4runner down the road so it woulf be a wise investment to have all the necessary tools on hand I know, just on a tight budget right now
@funjunkiegarage11 ай бұрын
Thank you for watching my video, I hope you found it informative. It's a time consuming job more than it is difficult. I'm sure you'll do fine. No you don't need a puller. That said, the pulley is not press fit, it has a key way and should slide on and off. But I often find them a little stuck on. I use a puller because I have one. You can often get them off without a puller. If you find it to be stuck you don't want to hit it too hard. Your local auto parts store will "loan" you a puller. You buy it and when you're done, return it is how that works. Let me know how it goes, feel free to message me during the job if you should find the need. Thanks again for watching and for asking a question. I appreciate your support of my channel.

@@funjunkiegarage Crank & TDC stay's in the same location Just the 2 cam pullies want to kick back about half a tooth it's like it has compression & wants to go one way or the other. I have also watched Timmy the Toolman videos & he said there is a bit of pressure when the marks are lined up. Some people leave the tensioner loose to help put the belt on I've tried it this way but not with the bolts tight . Also the plugs are out. Could the belt be one tooth off. Should I pull it tighter.
@funjunkiegarage Жыл бұрын
Hmmmmm I seriously doubt the belt marks are off. Moving only slightly I wouldn't think it is jumping time. If the marks on the belt are lined up with the marks on the pulleys, not the plate behind it, and are lined up with the crank pulley I say tension the belt and do the 2 full turns with the crank. If you get any solid resistance stop and go back, but I think you have it. Half a tooth is only about 1/8th inch. I've had stuff move while fighting the belt on other jobs, but if the belt marks all line up with the pulley marks then you have it. Let me know what happens please.

Thank you. The crank will remain at top dead center. If the belt is old and stretched, or the tensioner was weak, you may have to move the crank counterclockwise just a tiny bit to catch the "crank" mark on the belt when installing.

If you have it at compression stroke top dead center number one firing and have your marks all lined up does it matter where the marks on the belt is
@funjunkiegarage Жыл бұрын
In theory, no, as long as it's all lined up properly and you get the belt on properly. The trick is making sure it's on properly. The marks are there for that purpose. If you don't get it perfect, you can be a tooth off on 1 gear and it won't run. If you've ever done one, you'll be glad for the marks on the belt. Getting all 3 marks to line up properly is very important and absolutely necessary. I personally would not try it without them. Hope this helps. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
