Title: Cambelt change, am I doing this right?
Post by: RolandL on 15 February 2011, 12:24:32
Halfway through cambelt change, need a little advice.
 My belt has two sets of marks for crank White and yellow. Two sets for banks one and two again white and yellow. And one set for three and four, white only.

When I line up white crank mark, banks 1+ 2 white marks line up. Banks 3+4 white marks way off.

If I line up yellow crank marking, banks 1+2 yellow marks line up and so do banks 3+4 white marks

I'm guessing second one is right, just wanted to be sure before I go any further

Off to put kettle on while I await all your responses  :y

Hi Roland,

Sounds like a later engine, in which case what you describe sounds correct.

Kind regards,
James

Yep, and to confirm the correct alignment, I'd rotate the crankshaft through two complete revolutions and then re-check the markings.
