What size of wrenches are you using on this? And I can't see clearly on where you use the long neck extention.
Appreciate the video. I'm on the fence regarding doing this job for a friend who is $1 from being Homeless. Has a 2007 KIA Sprectra with 40K miles. Extremely neglected car. I looked at the timing belt and it's got lots of fine cracks. My friend seems to appreciate nothing and nobody. So it's a tough decision for me to do the timing belt for him or just let him drive it and hope it doesn't break. God forbid if I did something wrong, he'd blow a gasket.
I've done this job to my kia once before you made it very specific thank you for the refreshing the noodle.
Is my problem
The tensor with the indicator dial it will stay lined up after the two tooth forward after two full Revolutions around but after I run the car while it moves is this OK
Torque spec for this bracket? 13:05
Thanks for the help
So my belt us completely broken. If I line up cam and balancer on said marks then install a new belt will it work?
What is that pin tool you are using to hold the tensioner? Also how did you get those 2 seals out that you replaced and were they a pain?
I'm just getting ready to change my timing belt and this was super informative, thank you so much for this video!
What’s the whole point of the pointer because when I move the pulley around it the pointer moves way off ???
Good Mechanic.
Thanks for the video. Helped me a lot today.
Hello, I have KIA Spectra 2007 EX. I have a noise coming like grrrr when when I drive the car and it slows down and disappears when the car is parking but the engine still running. The water pump polly has some waving movement when the engine is running. Also, there is squentisng noise from the belts on starting the engine that disappears after few seconds. I also have a mild noise when I start steering the steering wheel to sides. One mechanic is advising me to change the water pump polly only with the belts ( l have the AC belt is cracked). Another mechanic is advising me to change the water pump itself in addition to the waving polly of the water pump and the belts of course.. The first mechanic is asking for $300 while the second is asking for $750 and aiming at changing the timing belt “by the way” as the water pump removal needs the removal of the timing belt first. The prices for both if them are for the parts and the labor. What do you think is enough to do? I need your kind opinion please. If I were close to you I would prefer bringing the cat to you but I am in Albuquerque, NM. Thank you again.
Thanks for the help. I got it done start to finish 🙂
How much you charged for this job
I could hear Demon Hunter in the background
Good mechanic, poor videographer. Important contribution rendered mediocre by incompetent video work……sad.
Superman works on cars?!
I just wanted to say thank you for making this video. I recently tackled this job on a 2009 Kia Spectra. The part that really helped me out the most was the part where you were adjusting the top cam by loosening that bolt. I actually had to do this on my vehicle because the lower harmonic balancer was lined up on the TDC mark, but it was off by a few degrees on top.
After wrestling and wrangling with it for the better part of a day and into the evening making that adjustment made the car fire right up. The instructions were clear I loved how you did step by step, and it just worked out great. Thank you! You probably saved me about $800 to $1,000 at a local shop.
? the belt broke sounds like rock , do I need a Eng , I found a donor Motor for 500 but can I get away with fixing Replacing the heads if the Pistons are good
