when you take the variable cam off is there any special way to put back on
If you buy the timing belt kit and you have 2 pulleys only you will have
to go to ford Orileys autozone both ordered kit that suppose to fit 1999
2002 they don’t fit the 2 pulley one the pulleys are different sizes
loosen the bolts while the belt is still attached.
This is one of the easiest engines to replace the timing belt on once you
have the special tools and perform the procedure properly. The special
tools are VERY inexpensive. You are just asking for trouble coming up with
hacker methods to get it done.
ok creo que ese es el problema que tengo pues pongo la correa de tiempo y
el arbol de levas que trae la valbula ser mueve diferente este video me
ayuda vastante pues usted da giros sobre la valvula
The countour gl doesn’t have the cam,well what ever that thing is on the
right cam sprocket,just tdc.Remove valve cover,look down at crank pully for
the tdc mark.This is a non interferance head so don’t worry about the
valves being hit by piston. Tdc the # 1 piston useing a wire close hanger
or something simular until piston is up and tdc @ crank pully
mark,Counterclockwise cam sprockets off # 1 lifters.Replace idlers AND
WATER PUMP on GL Models’internal water pump’. ‘Added Suggestion’ Nice vid.
Can you tell me haw to remove VCT and Solenoide from cam?
fixed it it was wrong belt somehow although thats the one my auto store
gave me
OK
can you make a video on where the computer is in the car…my car wont
start and when i took it to get checked out they told me it was because of
the computer wasnt communicating with the engine properly could you please
help?????
can you make a video on how to replace the water pullleys at least to make
space on the side so it will be easier for me to replace the water pulley
since its shaking bad
possible tensioner, and or lack of oil to tensioner
thanks i needed to know how set the tension on the timing belt
my ford countour’s belt tensioner is breaking every three months what is
the problem here? i use the stock belt (and replaced it with an identical)
muy bueno gracias
You probably have it too tight.
