Im rebuilding an interference motor at the moment. I wasn't paying attention when i took the timing belt off.. And i didn't time the crank. How can i reset the timing without messing up the valves if i haven't already? I know you have to take the valve covers off and undue the cams at the mains. But nothing further then that…

Fred Martinez says:

Not sure how old is this video. I have a saturn sl2 i have rattle noise. Like something lose whn i drive it gose away

Hey Josh, can this be done in the car? (changing the timing chain)I may have to do this. I bought my SC2 in 2014 with 39K miles for $700.00, this is the only major thing I had to do. Great little car. Thanks!!
