Before I adjust the valve I like to get the timing belt installed so I can rotate the engine over into the correct location easier. When installing the water pump make sure you use a metal gasket instead of the paper or fiber gaskets. Some belts have timing marks on the belt but if it doesn’t just make sure all timing marks are at the 12 o’clock position. After installing all the components and belt pull the tensioner pin and rotate the crankshaft 2 full turns and line up the marks again. All marks should return to the 12 o’clock position.
In the next Video we will adjust the valves and install the valve covers.
Not that I think but you are my best teacher so far coz you know how to explain things…. thank you my teacher for the good work you are doing.please I would love to be your spanner boy so that I learn more….. thanks
At last found a professional clip with torque values supplied during the steps.
Thanks for this video, concise and understandable. Well done.
Thank you so much for sharing your expertise and good video quality. I am going to attempt it myself this time.
Do the cam seals go in all the way until they bottom out or is there a set depth they must be installed at?
@ThePracticalMechanic Are the 2 Cam Gears interchangeable? More specifically, could I use a Left (Driver Side) Cam Gear for the Right (Passenger Side) Cam Gear? I've seen a mechanic do it in another video but without mentioning anything. I only have the special wrench for the left cam gear, but I have an extra left cam gear that I would like to put on the right to make it easier to torque.
One more remark gents-had 2nights playng with same engine timing,exactly as described etc.
Result-engine bad smell cranks ok but no power 800rpm max.and days suddenly.
Checked timing several times-no errors by obd .
What i found today is crankshaft gear where shaft magnetic sensor reads was missing one teeth-replaced gear and works as a dream
water pump will last for 400 thousand miles on a Subaru
unfortunately I don't understand your language, but here in Brazil I'm suffering from a lack of professionals to work with my subarus, even without understanding what you said I'm going to risk changing. thank you
excellent video brotherman
Fantastic explanation. A real life saver! Thank you very much for your help!
Ah man thank you just you showing me your cam gear pulled out and going back in that's my new reference for timing gonna have to measure..
If I have already removed the timimg belt and pullies how to I rotate the camshafts into position? I moved the crank alignment after the belt was off…
