| Subject: | how to put a timing belt in time |
| Question: |
my timing belt slipped on my 1993 eclipse 1.8 sohc wondering when i put the new one on how would i know if i have everything inline |
| Answer: | Daniel, There is no great way to make sure everything is still lined up. If the belt simply slipped a bit and did not fully break, then there's a good chance the engine is still somewhat in line. Once you get the new belt on, there will definitely be adjustments needed, but it shouldn't cause any problems. If the engine isn't in line at all when you install the new belt, it won't start at all. Good luck! |
