| Question: | how to change timeing
belt or tighten very loose |
| Answer: | Jim, The timing belt on your engine needs to be done very precisely. There's a lot more than a few words of a suggestion on how to tighten your belt. If your belt is too loose and it slips, you will ruin your engine. If you make the belt too tight, it will eventually snap and your engine will be ruined. I would suggest buying a service manual for your car. Haynes makes
a very affordable manual and it will give good instruction on timing
belt isssues. You can find the manual at most auto parts stores. Good luck! |
