Hey folks. Okay, I'm nearly ready to start this beast. I just want to make sure I've got everything covered before I fire up this bizarre piece of work.
After the cam-assembly has been removed from the engine and after having done a clutch replacement, what points do I need to worry about for timing? Obviously, the timing belt came off the cam-gear. But the balance-shaft belt wasn't touched. So do I only need to line up the flywheel OT mark and the nicks on the cam-gear/cam housing? Is there anything else that needs lining up? (Yes, yes, I know about the retensioning of the belt so, please, no diatribes on that one.)
Also, clarks-garage mentions this procedure with putting the marks all dead-nuts. But I've read here that some of you feel they should be timed a couple degrees off. Any input??? I'd like to have her running in a few days so any info would be great.
