Your a life savor bro.. ive done work to my truck but never the timing belt ane the way u broke it down, im confident i can replace it my self. Times r hard right now... Thanks 👊
Awesome video! Very informative and easy to follow. Interestingly the first belt you got was a square-tooth belt for older VG engines. The VG33 in the Xterra has updated round-tooth cam gears that wear on the belt better. That Amazon kit should definitely not be advertised for Xterras and frontiers
enjoyEd this video and watched your vid. on distributor replacement and was wondering wHEre you purchased replacement distributor and how long it lasted [ is it still running well ?]
Haven’t had any issues and it’s probably been about a year and a couple months on the distributor And it has about 6500 miles on it so far I did get it off of Amazon I thought I put the description in the video as far as which one I got off of Amazon.
@@aligningpurposes268 no if it’s loose it shouldn’t be a problem not sure double check you have the spring on the tensioner correctly so you know you are loosening it the right way compare to the video one more time
I got it. Also I see that when you tightened the tensioner you went counter clockwise with the Allen key. Isn’t it clockwise all the way until it can’t anymore and then tighten the nut? On FSM I believe it says turn it all the way outwards and then tighten.

I got a question to ask you how do you set the crank if there's no markings

No problem so far it’s been running good
@@diydan7019 did i read that you purchased the distributor from amazon
Even with the tensioner all the way lose I’m having trouble putting the belt on. Any tips?

Nope, not interference engine! Broke my timing belt once, replace it and everything was ok with my truck...
@@AdrianMendoza01 that doesnt mean its not interference engine just means you got lucky it didn't do any severe damage when it broke👍
@@diydan7019 Ok, to each their own ideas and knowledge. No problem.
