This guy is amazing everything is the same on f22a1 and I have been completely unable to find a full tutorial on how to time it I bought it out of time and have been stuck for sooooo long trying to build the confidence to attack it. All the other videos leave a little to the imagination. But you going into such specific detail made it possible. THANK YOU!!!
Wow. Thanks! Hope you get it right. I have another set of videos showing that procedure on an engine stand that is a lot easier to see. Let us know how it turns out.
Outstanding! I've watched several video's on the Honda Timing Belt but l must say your's scores 10/10 on camera work,lighting, details and commentary,very professional job! l now have the confidence to tackle this job! Thankyou!
So I used both diy vid and got the belts on and all cranked it and it would hit but not “start” or stay on went back to check that vid to see if I missed anything and yours came up, what you covered with the engine balancer was not covered on the other vid so I took it apart and followed your directions. Got her all back together and she cranked on within the first revolution. I can’t express my gratitude enough for you taking the time to put this instruction out there. Appreciate you.
@@ktecgarage I'm right in the middle of this and someone said to put something in the back until it's in as far as it goes. Then take off the balancer and line up the marks. The bolt it back on. I don't understand how that would work. That's not right is it? I can't get them all to line up at the same time
Watch that video. If you put a screwdriver in that port, it will lock up that rear shaft at the top dead center position. This video makes it much easier to see what you are trying to do.
Every one else I've seen puts the front mark to the bottom right and then the back two notches line up perfectly with the two notches in the back. Very irritating not having a manual 😢
I've been a transmission R&R tech for over 20 years and have done Honda timing belts, never did a 2.3, so imagine when I seen balance shafts ..great video, great camera shots. You have a new subscriber!
Thanks for an excellent video. I wasn't sure about the rear balance shaft. This video answered my question. Thanks for spending the extra time to explain the 3:1 ratio, etc. I've always owned American made vehicles, and none of them used balance shafts; so this was my first experience with them. Thanks again for such a thorough video.
I'm glad I found this video it was very informative. I have one question you just run the crank bolt in with the impact what would be the torque on that like I said excellent video
Thanks for posting! I'm doing a timing belt on a F23A5. Question: how do you put the crank bolt on and off without moving the crankshaft off TDC? The special Honda tool doesn't work at this stage of the process. Thanks.
Moving the crank won't damage anything so long as the timing belt is still on and in proper time. Once you get it loose, you can run it back in "loosely" to move the crank later. Hope I understood your question correctly. Good luck with your repair and thank you for the comment.
Thanks, it was 9 years since I did this to my 1995 and I forgot much of what I learned last time. Should I wait for my new motor mount to set my cam wheel? The engine is setting lower. I guess I could jack it up to where it's supposed to be. Do you turn the crank clockwise or counter clockwise on a 2.2 liter 1995 non vtech engine (1995 accord LX)? Someone told me rotates clockwise but everything I can find says it's like yours counter clockwise.
Hi, i have no experience in mechanics and actually trying to learn a bit. Wil this process be the same for most car engines, or does every car brand design their engine assembly differently? (Since this is a honda head gasket tutorial)
Your video is great really helped me out, very easy to understand and follow! When I started the car, it started right up ran very smooth and then a minute later it turned off and now I can’t get it started again. What could be wrong? 26:35
@@ktecgarage I think it’s the oil pump? That was the only part I had doubts in what I did. The counter weight I think I didn’t set it right… going back in now I let you know how it goes. Thank you!
That would have been a magic trick! I did not remove the belt, just the head. You would need to remove the motor mount bolts and use a floor jack to lift that side of the engine to get the belt on. Sorry if the video mislead you. Good luck!
@@ktecgarage I would like to ask a further question about the timing belt replacement. Is is necessary to remove the valve cover.? Could you not remove the timing belt cover and still line up the cam sprocket to TDC by shining a light behind the cam sprocket and lining up with the mark on top the cam rod and lining the side marks on the wheel with the top of cam head??? Please advise , thank you.
Thanks for that inf I'm been looking all u videos u save me a lot of issues with my car and also that spring that u put last on my car I see it's missing I think that's WY my car always have a noise that's sounds like it power steering bad ( my car has that front cover loose u think I can swap that spring without removing anything on the timing belt because the car runs fine I just don't want too pay for that again if I can do it by myself?

Can i rotate the Crank for valve adjustment without the balance shaft belt hooked up? Or do i have to have the balance belt on first? Just trying to have the least resistance when rotating 1-3-4-2
Could be. On 1st starts, I pull the fuel pump fuse and spark plugs and spin the engine with the starter for 30 to 45 seconds to circulate oil. Could also need to adjust the valve lash. Ps belt is adjusted by loosening the pump slightly, pry it up with crowbar or long screwdriver and then re-tighten the bolts with the tension still applied.

alright so it seems like I'm overthinking the tension. Hand tight last bigger tensioner bolt, and its buddy bolt, then remove the retainer bolt on the other tensioner. Rotate like 3 teeth to find the proper tension, with everything finger tight, then tighten down once the slack is gone and then boom. all set?
At 5:35 of your video, I believe you need to adjust that via the balancer before taking the belt out. On the plastic cover that you took out, there an indicator/gauge built into the plastic cover that will help you to align this particular part of the timing. See ua-cam.com/video/Zh3K4yiIcAY/v-deo.html.

i have the f22b2 it also has balance shafts
I just now finished my second Honda timing belt ever. I needed this detailed info before I ever started! Thanks for posting.
Thank you! I'm glad the info was helpful.
Just a tip, the cam gear has the lines on the rear of it too, and they should line up with the top deck of the head.
Thank you, but we already knew this.
per the current video.

The head gaskets are all pretty much the same. The timing components would be the biggest difference.

Hi, please explain how you got the timing belt on the cam sprocket at the top and over the crank gear at the bottom without removing the motor mount?

My crank pulley is about 45 degrees off. Am i good to turn it the whole way, all the videos i watch you guys only turn it about .2 degrees
You can turn it, but if you feel it start to bind at all, stop. Go slow.
I would double check your rear balance wheel with your honda diagram mine has 2 witness Mark's in completely different location

Once the timing parts are tightened down, I don't believe the springs serve any purpose. If it's running fine, don't bother.

The Upper Timing cover has a lip on it, so you pretty much have to at least lift it up so you can get that cover off.
Can i rotate the Crank for valve adjustment without the balance shaft belt hooked up? Or do i have to have the balance belt on first? Just trying to have the least resistance when rotating 1-3-4-2
If u have the crank and cam pulley timed, u can spin it without the balance shaft belt.

does the car have to be at TDC doing the blanace shaft
No. The shafts are not connected to the cam or crank.

It is very possible that the valves could get bent if the belt breaks, but you could get lucky and not bend them.
This is the same thing for a 92 Honda Accord right?????
Setting timing worked great followed step by step thank you!!!

This is a 2000. The 98-02 are all about the same. Pretty much all of the F series engines are timed like this.

Why not just stick something in that hole to hold that pulls before removing belt so you know it’s not going to more on you while working?

How to keep camshaft from moving
Once I had mine at TDC I didn't have a problem with the cam moving.
@@ktecgarage everytime I rotate crankshaft clockwise one camshaft line up but the other camshaft don't
@@ktecgarage can I buy a camshaft holding tool or something
If you have dual cams, I would get one of those cam locks. They sell them everywhere online. Also, make sure the spark plugs are removed.
Don't have dual cam I'm working on a vtec engine
