  • The timing belt was about due on the Alfa Romeo 156 and a water leak I suspected to be from the water pump forced the issue. Here I change the timing belt, balancer belt and water pump on this 1998 Alfa Romeo 156 2.0 TS.

    I got all of the replacement parts from the Alfa Workshop in the UK. Great pricing and service.

    My first time buying a car off Facebook Marketplace, and boy what a treat it turned out to be!
    I'm planning on using this Alfa Romeo as a track day car, so it needs to be up to scratch maintenance-wise.
    I buy my service parts from www.diycarserviceparts.co.uk/
    The oil comes from Penrite

      @@Zion-jw3gm Wow. Got mine in 2016 with a blown head gasket. Heavy head skim and head porting , inlet porting, CDA intake, Cam timing and straight thru 60mm to a DTM 3" DTM backbox. - 35mm springs with shorten 30% uprated shocks all round. EBC red brakes and Discs. Rebuilt Selespeed system and changed gearbox oil, new Cv's.
      Gonna get Alfonso remapped in the Spring. Love it and never will sell it.

      Noooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm sooooooo jelouse pleaaase tell me how it rolls. I'm researching which engine builder to use. I had mine ported and gas flowed when I was using a rotrex supercharger. But I think this car works best NA.
      So I'm taking your route already dropped suspension with Brembos all round and chassis improvements.
      I have a taller 5th gear but without the SC can't take full advantage of it but still OK.
      Sourced some cams not wild from Alfaholics better than the Italian brand.
      I want to know if you managed to reprogram the gear box ecu shift points to match or did you just leave it.

    Awesome video, mate! Going to have to do this job on my 1.6 TS 120hp 147 soon. What kind of bolts did you use to secure the locking tools on the camshafts? Thanks a lot for the video and your answer!

  • @blackeeeschwarz4318
    @blackeeeschwarz4318 2 роки тому +2

    It's not quite clear how to adjust the cambelt tensioner correctly here. If the special T-Grip excenter tool is used, turn it to the maximum-tension position. Then turn the crankshaft 2 times to give the new belt a settling.
    After that reduce the belt tension again since the arrowhead of the tensioner displays to the middle of the corresponding hole.
    Otherwise the cambelt tension is too high attended with the danger to tear.
    Regards

  • @dasdasdsdasdasdasd363
    @dasdasdsdasdasdasd363 2 роки тому +1

    I'm pretty sure you can't adjust the exhaust cam pulley as it has a locating lug anyway. Only the intake pulley can move on the variator.

    Why you guys always think so complicated 😂
    Untight the belts, put the new one on - end of story.
    Just put marks on the position of each moving part….
    Check on the bearings… water pump…. Every 5 years? - No!

      Hello. Owner of a 2004 2.0 JTS 156. In my country you have 2 choices: go to the dealership or an Alfa Romeo expert (both €700+) or go to a normal garage and have them mess something up. You can’t even trust normal mechanics here to not mess up a spark plug change, let alone Alfa distribution.
      I have learned to do pretty much everything on the car myself and want to do the timing belt on my 2.0 jts by myself. I’ll study the necessary efforts for 3 days and work on the car the whole day if I have to. But can anyone link me to a good 2.0 JTS timing belt instruction? I understand the basics but I need a nice overview thats’s beginner friendly. This video is great but I suppose 2.0 JTS is different

      There might be an extra belt on the 2.0…
