    Timing Belt Tool Set

    It's exactly like mine: -The tool with red handle is for the tensioner pully( be careful as on mine the pins snapped, I fitted some screws in the holes) - the tool like a nidle is for the shaft balancer( only need it if the engine has been dismantled) - from bottom left first one is for the exauhst cam shaft( the one towards the car, the hole is near the thermostat) - second one left is for the intake camshaft( the hole is behind the alternator) Third one left is for the crankshaft( the hole is behind the starter thus needing to be removed) The other ones are for other engines like jeep Cherokee or different models of grand voyagers. If I may suggest: I shared an YouTube link with a Russian guy doing a cam belt replacement which is very useful (is somewhere in my posts) After making sure everything is locked, I undone the camshafts bolts, doing that it makes it very easy to put the new one up, but when tightened them back on pit something between the pullies to block them for twisting( for the exauhst cam above and for the intake cam below, I used a small ratchet extension) also remember to get the wipers cover and motor casing out to have more room to put the exauhst blocking pin. And while you're there do the water pump too. Any more questions, please ask if I don't know I'm sure someone in here will give you an answer. Hope it helps.

  2. Hi all Been having similar issues with starting first thing then once warm an absolute pig to start. Tried 5 maybe 6 goes to get the engine to start until today and as many previous posts changed the fuel filter & hey presto starts first time every time old filter was clogged with what I can only describe as gunge also had the engine decarbonized & not sure yet if it makes a difference only time will tell.
