That's one sure way to make sure it doesn't come loose and flog out the keyway

Hey guys does anyone know a way to set the time with the harmonic balancer still on ? |

Use the timing marks on the flywheel. Through the timing inspection port on passenger side of bell housing. |

I can't seem to find it. I'm probably looking straight at it but I can find it. |

Are you talking about lining the marks up or setting the timing with a timing light? |

Timing marks for the head and pistons, if that makes sence |

Does anyone know if for example piston 1 and 4 at top dead lines up the timing marks ? |

yes, TDC between the bottom pulley and the mark that says TDC on the plastic cover is 1 and 4 |

I dont have a timing belt cover anymore. . . |

| Post subject: | Re: sierra engine timing |
So if I turn the motor to tdc for pistons one and four then line up the timing marks of the head and put it together it will be timed ? |

you need to explain what you are doing I think if you are fitting a belt just pull the balancer off, 5 bolts it only takes 30 seconds |

I'm putting the head back on the block and I can't line up the the timing marks on the block because the guy who owned it before me welded the harmonic balancer on. |

welded it to the crank pulley? so you undo the 5 little bolts the pulley doesnt come off? I would undo the big bolt the middle and just replace the lot then, get rid of the dodgy stuff |

Put number 1 piston all the way up and that's top dead centre |

But If you drop the dizzy in and line the rotor button up to number 1 plug on the dizzy cap, it will fire . Once its running u loosen the bolt that holds the dizzy in and set the timeing |

So one and four at tdc and the gear on the end of the head lined up with its mark and the motor won't eat it self l? |

| Post subject: | Re: sierra engine timing |
It won't anyway, it's a non-interference motor. It'll be hard to get it on the right tooth on the crank if you can't see the marks |

Yeah. Im still trying to figure out how I bent both valves :/ |

When mine was tdc I punched a mark as a reference, but u could mark tdc on the block and and the pulley/harmonic balencer, Mine is similar also |

Does anyone know the location at which the pistons are at when the timing mark behide the harmonic balancer is lined up with the one on the block ? R |

Should be 1&4 up ,check it mate just in case |

This bloke is talking about getting the bottom pulley lined up to put a belt on, 1 tooth either way the thing wont run properly if at all Bashing around trying to make the piston sit at TDC wont work, its not anywhere near accurate enough, there is some 20 degree of swing in the crank with the piston at tdc, what you are telling him to do is just going to end badly Now fix the crank pulley, pull it all off and replace it, then you can line the mark on the crank pulley up with the block and be done with it, you can see where the key is with the big bolt removed and you might be able to sight it up, but 1 tooth wrong either way is just going to be a stuff around |

R If your front pulley has a timing mark on it (and please stop calling it a harmonic balancer!), then this for the IGNTIION timing, not the CAM timing. It will line up with the mark at 8deg Before TDC. |
