davedave Forums Junkie Location: Sydney Registered: October 2003	3SGTE timing issue - now actuator issues Mon, 21 November 2005 02:28 Hi peeps, Got an issue with the timing of my 3SGTE When freshening up my engine, I reinstalled every seal and belt I could get my hands on, this included the timing belt. I think I may have done something wrong though as even when the dizzy is adjusted to its full extent, I can only get to about 20 degrees off (it needs to be 10). I've taken the timing cover off and when the crank is at TDC, the cams also seem to be at TDC. They're a teeny tiny bit to the right, but if I moved the belt forward one tooth, it'd be much further off the mark. The only things I think could be wrong, but most get negated fairly quickly are. 1) because the crank does two rotations to every one of the cams, maybe I've lined the crank up at BDC. - You wouldn't think it would run at all though. 2) The tensioner's either not pushing the belt out enough or pushing it too far. IE making the belt path longer or shorter between the crank and cams. 3) There's something wrong with the Dizzy. Could I be off a tooth there, or is there only one way it goes on like the cam gears and crank pulley? The car idles and runs fine. I can't boost though, as soon as I do, the engine is cut briefly and the check engine light comes on for a few seconds. Is that what happens when the engine 'knocks'? Thanks in advance for any help!
