Locking crankshaft/flywheel in 1.6 petrol TU5JP4 engines when changing timing belt (Peugeot/Citroen)

- How to pin/lock the crankshaft/flywheel when changing the timing belt in NFU or TU5JP4 1.6L 16v 110bhp petrol Peugeot/Citroen engines.
The car is a Peugeot 307 (2007; 1.6L 16v petrol; 110bhp; ~47,000miles; TU5JP4 engine). This should be the same in Citroen with the same 1.6 petrol engines. Make sure that you have put the pins in the camshaft sprockets and the line at the bottom of the crankshaft is pointing down. Then you can wiggle the crankshaft tool to lock the crankshaft/flywheel. If it does not go smooth enough you can rotate the crankshaft (with camshaft sprockets locked) a tiny amount clockwise or counterclockwise, only a small amount so the tool can go in the flywheel. Do not turn too much counterclockwise.
The genuine tool is 6mm, but I had to file it to ~5.7-5.8mm. The hole gets rusty and the 6mm rod does not fit quite well. The length of the rod that goes inside of the hole is ~2.8cm.
The camshaft sprockets are 8mm, so one can use a drill for that purpose. Also, there is a U-shaped clamp to hold the new timing belt on the crankshaft, but it does not really work. I use cardboard that I stuck underneath the crankshaft to hold the belt in pace, much easier.
Here are a few very good videos of how to change the timing belt:

The next two are in Russian, but they are really good to watch of how to replace it, even if one does not understand the language:
• Tu5jp4(NFU) ремнь ГРМ...
• ЗАМЕНА РЕМНЯ ГРМ И ПОМ...

Very helpful video, nice steady camera, good lighting and clear explanation and display of tools. Nice that you zoomed in too. Thank you for making this video and uploading. 👍😎
Appreciate the comment and thank you for noticing these details 🙂
Great great video and explanation and the tool I needed ! Many thanks man !
Very helpful tutorial. I just bought a used 206 and this is one of the first things i will do
Good luck with changing the belt. It is pretty easy actually and I should have filmed it as well...and I did not as there were several others, although not in English. Check the links in the video.
@@moremolecules thank you. Yeah it looks pretty straightforward indeed.
Oh its ok. I am gonna get a small lock tool so i dont mess up the timing
Reason i bought this car is because i am gonna sell the new one i bought 2 years ago. I moved withing a mile to work and its stupid to pay off a car a barely use
Odlično. Majstorski objašnjeno. Svaka čast.
Thanks! Great video, very helpful!
Thanks a lot. It was a very descriptive explanation.
Thank you. Very good video
Good points, that was exactly what i was looking for. Thanks
Many thanks my friend! Just what I needed
Brilliant..Really helpful..Just what I needed
Perfect, thank you!
Hi, your videos stopped popping up in my recommended. I see the views are low but don't stop, I love them man. Turned on the bell
Thank you very much indeed for the support Rek. Some of my videos are for a 1.6 petrol version engine, it maybe that youtube decided that you might not be interested.
Thanks! Great video👌
very very good thank you, helped me loads
Thankyou bro.🥰♥️
Good video Thank you.
Good video, txs a lot
thx thats great
Thanks so much. What is the length of the 6mm locking section going into the hole, if I may ask.
I should have put this in the dimensions. Thanks for the question, it goes inside ~2.8cm.
@@moremolecules Much appreciated. All of the best.
Nice
Thanks MM for that info straight to the point , can you pin the 1.6 hdi flywheel/crank from same area, I have both models the petrol and diesel
Yeah, good question. I have not done it on my 1.6HDi, so difficult to give you a proper answer. I think the flywheel locking in the 1.6HDi is only to release the pulley bolt and not used for timing. The 1.6 petrol is used for timing.
👍👍👍
Excellent
Worse is that the hole is missing on my 2003 Partner. There is to a be a marking on the crankshaft sprocket instead.
Szia nagyon jó video esetleg hidrótöke cserélör nincs? ugyan ez az autó tipus. Köszönöm
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise.
I bought a timing belt (Bosch brand) for my Peugeot 206 sedan 1.6 two cam shafts.
The belt has 134 teeth!
I just want to make sure if it's the right one to my car?
I intend to make the replacement my self.
It is fairly straightforward to change the belt + water pump and associated pulleys. I should have made a video, but thought not. I cannot quite remember if mine was 134 teeth. I bought this: www.autodoc.co.uk/gates/7024338
It was GATES KP15581XS belt + water pump and pulleys. The belt is Gates 5581XS with 134 teeth.
@@moremolecules
Yes, I'll definitely change the water pump + pulleys.
One more question please. 🙏
The belt I bought has no marks (I mean the three white marks) for the crank and cam shafts.
Should I buy another one with those white marks, or may I count the number of teeth between the marks then make them my self??
@@FIXnMIX.. The marks are extremely useful, but you do not need the marks, counting the teeth is also alright. If I were you I would get more reputable belt with white marks.
@@moremolecules
It's Bosch brand - made in Germany.
That's what it says on the belt, plus it has all the (numbers, arrow ➡ direction and date) written on the belt except the marks!
Thank you so much for considering my questions 🙏
@@FIXnMIX.. If it is bosch, then probably alright. Just count the number of teeth.
Merci ❤
Is this an extra safety if the pins at the start of the video comes off or something? Or absoluteyy needed? Asking because i just watched another tu5jp4 video and i didnt see they are doing anything on the other side of the engine. The video is "" watch?v=SroJdT60zqw ""
nice video. whats the diameter of the locking tool to the flywheel?
It is in the video description, but here it is: The genuine tool is 6mm, but I had to file it to ~5.7-5.8mm. The hole gets rusty and the 6mm rod does not fit quite well. The length of the rod that goes inside of the hole is ~2.8cm.
Is this a reliable petrol engine in your opinion?
In my opinion, yes. It is pretty solid engine and that is why I bought it myself. It uses a bit more fuel, as it does not really have anything, like a turbo. The engine does not have much stuff in it anyway to go wrong and it does not suffer from headgaskets as compared to the 1.4 engine.
@@moremolecules Thanks! So for C3 1.1 and 1.4 petrol engines are more economical, but less reliable than 1.6 engines.
@@HardiHolpus Yes, correct. The 1.4 (not too sure about the others) and the 1.3 (Citroen mainly) are economical, but very much prone to headgasket failure, so quite a bit of mixing oil/coolant. Not too difficult to repair, but it comes back again. For this reason there are great bargains to be had in the 1.3-1.4L petrol engines, but one needs to get hands quite a bit dirty.
great video will this work on the c2 vts ?
Maybe, not too sure, probably it will actually if it is the TU5JP4 engine.
The key in the camshaft sprocket broke on mine. Im going to replace it but dunno how to put the correct timing. Following your video will do it for me?
Not too sure if my video will do it. Have a look at the videos listed in the description. One is in Russian, but pretty good. The other one is German, but with English subtitles. As long as the 3 match, there shoud not be a problem, i.e. the two camshaft and the crankshaft one.
Anyone know if flywheel is the same in all Tu5jp4 engines? I changed the engine in my 206 1st gen for one that was in a 307.
After that change the engine lost power and sometimes at low speed there is no torque or became confused.
I read in a forum someone changed the engine in a Xsara to one from a 307 as well and only after changed flywheel the problems were solved.
I really do not know the asnwer to that question, but I suspect that they are the same.
Hey, do you know how to fix the timing if the car has jumped timing?
If you line up all the holes plus the bottom one, it should be timed. Do not go counterclockwise only clockwise.
Hello friend, I have Peugeot 307 form 2004 ( 1.6 hdi, 109hp ) does he have timming belt or chain?
It is a timing belt.
@@moremolecules okay thanks. I thought the same, but the guy From the shop told me it has chain so I was confused. I checked engine it has plastic cover on that place wheres the Belt... So i think its Belt.
@@orenestorovic1921 Definitely not a chain. The 1.6 petrol and the 1.6HDi are not chains, but timing belts, regardless of the bhp. Check your car booklet and you will see timing belt replacement interval. You would not have it if it had a chain.
@@moremolecules thanks a lot friend.
@@orenestorovic1921 No worries, glad I can help
В сравнение с моя Ford tdci, това е приказка.
I completely agree, the 1.6 petrol is very easy to work on and replace all the belts.
@@moremolecules Днес си купих също Peugeot 1,6 16 V petrol.
Вашите клипове са много полезни за хора като мен, които обичат да си правят нещата сами.
Благодаря.
@@antonchokov Много благодаря за коментара. Наистина се надявам да намерите вашия 1.6 бензин наистина лесен за работа.
