if the old belt is still intact and not jumped time you can create your own timing marks with a marker or something on the timing gears and corresponding marks on the old belt. once it's off count the teeth between the marks and transfer the marks to new belt. so easy and quick, and you really can't mess up the timing.
Probably the best video explanation I've ever seen. I'm not even doing a belt swap but still watched the whole thing.
Thanks for posting this vid. Top 10 DIY car repair vid on CZcams.
Did my 94 ford probe gt a couple years ago. This brought back some memories. Everything worked out but it easily took me 8 hours not having done the TB, water pump, and pulleys before. Learned A LOT about that engine though. Well worth the time.
Well done on you. Everything you need to know and exhaustive tips + tricks. The camera work and editing is beyond good. Took me years to learn all this on my own, and you can learn it all in 15 minutes from Brian.
Well dang it. I waited two years hoping you'd do this video so without this most excellent information I had to relent and pay somebody to do it. Turns out the rear main seal was leaking anyway. More than I wanted to tackle. Excellent work as always my friend.
Awesome! Very good quality and explanation with good camera control, arrows, light, etc makes this one of the better videos I've seen. Thank you!
Watched your videos for a long time now Brian. You've always have had a noticeable positive outlook on life in general. I appreciate that man. Sometimes it's all I need to keep my head up too when the daily grind is gettin too me. Keep on rollin and thanks for the videos
Years later you are a life saver.. Straight forward and now I'm confident I have all the equipment needed.. Ill let you know how it goes! Water pump, timing belt, grenade tensioner , idler pulleys x2 and office depot clips & harmonic 50mm puller tool. ✔
So how did it go ??
Did you tackle it? Does it drive. Please tell
I've said this before but your videos are really well organized. The arrows and annotations are a welcomed addition.
Best video Ive ever watch about timing in general. Keep them coming 👍
the only car channel which the right names of the parts
I really appreciate you posting this. Been watching Timing Belt videos (doing my '07 Odyssey this weekend.) Lot's of good stuff here!
Brian Thank you for the step by step video....It helped me save big bucks.....Thank you again
Kudos. You always teaching us with your great videos. I'm looking forward to change my timing belt, rebuilt the transmission, and change the rear main seal in my Accord 99 V6 3.0.
I just wanted to show you and other people here this video in spanish about how to synchronize not the only the camshaft and the crankshaft, but also the other two gears (front and rear where the belt gets around too. Very valuable info. The rear gear has two marks (on the gear and the shaft). And on the front gear you need to get that bolt out to insert a long screwdriver all the way in. That gear has one mark but he says it won't matter if it doesn't have the mark if the screwdriver goes all the way in, I guess just to be safe get that mark and all the screwdriver in. On minute 6:45 he also explains to do not rotate the camshaft without the timing belt, and that if you do, then you should rotate the crankshaft mark on a horizontal plane(way). And depending in what unsynchronized position the crankshaft gear mark, then you move the mark to the closest horizontal plane (90 degrees). And then move your camshaft to put in the right up/mark position so you won't damage the valves. czcams.com/video/b_F-YLZk2tI/video.html
excellent video, i m a toyota master tech and was doing the belt on my accord v6 so i watched a few videos showing how to do it. Your video was the best, it was to the point without a bunch of stupid shit and time wasting content. Excellent content excellent editing too! A++
You give great extra tips on how to make the job easier. Thanks
Insane attention to detail man thanks for the very informative video
You're awesome Brian always look forward to your vids bro
I can relate to what it takes & how long, just sometimes I wonder what were these guys thinking when making parts & engines the way they do. I also like that you explained and got to the point of where what why and how. Info on this is always helpful in reference to other jobs as well. Thanks and keep up the great work
great video,thanks for posting! great extra tips and reminders that a lot of pros leave out.
Nice editing. Thumbs up for that.
I've used the starter method on several cars to get that bolt off. Works like a charm.
some call it "starter bump method" and it does work great!
Well done. It's nice to see a video from someone that is knowledgeable AND articulate. Lots of great little tips in there like using the wife's Macy's credit card to hold the belt on the crank. I didn't read the comments but you turn the engine over twice to verify timing alignment, right?
Another Awesome Video.. Thanks Brian..
At 200,100 km my 06 Accord is due for a belt. My independent shop wants $1,200 + to do the belt and water pump. With recent piston slap on #5 I think the car is done. Excellent video, you cut right to the point. If it wasn't for the piston I would do the job myself 👍
good explanation. hundreds of videos and some people don't really explain it well.
Very nice and well done video. I thought the tip for starting with timing marks very slightly counterclockwise was very useful as the slack can be taken out at the final check. Heating the crank bolt washer a very good tip also. Thank You
Thanks for sharing. Very easy job with experience and tools..
Phenomenal Video....well said and choreographed!!!!!
Holy smokes! Thank you!
I love Honda tBelts! I used to use a torch for the balancer bolt but, now I use a tool I made. I took a short 19mm and slid it into a deep socket that is about the same size as the washer and welded them together. That way the washer and the bolt both get hammered, by the impact. It is amazing and has never failed me. It's a 1/2 socket of course.
Just purchase Lisle 77080 19 mm Harmonic Balancer Socket for Honda on Amazon for $25. Takes that bolt off in seconds. Watch CZcams videos with that socket in action.
@@troyfall6573 I agree. Pretty much most people recommend an impact rated at >500lb/ft torque for the crank bolt. That plus the special socket should get them off. I haven't done mine yet but I have a 1400 lb/ft electric impact that takes axle nuts and rusted exhaust bolts off like they weren't even there so I'm not too worried.
I think ETCG would be proud!
i get a kick out of all your lil pointing arrows lol, good video brian i like the way u get to the point
great video. we want more brian moar
I love how you use the clips to hold the belt to the pulleys. They work great for potato chip bags and inside cereal boxes.
Fine job Brian, thanks!
Thanks for your vedio. Very helpful! God bless you
I used a 4X Torque Multiplier and have never had any problems removing crank bolts. It is a lot safer, since the torque is gradually applied to the bolt, and I never have a problem where the bolt release and your knuckles smashes into something. Other than the cost I'm surprised that people don't use it more often.
Nice video explained it well thanks 👍🏻😀
great job man congratulations
Yes! Love these videos
Top notch video. Thank you.
nice video dude i thought i could just sneak off timing belts to do my head gaskets lol i guess now its timing belt water pump time also but great videos you and that chick ! i already pulled the belt and did heads so thanks
Hey man, cool video. Love the price of the home made socket. haha
Found the crank bolt comes out easy with an impact. The rear cam pulley is tricky to center and want to rotate forward or back instead of rest lined up with marks. Do not remove crank pulley Key or if you do realign timing ring, sprocket to crank. Mark old belt teeth before removing tensioner the make same marks on new belt to make sure rear pulley does not skip, crank and front pulley will stay put when using tips in this video.
Paper towel Trick Ehhh ?!!!
THANK YOU .
SUBSCRIBED
You're welcome and THANK YOU!
Thanks bro for help we is very good information
Thank you for the video sir.
The paper clip is a good trick....bin there done that ...very good vid....SALUTE
Always have a supply of those in the box, they are just so damn handy to have. Beats the heck out of fighting with a belt trying to get it routed.
These videos cause me to appreciate my old rwd redblock volvos more and more. Got some Ohio plates headed your way...soon.
Alldatadiy says its a 2.2 hour job on a redblock.
Thanks! That makes my day- not sure why- don't care. I love it.
@@briansmobile1
Me 3 .
It made my Good afterevening .
Awsome.
Thank you for the info!
Good info thank you brother
Welcome Roman!
Good info. Thanks
Nicely done.
Thank you Brian
Good info and short video
good video. thank you very much.
Great job
i always spin the motor over with a ratchet after i set the timing belt and reset the timing marks over again before i put them all back together just for good measure like your videos keep making them we'll keep watching
I only do that if I am being a bit paranoid or milkin a job because I am bored.
you got a little action going on there in your pic 😏
Hey guys. I have the same engine. My belt broke on mines while sitting at a light. Tension pulley is the cause. The only thing is when it broke. You know by nature you try to crank it back up which makers the cam shaft spin if I'm correct. How can I get them all back in line. The top two are pointing in the 1 o'clock position and the bottom is well maybe at 5. Besides I've been trying to start it. By replacing other crap other than the real issue lol. I replaced the pump in Dec of 2016 and now the belt breaks. So I'm stumped on what to do. Thanks if you guys could give your insight.
@@UniversalCode9 did you ever get this fixed? These engines are interference engines and so it's possible you have some damage in your heads or pistons.
@@mikegilmore8998 man I got rid of it 2017 in December. I wasn't ready to take the risk. I miss that car. Acura the tl
brian, good video. i replaced timing belt but having issues. anyway you can answer a question? thanks
Hi Brian , I am replacing my timing belt and I ran in to a bitter of problem. My top two camshaft lineup perfectly and the bottom small camshaft off the mark. i rotated so many time to get bottom mark lineup but still I can get it right . Your help will be greatly appreciated very much...senevi
That's allot of arrows but they sure do help!
to whom it may concern..I did a very similar job on a KIA sportage..all went well except....on the top of the upper timing belt cover 7:28 there is a little plastic seal ..make DAMM sure this thing is tucked in because mine apparently got caught up between the cam sprocket and the belt and jumped the time about 60 degrees while I was tooling down the highway celebrating my successful timing belt/water pump job. Luckily, it didnt junk the engine..but it did wreck my trip to the botanical garden and forced me to redo the job. Just a heads up!!
Well explained
How do you know/read about firing order for the vehicles?
I often noticed it's better way to change idler pulleys and tensioner and water pump when replacing timing belts. It leads us to go more thousand miles conveniently, other way Idler Pulleys or Water Pump may deteriorate before timing belt.
I'd like to hire your blind apprentice to weld me up a special tool like yours! great thumbnail as well!
They have a weighted socket to remove tight crank pulley bolts.. always works👍
I love these Timing belts. I could do one in my sleep. Just finished my 04 TL sport
I could do one in my dreams .
Never done one .
I love timing chains. Never have to go thru this unnecessary crap. Thanks alot Honda
@@RothBeyondTheGrave unless the tensioner goes bad for the timing chain, then you will have to almost do the same thing.
@@civicpride1986 very true. Hopefully if that were the case, you'd hear the chain smacking around some so you'd have warning. And at least it's not inevitable maintenance. A belt on an interference engine is kind of a dick move but again, Honda's reliability I trust. Had an '03 tl at 217k mi on the og belt.
@@RothBeyondTheGrave I just finished doing my timing belt on my 04 acura TL car had 275k miles and probably this will be the last timing belt job I will do on this car.. unless it makes it to 375k, we will see.. I agree this honda v6 engines are almost bulletproof..
Ive been needing that electric ratchet in my life for sooo long lol
Man me too.
That milwalkee has been set aside for steaks and toylet paper.
Its been 3yrs now . Still wrenching.
I'm going to use the starter to crack the crank bolt free but my question would be, how do you hold the balancer still when tightening the bolt?
haha that thumbnail, thumbs up for that alone
Can you make video of oil pump seal on a Acura TL 3.2 2006
Man why couldn't you have posted this like 2 weeks ago lol. I was stuck at my friend's house for 3 days trying to finish my timing belt on my 4Runner. I'm smacking myself for not thinking of that clip trick
ok so i have a 2016 accord v6. Need the timing belt done. What all do you recomend replacing when doing the job? Any of the pully's? Is the hydrallic tensioner part of the tensioner pully itself?
yeah use the bump start method and possibly destroy the valves and pistons great idea Ginger
Brian I've had an odyssey 2001 and its served me well aside from trans rebuild and cooky electrical problems and oh, yes the Machiavellian engineering making self repairs seem like a seen from 'A Beautiful Mind'. I'm currently looking for another used vehicle and to be honest the odyssey has been a bittersweet experience. I'm looking at the Tundra, or a newer odyssey.
I'm open. Can you recommend a vehicle
Wish you were closer.
Thank you!
Thank you.
Hey Brian, I have a 2002 Accord 3.0 and need to do the timing belt on it, so thank you for such a timely video. I have been doing research, and a couple of places indicate that the 3.0L Honda engine and I think the 3.6L are the only two Non Interference engines in the Honda line up. Can you confirm or deny this? If it is not an interference engine, should I wait to do the belt until it breaks, or just bite the bullet and spend the weekend getting the job done?
Does the engine have to be supported somewhere since one of the motor mounts has to come off? I'll be Doing this job on jack stands, on the ground.
yo brian. I just changed whole timing set in my vtis prelude. I got problem cause one of new seals is leaking and I need to change it. would you recommend me to buy new set of belts etc if I need to dismantle it or can I put it all together just like it is (car drove like 50km on it).
cheers
You get a like for your thumb nail alone lol.
good tips. thumbed up. 300k miles? how many transmission did that car go through? that generation has notorious transmissions
For all the years you have worked as an auto tech,did the camshafts ever jump on you,after you removed the timing belt ? Should it jumped,how did you get it to position,turn either way or just clock wise ?
Also you can grease your bearings and iddlers with mobil one high temp syntethic grease,pop the seals and greae them,i have a aveo that shatters the plastic iddlers but since i grease them,they have last 200k i also change the plastic iddler to a metal one,same size of close to.
Can you replace the timing tension WITHOUT set the timing mark on 2006 Acura MDX
I had the tensioner failure I replace it and it still has the clacking sound what do you think happen or I did wrong I bought the hydro tensioner from autozone could it have been faulty
Did you brace the engine from underneath to compensate for the engine mount being temporarily remove.
Thank You Brian. I have a question. I have 2004 Honda Pilot and have an error code 0341 which is the CMP sensor.My mechanic says that I have to remove the timing belt in order to remove the CMP sensor, however, other mechanics say that it is not necessary to remove the timing belt could You please tell me what to do? I am confused also
So my main question is. Should all indentations match up at the same time when at TDC?
If i turned my engine clockwise by the front cam without the metal dowl in the crank gear a quarter can i just turn it back to align the dowl will that be fine or am i out of timing now?
Great video.
Thanks baby!
hi Sir Brian, This engine is interference , Am I right? coz I have a 97 Acura RL 3.5 v6,, planning to change the timing belt too. thanks for your tips.. Awesome video...
Hondas and Acuras are the same designed,in terms of the timing belt alignments,right?
if the belt snaped, will the valves hit the piston in the 3.0 one?
After the timing belt change. No engine error, no code. All ok. Except, there is a small faint knoking sound from the engine and the engine seems to be running stronger than before. Meaning, a stronger noise too. Would that be something with the timing belt change?
question - so you mean to inform us that between 0:30 & 3:45, as long as the markings on he pulleys are aligned with the markings on the motor itself, we will be ok?
I ask bc Hayne's Manual makes it seem like it is the end of world if one does not align the #1 piston/valve/what have you with "Top Dead Center"...
It’s a great tech video with good info but why not clean all the power steering fluid and oil that was leaking in there before putting a new belt??
cool...ty
The timing (pun intended) of this video was poor in my circumstances. But that was out of your control. I just did this job 2 weeks ago on my wife's car with 220,000 miles (second time I've done it on this car, we have had it awhile). Unfortunately I screwed up the timing, the car wouldn't start so I enlisted the help of a mechanic buddy with more experience. I pulled it apart again and found the rear cam was off about 90deg. I'm not sure how that happened, after getting the new timing belt on I checked all my marks or at least thought I did and thought it was all good. I wished I would have marked them all with white paint, that would have helped. I think what I did was while trying to put tension on the belt between the rear and front cam pulleys I turned the rear cam, noticed it turned and turned it back, but it must have moved again and I didn't realize it. So after correcting the timing on all the pulleys the second time around, I had my buddy check and it all looked good. Fortunately turning the motor over with it out of timing didn't bend any valves that I know of and it runs great now.
I have 2003 Accord V6, won’t start. I know I will need timing belt kit, but how can I know if the valves are damaged? Any input will be helpful.
