    This video is a complete step by step process to replace the timing belt on a Toyota 2UZ-FE V8 engine. Most of these engines appear in Tundras and Sequoias up to 2004, but also in Land Cruiser, Lexus and a couple years of 4 Runners. We also replace a whole kit and other parts associated with the timing belt. The kit includes the belt, tensioner, idler pulley, bearing pulley, and water pump and gasket. In addition, we replaced the fan pulley bracket, the fan clutch, the accessory belt, the accessory tensioner and idler pulley and the upper and lower radiator hoses.
    Some tools needed include:
    Torque wrench
    Metric socket set, deep and standard
    Phillips and flathead screwdrivers
    Slipjoint pliers, taped
    Long handle needle nose pliers
    Camshaft pulley holder
    Pulley puller
    Parts used in the project include:
    Aisin Timing Belt kit: part # TKT-021
    Aisin Fan Pulley Bracket: part # FBT-002
    Aisin Fan Clutch: part # FCT-018
    Gates Accessory Belt Tensioner: part # 38488
    Gates Accessory Belt Idler Pulley: part # 36026
    Dayco upper radiator hose: #56469SJ
    Dayco lower radiator hose: #16342MK
    Toyota oil cooler hose: #15777-50060
    Toyota oil cooler by-pass hose upper: #16281-0F010
    Toyota oil cooler by-pass hose lower: #16282-0F010
    Torque specs include:
    34.5 Nm on the timing idler and bearing pulleys
    18 Nm on the studs and 21 Nm on the bolts for the water pump
    245 Nm or 181 ftlbs on the crank pulley bolt
    16 Nm on the small bolts and 32 Nm on the large for the fan pulley bracket
    16 Nm on the accessory belt tensioner
    39 Nm on the accessory idler pulley
    30 Nm on the fan clutch pulley bracket to the fan assembly
    I have had a lot of questions in the comments about lining up marks on the pulleys and engine. Some timing belts have marks and some don't (the Aisin ones do have marks) and those marks can be used and can be helpful, but they can also be frustrating. I have responded as much as possible, but I found a great comment on Tundras.com from member Aerindel and I wanted to share his comment below:
    "Those marks on the belt will only line up at one position, after you install the belt, it may take several dozens [many, many] of revolutions to get back to that same position.
    But that doesn't matter. What matters is that your cams line up with their marks and the crank lines up with its marks. The marks on the belt itself are just to make sure you have the right tension between components.
    Also remember, the crank and cams will not line up with every revolution, its a four cycle engine. It will take TWO revolutions of your crank shaft to make the cams rotate once, or in other words, every other full rotation of your cams, will result in your crank being 180º off.
    The important thing is that everything lines up at top dead center [zero mark].
    Also, as long as you can turn it over by hand without resistance, you aren't going to hurt anything by trying to turn it over. The danger with timing is that if its off enough that the pistons will hit the valves....but if you can crank it over a few times by hand without hitting anything, your good to go (timing may still be off but your not going to smash your valves)"
    Again, very important, check your work by turning the crank by hand to make sure that no internal engine components are hitting.

    The timing (no pun intended) of this video for me is perfect. I’ve been meaning to DIY this project. Have CZcamsd many other repairs. Just a little nervous on some of the videos I’ve seen for timing belt replacement. This video was excellent. Very detailed and thorough. Thanks for the parts info as well and the torque specs. I’ve got a buddy that is going to help. Now for the back story. 2003 Sequoia SR5. Honestly don’t know if the timing has been replaced. I don’t recall ever paying a mechanic to do it, think I’m too cheap to have done that. Either way I know I’ve been told by Toyota dealers to replace since I was in MN 11-14 years ago. The guys in CA were telling me the engine will fail soon without new belt. That was 7-10 years ago. 272k+ on her and now just thinking it’s time to do it. Haha. Lots of squealing noises under the hood so looking forward to all the part replacements eliminating that.
    I will report back when done.

    THANK YOU for a great DIY video. I just bought an '04 Sequoia with 250K on the odometer, and an unknown service history. Your instructions were impeccable.
    One thing I might suggest is to wait until the new timing belt is mounted before bolting in the tensioner. I could not mount my belt onto the gears with the new tensioner installed, even with the pin still in it. By loosening the bolts until it was barely hanging on, the idler would swivel further down into its hole, and the belt then went on easily.
    I plunked out some $$ for a great chain wrench. Made immobilizing the crank pulley much easier for getting the timing belt properly installed, as well as for torquing the crank pulley bolt. As suggested in the Haynes manual, it is a good idea to cut a piece of the old serpentine belt and tape it to the harmonic balancer, in order to prevent damage to the pulley. Also, most people know this trick, but in case someone is not aware, putting a large wrench or breaker bar on the crank bolt and running the starter for about 1/4 second is a great fast way to loosen that bolt. (My impact wrench would not fit in the available space.)
    Again, most grateful for an excellent video!

    Just a suggestion.....when doing this project you should definitely consider putting in a new radiator. The radiators fail internally without warning and mixes transmission fluid into your antifreeze. Mine just failed yesterday at 144k miles. Apparently it is a very common occurrence on these trucks. The radiator itself is actually pretty cheap at under $200. Definitely an easier job to do BEFORE it fails, because now I have to flush both my coolant AND my transmission to get everything cleaned out again. I was very lucky that I noticed the problem before my transmission was ruined. This time instead of using the internal radiator cooler for the transmission, I installed a separate transmission cooler in front of the AC condenser, so this issue can never happen again, and also to help keep the transmission even cooler, since I tow sometimes. Just a little heads up. Great video......keep those Tundras alive!

    • @gdupler1966
      @gdupler1966  Před 3 lety

      Good points here. Another friend suggested replacing the thermostat and that is certainly a good, cheap addition to the project. I have kept the coolant flushed and fresh since the truck was nearly new, but I agree that replacing the radiator is a good idea above 200k and likely a must above 300k. I also like the separate transmission oil cooler for a permanent fix.

    Right, the bottom line is that the Left and Right Cam pulleys along with Crank line up at their designated TDC marks. The Timing Belt marks are an additional step for accuracy purposes that all timing components are inline (referenced) correctly to each other, in fact after initial line up with Timing Belt marks and the three pulleys, after two rations of the Crank these marks will no longer line up, but as we know the TDC marks on the pulleys Better line up with their respective TDC marks on the backplates of the pulleys.

They just put a sticker saying the timing belt was done. I wasn’t quick enough to challenge them though. Now I have 255k on my 2001 Sequoia. She is still running and shifting great, but I want to do the necessary maintenance. This video was probably the best tutorial I’ve seen. Thanks for the torque values as well.

People don’t understand how much extra effort you put into an already hard install. But add making an informative N short straight to the point videos. To help other save thousands. (Those with qualified experience, knowledge of engine mechanical works and lastly confidence) Its nice to have something to refer back to and 9/10 whenever I ask questions they are answered without any bs. I’m not a specialist in any particular field. I enjoy working on my own trucks. Because 9/10 when you have the block broken down you see other problematic things that need to replace. And inspect areas may break down. Some shops purposely just ignore it so the customer can return 3 months later to supplement their income.

You can just pull off the bottom part and then slide the rad up through the top with the shroud in place. It will save you a little bit of time and hassle.

    Thank you for the video, I’m planning on replacing the timing belt on two 2002 Toyota tundras in the winter.
    Now for my question:
    I read a comment on another video that said the proper place to align the timing belt is NOT at TDC, it is where the T mark is.
    I always get confused watching these timing belt videos because everyone seems to disagree about something, can you explain it plain and simple for me??
    Thank you!!

    • @gdupler1966
      @gdupler1966  Před 3 lety +1

      Thank you for watching! The simplest answer I know for TDC versus the T mark is that it depends upon the year. 2000 to 2004 are the simplest and you align to TDC. 2005 and above you use the T mark in some form or fashion (due to the VVT-i). The instructions from the Aisin kit are as follows depending upon the year:
      2000-04:
      Turn the crankshaft clockwise until No.1 cylinder at TDC with timing marks aligned.
      2005-08:
      Turn the crankshaft clockwise until No.1 cylinder at TDC with timing marks aligned.
      Turn the crankshaft clockwise a further 50° until pulley timing mark aligned with guide pulley bolt.
      Camshaft sprocket timing marks will move forward 25°
      2009:
      Turn the crankshaft clockwise until notch on sprocket guide is aligned with mark on oil pump body.
      Ensure camshaft sprocket timing marks are aligned.
      Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise 50° until notch on sprocket guide is at approximately the 12 o'clock position.
      Camshaft sprocket timing marks will move approximately 25° counterclockwise and will no longer be aligned.

    This video is just what I needed today! I'm just ready to install a timing belt on my 2003 Tundra 4.7 V-8 and after watching you have answered some questions I really need help with. So, thank you for that. I can't recall, but what is the starting sequence to reboot computer etc.. Is it..turn ignition to on, then off 2 times then start on the 3rd? I hope this makes sense. Thanks so much!

      Good deal, happy to help! If the battery is disconnected for 5 to 10 minutes, the ecm will reset and clear any codes. I haven't done any particular reset procedure after replacing the belt and parts, but it would be good to turn to ignition, sit there for 30 seconds or so, then turn off and then crank it.

    I’m having some trouble with the lower fan bracket bolt underneath the AC compressor re-installing it for some reason it won’t screw back on. Did you have trouble reinstalling that bolt?

    Great video! Very informative. I have experience replacing timing belts on the 3.4L in the 4Runner. Are there seals behind the cams and crank gears similar to the 3.4L?

      Thanks! Yes, there are seals but in my experience they have good longevity and I don't mess with them unless there is a problem. The process is more involved than the 3.4 and the cam seals include removing the valve covers and unbolting the cam guides.

      Thanks! I watched a video on replacing the seals and you are correct. More involved than the 3.4L. It seems that if you are replacing the valve cover gaskets that would be the time to do the cam shaft seals.

      @@craigoller9283 I agree. If there is an issue with the valve covers when you are working on the timing belt that would be the time to take a hard look at the seals.

    Great video. But, I was hoping to see the change out of the camshaft position sensor. I’m trying to do this by removing the camshaft cover only...not the whole front

    I have stressor is, don't forget to replace the idler pulleys. I own the Sequoia where somebody didn't do that and their place the timing belt itself and I thought it was something like a serpentine pulley but no I had to do an entire timing belt to replace them. Also, if you hear a grinding noise, I highly recommend pulling off your serpentine and running it and seeing where it's at, otherwise, one of them can seize and the timing belt will break and you don't want to drop a valve on these engines these are very expensive engines.

    • @gdupler1966
      @gdupler1966  Před 2 lety

      Yes, I agree. We did the idlers as well. There are some with the kit and the accessory idler is available separately.

    I believe those bolt holes on the crank pulley can also be used with a pulley holder like I used on my Lexus several years ago? Correct
