    Easily the most clear and concise video for a timing belt replacement on these 2.4l engines. Much appreciated!

    THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Seriously though, thank you for taking the time to do this. My timing belt at a red light this past week, and I had to get my car towed an hour from where I was back to my house. Of course everyone was quoting us a $800-$1200 price to get it fixed, and my dad was convinced he could do it, although he knows nothing about Mitsubishi or timing belt replacements. We did get everything fixed & IT RUNS great now!! There are a couple little things that I had to find out outside of this video - maybe commenting about the major one will get this answered for someone in the future.
    I have a 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse, 4 cylinder 2.4L engine; When you said we need to unscrew the bolt "directly behind the exhaust manifold", we could not figure out which bolt it was in my car; we unscrewed the one we believed it was, but there was absolutely no space to get an allen key in there to check if it was blocked. There was not alot of space between the bolt plug and the exhaust manifold for us to do so; we ended up just doing the other timing test, where the gravity will pull it the right way, regardless if it looks like the white mark is lined up with the arrow (I found it on another video). It's probably just in a slightly different place than this cars' is, which makes perfect sense. So if anyone has this problem too, try doing the gravity trick and see if that helps.
    Other than that, these videos helped out so much and saved me alot of time and MONEY! I appreciate it very much!

    I bought a 2009 Facebook Marketplace Eclipse special a couple of days ago. The last time I did a timing belt was on a ‘88 Honda Gold Wing using Dad’s shop manual back in the mid 90’s. So needless to say, this is one of the better CZcams University videos that will help me accomplish this task. The timing belt tensioner has me worried a bit and checking the cam through an access behind the exhaust manifold surprised me. Thank you.

    But as Mitsubishi’s are a new world to me , this was a great guide !

    used these videos to replace my timing belts, pulleys, water pump, and tensioner. now my car is back on the road and running better then ever. the only thing i wish these videos would have included would be putting the serpentine pulleys back on with the torque specs. but awsome video. and when putting the timing belt tensioner back in and releasing the pin. when the pistion is out and touching the bracket as long as you can get the pin back into the first two holes you are good.

  • @dannyelregio
    @dannyelregio Před rokem +2

    Great video. But actually it's better if you don't remove the pin on the hydraulic tensioner, and rotate the crankshaft gear a few times until a new alignment, and then just check if the inserted pin still moves freely. If it doesn't, then readjust the tension on the belt until the pin moves freely again (without ever removing it). Then after anew rotation and the 15 minutes if the pin is still moving loose inside the two holes, you're good to go, remove it and that's it. This way you skip the potential removal and new compression of the hydraulic tensioner

    I did it! Thank you for sharing the video. On my 2002 Mit Galant, I was able to change the timing belt, water pump and did run into a problem when I reinstalled the crankshaft sensor. Appears I set it wrong and it got shaved when I started the motor.(long story, took a while for me to figure it out) But, once I installed the new sensor, it started and appears to be running good. BTW, I had to reset the check engine light as the old sensor threw a code. Thank goodness for harbor freight, i got the tool that resets the check engine. All is good now, drives nicely, next I will be attempting to change the struts, shocks and brakes! Thank you again

    What a perfect video. I have literature saying to remove the cylinder block plug and put a bolt in it when aligning the oil pump but it doesn't give any reference as to where the plug is located other then a poorly drawn diagram that I mistook for an Allen key plug for the balancer shaft and ended up stripping it and drilling it out. Hopefully no harm done and I can just rethread it and put in a new plug. Very frustrating to say the least. Thank you for the detailed and very easily understanding video but most of all thanks for showing exact location of that plug.

    You can use a pair of right angled pointy nosed or better still a pair of right angled circlip pliers in the two holes of the bearing to adjust the tensioner bearing on the main belt instead of a screw driver, works like a charm. Also if you are doing the water pump why not replace the crank shaft and camshaft seals while you are at it especially if the belt is being replaced for the second time. To be real fussy you should also check the hydraulic tensioner by compressing as shown then let it sit for 20 minutes or more without the lock pin (I use a pop Rivet) to see if the little rod comes all the way out under its own steam, this way you can be sure that the tensioner is not weak or it is ok.

    When testing the mark alignment with a 2004 Lancer with a 2.4 motor, all the timing marks only line up on 3 rotations, not 2 or 4. The only one that does not line up each time is the balance shaft attached to the oil pump. I've checked the position of the oil pump gear using the "gravity" method and checking the alignment hole. Both put the gear at the timing mark as being correctly positioned before testing rotation. Should it ALWAYS line up at a full compression cycle rotation (2, 4, 6, etc)? I can't imagine it will work out every time as the ratio for the crank to oil pump gear is 4:3. Crank gear has 24 teeth, cam gear has 48, oil pump gear has 18 and the other balance shaft gear has 19 (yes, I checked it twice). Is that correct? Seems odd.

    Thanks, just had to re-due the Oil Shaft Balance Yesterday, after just lining up the Timing makes as some other posts Said (they never mentioned the Balance check)

    Awesome video my man! I believe you answered my question and problem. Yesterday my 04' Outlander spilled its guts of coolant but it was coming from the left side of the engine, instead of the radiator or reservoir and i couldnt figure it out. Car of course over heated and when i turned on the heater, no heat came out. Eventually after an attempt to limp home with stop-cool-go's ..she finally gave up on me and croaked along with what im guessing was the timing belt. Im sure the water pump died, but i still need to find where it was spraying and leaking from.
