Step 1: Verify Top Dead Center (TDC)
Ensure the pistons are at the top of their respective cylinders before replacing the belt. This is known as Top Dead Center (TDC).
Step 2: Release Tensioner Pin
Locate the tensioner pin and pull it out to release the tension on the timing belt.
Step 3: Rotate Crankshaft 720 Degrees
Turn the crankshaft 720 degrees (two full rotations). Ensure that all the timing marks on the pulleys align correctly after the rotation.
Note for Rotation Test
Remember: The marks on the timing belt will not align perfectly after the rotation. Instead, check for alignment of the timing marks on the pulleys.
