setting the timing on a 200 and a 300

[stuntman]

Hello everyone, could some that's done this before please help

I have rebuilt my 200tdi that I've had sat on the stand for the last year eventually and it's had new timing gear and a re-furb pump.

Everything was lined up properly etc and the belt slipped on, could someone tell me if there is anything else I need to do etc, or will this be ok?

Sorry for my ignorance but I'm slowly learning the art of caring for the derv burners.

Once I've done this I also need to sort out the timing belt on my 300 :)

Oh the fun

if you have aligned all the pulleys properly using the timing pins and the belt slipped on then tighten the tensioner and pump pulley and turn the engine over twice by hand to make sure nothing hits each other that should be it!!

As above

But make sure the timing pins go in easy after two rotations of the engine

This explain it better?


Slacken Injector pump sprocket bolts [10]

Fit timing belt, ensure belt is taut on the non tensioned side

Fit tensioner ensuring it is located on a dowel pin

Insert torque wrench in square hole [11]

Insert torque wrench, held in a vertical position
Apply 21.7 Nm to tension belt (new belt), 16.3 used belt

Tighten tensioner bolt [9]. Torque to 25Nm

Tighten injector pump sprocket bolts [10], torque 25Nm

Remove timing pins [7] & [8] is on the bell housing into the ring gear on starter

Turn crankshaft two turns clockwise. Repeat tensioning procedure. This is important to avoid premature timing belt failure

Turn crankshaft 2 more turns clockwise, ensure flywheel timing pin can be inserted

Ensure timing marks aligned

Insert timing pin in injection pump sprocket

If timing pin cannot be inserted, slacken injection pump sprocket bolts [10]

Turn sprocket hub until timing pin can easily be inserted. Tighten injection pump sprocket bolts [10], torque to 25 Nm
