1993 J spec TT Automatic trans. Cambelt change.
With the help of a manual from CJ :d
Parts needed:
Part no. 13568-49036. C3F1 Timing belt
Part no. 08889-80002. A1G1 Coolant – 2 x 5 litres.
Special tools needed:
Special tool to lock crankshaft pulley. (Home made)
Special tool to remove crankshaft pulley from crankshaft. (Home made)
Special tool to remove cambelt pulley from crankshaft. (Gear Puller)
Also added an 8mm Tap and wrench to the kit so that the threads in the crank pulley can be cleared out as they become clogged with dirt over time.
If any one needs to borrow the tools for locking the crankshaft pulley and removing crank pulley, PM me.
If anyone wants to buy the tools, I will make more as and when they are requested, again PM me for a price.
Raise car and support on axle stands. Engine should be cold.
Disconnect battery. Remove battery and battery tray.
3 bolts-10mm socket.
Remove engine under cover. 10mm socket
Remove No.2 air tube including bracket, don’t remove bracket from pipe.
Loosen bottom radiator hose and drain coolant into a bucket.
Important: Do not let coolant escape into drains. Pour in to another container and dispose of at your local oil disposal.
Remove air cleaner duct and No. 5 air hose. Top radiator hose and overflow pipe.
Disconnect electric fan and water temp switch plugs
Carefully remove wiring loom from radiator shroud.
Remove electric fan assembly.
Remove radiator shroud.
Disconnect Auto trans fluid cooler pipes from radiator and plug off. A couple of clean 10mm drill bits (shank end) will plug the pipes.
Remove top clamps holding radiator and remove rad. May need a very gentle tap from underneath to free it. Carefully lift out taking care not to damage the core mesh.
Remove drive belt, fan and fluid coupling assembly by loosening 4 bolts holding fan to water pump. 12mm spanner.
Remove drive belt by placing a spanner on the bolt head on the drive belt tensioner pulley and turning the drive belt tensioner clockwise
Remove No. 3 Timing belt cover (top). 5mm hexagon wrench, 10 bolts.
Remove No. 2 Timing belt cover (front). 5mm hex wrench, 3 bolts.
Remove drive belt tensioner. 12mm socket, 3 bolts.
Set No.1 cylinder to TDC. Turn crank pulley and align groove on pulley with timing mark “0” on No. 1 Timing belt cover.
Check timing marks on camshaft timing pulleys are aligned with marks on No. 4 timing cover, if not turn crank one revolution (360°)
Remove Alternator for access to Timing belt tensioner. You should be able to disconnect only the multi-way connector leaving the larger cable connected and rest alternator on a cloth on the inner wing by the strut turret.
Alternately loosen the two bolts a bit at a time to remove the tensioner and the dust boot.
Disconnect Timing belt from camshaft timing pulleys.
To remove the crankshaft pulley, you will need to use a special tool to lock crank pulley.
Use a penetrating fluid like WD40 on the crankshaft pulley bolt 24 hours before attempting to loosen bolt. This may help to loosen bolt.
Place a 22mm socket on crank pulley bolt and turn anti-clockwise to loosen bolt.
Important: Do not apply any heat to the bolt or pulley as this will damage the rubber inside the crankshaft pulley and can also damage the front crankshaft oil seal.
Re-align crank pulley timing marks if it has moved slightly from loosening bolt.
Use special tool to remove crank pulley from crankshaft, crank pulley is an interference fit on crankshaft so it will not just pull off.
Remove No.1 Timing belt cover and cambelt guide now crank pulley has been removed.
Remove cambelt tensioner idler pulley using a 10mm Hex Allen wrench.
Check for play and turning smoothness. If necessary replace the idler pulley.
Inspect timing belt tensioner.
(a) Visually check tensioner for oil leakage. If only a feint trace of oil on the seal on the push rod side, the tensioner is ok.
If leakage is found, replace tensioner.
(b) Hold the tensioner with both hands and push the rod strongly against the floor or wall to check that it doesn’t move.
If push rod moves, replace tensioner.
(c) Measure the protrusion of the push rod from the housing end.
Protrusion 8.0 – 8.8mm
If not as specified, replace tensioner.
Crankshaft front oil seal.
To check front crankshaft oil seal for leaks, the crankshaft timing pulley will need to be removed. To remove timing pulley the timing belt plate will also need to be removed.
Replacing Cambelt.
Replace crankshaft timing pulley if it has been removed. Align the key with the key groove on the pulley and slide the pulley on to the crankshaft with the flange side facing inward.
Install the timing belt plate with the bolt and torque to 7.8N-m (80 kgf-cm, 69 in-lbf)
Replace the cambelt tensioner idler pulley. Apply Loctite 242 thread adhesive to 2 or 3 threads on the pivot bolt.
Using a 10mm Hex wrench install plate washer and pulley with the pivot bolt.
Torque to 34 N-m (350 kgf-cm, 25 ft-lbf)
Check that the pulley bracket moves smoothly.
Temporarily install timing belt.
Engine should be cold.
Use the crankshaft pulley bolt to turn the crankshaft and align the timing marks on the crankshaft timing pulley and on the oil pump body. Make sure the crankshaft timing pulley and idler pulley are free from oil or water.
Install the timing belt on the crankshaft timing pulley and idler pulley.
At this stage I installed the timing belt on to the camshaft timing pulleys, make sure they are free of oil or water.
Align the camshaft timing pulleys with the timing marks on No. 4 timing belt cover. (They shouldn’t have moved after removing timing belt, but its better to check.)
Install the timing belt, checking the tension between the crankshaft timing pulley and the exhaust camshaft timing pulley.
Set timing belt tensioner.
If you have a press available slowly press the pushrod until the holes in the pushrod and housing are aligned, the pass a 1.5mm hex wrench through the holes to keep pushrod retracted.
Install the dust boot onto the tensioner.
If you don’t have a press available like me, replace the tensioner onto the engine then very slowly tighten the 2 bolts a small amount each at a time and this will compress the pushrod although this is not recommended.
Install timing belt tensioner.
(a) Temporarily install the tensioner with the 2 bolts.
(b) Alternately tighten the 2 bolts.

(b) Install the 2 upper radiator support clamps and 2 bolts.
Torque: 15 Nm (155 kgf-cm, 11 ft-lbf)
Check rubber cushion on the support is not depressed. (between clamp and top of radiator)
(c) Connect the reservoir tank inlet hose to rad
(d) Connect upper radiator hose to top outlet
(e) Lower radiator hose to water outlet.
(f) On Auto trans, connect the 2 oil cooler hoses to radiator.
(g) Connect the electric cooling fan assembly and connector and wire harness
(h) Connect water temperature switch connector and wire harness.

(a) Connect the claw of the No.2 fan shroud with the hook on the No.1 fan shroud. Install with the 2 clips
Install No. 5 air hose.
Install air hose with 2 clamps
Install air cleaner duct.
Connect air cleaner duct to air box and install bolt.
Install No.2 air tube.
This is the pipe that runs underneath radiator from the intercooler to No. 5 air hose.
Install with 2 clamps and 2 bolts.
Fill engine with coolant.
Check auto transmission fluid level.
Install battery tray and battery
Start engine and check for leaks
Install engine under cover
Perform road test
Check for abnormal noise, shock, slippage, correct shift points and smooth operation.
After engine has cooled, recheck coolant level.
Hope this info can help someone else. Any probs PM me and i'll try and help.
