How to set the timing on a 1993 Hyundai Elantra 1.8 with cams

Hi Gary: Try this YouTube video on how to replace the timing belt on a Hyundai Elantra. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYybUWnOlvM

P0340-cam position sensor malfunction (change)
P0130- O2 sensor malfunction 1/1 (change)

It's a '99 Elantra, have you ever replaced the timing belt? It is a belt not a chaing, so it is very much should have the belt changed. After 13 years if you haven't done the belt yet now appears to be the time to change. I have an '05 and we changed it over a year now.

Good luck!!

Hi,


It seems you are encountering problems trying to set the timing marks in your elantra,not to worry,simply follow the stepwise solution below;
Ensure timing marks aligned [6] & [7] .

STEP 1. Fit timing belt in anti-clockwise direction, starting at crankshaft sprocket. Ensure belt is taut between sprockets.

STEP 2. Slacken tensioner pulley bolt [8].Push tensioner pulley firmly against timing belt to tension belt.



STEP 3. Tighten tensioner pulley bolt [8] . Tightening torque: 43-55 Nm.


STEP 4. Except Matrix: Turn crankshaft one turn clockwise.



STEP 5. Matrix: Turn crankshaft two turns clockwise.


STEP 6. Ensure timing marks aligned [6] .


STEP 7. Apply a load of 2 kg to belt at .Belt should deflect 4-6 mm. If not Adjust position of tensioner pulley.



STEP 8. Install components in reverse order of removal.


STEP 9. Tighten crankshaft pulley bolt [2] . Tightening torque: 170-180 Nm
(7) is timing mark on cam,pin mark to top,hole in spoke below pin mark lines up with mark on head (6) is crank timing mark,pin mark on crank lines up with markS on block.





Good luck.

7 is timing mark on cam,pin mark to top,hole in spoke below pin mark lines up with mark on head
6 is crank timing mark,pin mark on crank lines up with mark on block
NOTE this mark is just before top

If you are not very mechanically inclined, timing belt removal and replacement is best left to a professional because misplacement of the crank and cam gear positions can cause the engine to run poorly or even cause damage upon starting the engine.

dear friend:here follows the settings in need:
cylinder head-30-35 nm + 30-35 + 65deg + 65deg.
mains-30nm +65deg
big ends- 1 - 26nm 2 - 52NM
fly-wheel -130nm
cam-sprocket - 100-120
crank-pulley - 170-180
cam caps -15nm

What are you talking about?.. I presume you are replacing the Timing Belt or are reinstalling it OR you want to VERIFY if the engine is in ACCURATE time? There are TWO timing MARKS.. one on the CRANKSHAFT & other on the CAM SPROCKET.
Maybe this will help.
This is with Crankshaft at TOP DEAD CENTER.

Do you mean the "Timing Belt"? There is NO Cam belt.. .there is, however, a "Cam Timing Chain"... connects the Intake & Exhaust cams together under the cam cover (valve cover). Unless you actually INSPECT the Timing Belt, no one can know... the noise might be anything! Valve tappets, timing belt Idler pully, tensioner pully, water pump bearing, you name it. Solution: Take vehicle into Hyundai Service Center - pay the diagnostic fee - they will give you an estimate of repairs (if needed) (parts, labor, tax, time-frame, etc.). This way you'll know if there's actually a problem and what it is, as well as what's required to fix it... OR that there's nothing at all wrong.

Mark are on the crank and cam timing gears. Cam gear mark at 12 o"clock crank gear mark lined up with TGC mark on block when installing timing belt.
