Timing belt failure and how to set crankshaft w/timing marks

Total failure of a timing belt means that you may have pistons hitting valves. Engine overhaul is necessary if that is the case. You can see the mark on the cam pulley and you set the crank to 0 degrees. Put the belt on.

03 Saturn vue 160 lb compression on 1/3/5 no compression on 2/4/6 timing marks are lined up.

You have 2/4/6 timing marks 180 degress out on exhaust or intake cam .

Did your special tool ?
Rotate the crankshaft using the J 42098 until the #1 cylinder is at 60 degrees before top dead center (BTDC).
Install theJ 42069 Crankshaft Locking Tool.
Rotate the crankshaft in the engine rotational direction (clockwise) using the J 42098 until the #1 cylinder is at top dead center (TDC) and tighten the lever arm to the water pump pulley flange.
Important: Ensure that the alignment of the crankshaft is not 180 degrees off. The alignment mark must align with the corresponding notches on the rear timing belt cover.
Install the 1-2 and 3-4 camshaft locks, the J42069-1 Timing Belt Alignment Kit and the J42069-2.
Important: Do not rotate the crankshaft if the camshafts are not locked in place with the 1-2 and 3-4 camshaft locks (J42069-1 and J42069-2).
Important: Do not rotate the camshafts unless the crankshaft is at 60 degrees BTDC or the valves may contact the crankshaft.
Loosen the tensioner pulley.
Remove the timing belt.

Please could you give me a diagram of the valve timing of a double O.H.C.on a toyota Rav4 3SFE engine

no year(94-present) stated. and under kia dont help much.

its at alldtata.com, i read all the steps and not skip one, I WOULD.

wild guess, #1 a 2005 RAV4
2.0L 3sfe. inline 4 cylinder, not V6


here is the one i see on the FSM.

my gates belts all come with a manual. RTM?
if you buy the belt at a dealer they assume you have the FSM.
right?
FSM, install, steps
  1. Install the oil pump pulley. Tighten the nut to 18 ft. lbs. (24 Nm).
  2. Install the crankshaft timing pulley. Align the pulley set key with the key groove of the pulley. Slide on the pulley facing the flange side inward.
  3. Install the No. 2 idler pulley and tighten the mounting bolt to 31 ft. lbs. (42 Nm). Be sure that the pulley moves smoothly.
  4. Install the No. 1 idler pulley with the bolt and the tension spring. Pry the pulley toward the left as far as it will go and tighten the bolt. Make sure that the pulley moves smoothly.
  5. Temporarily install the timing belt. Using the crankshaft pulley bolt, turn the crankshaft and position the key groove of the crankshaft timing pulley upward. If reusing the timing belt, align the points marked during removal.
  6. Install the timing belt on the crankshaft timing pulley, oil pump pulley, No. 1 idler pulley, water pump pulley and the No. 2 idler pulley.
  7. Install the timing belt guide.

  9. Align the crankshaft pulley set key with the pulley key groove. Temporarily install the crankshaft pulley and bolt.
  10. Align the camshaft knock pin with the groove of the pulley, and slide the timing pulley onto the camshaft with the plate washer and set bolt.
  11. Tighten the pulley set bolt to 40 ft. lbs. (54 Nm).
  12. Turn the crankshaft pulley and align the 0 mark on the lower (No. 1) timing belt cover.
  13. Finish installing the timing belt and check the valve timing, as follows:
    1. If reusing the old timing belt, align the matchmarks made previously and install the timing belt onto the camshaft pulley.
    2. Align the marks on the timing belt with the marks on the camshaft pulley.
    3. Loosen the No. 1 idler pulley set bolt 1 / 2 turn.
    4. Turn the crankshaft pulley 2 complete revolutions TDC to TDC. ALWAYS turn the crankshaft CLOCKWISE. Check that the pulleys are still in alignment with the timing marks.
    5. If the No. 1 idler pulley uses a green tension spring, slowly turn the crankshaft pulley 1 7 / 8 revolutions, and align its groove with the mark at 45 degrees BTDC (for the No. 1 cylinder) of the No. 1 timing belt cover.
    6. Tighten the No. 1 idler pulley set bolt to 31 ft. lbs. (42 Nm).
    7. Be sure there is belt tension between the crankshaft and camshaft timing pulleys.
  14. Place the right-hand engine mounting bracket in position but do not install the bolts.
  15. Install the upper (No. 2) timing cover with a new gasket(s).
  16. Remove the engine crankshaft pulley bolt and pulley.

While replacing timing belt on my 2003 pt cruiser (2.4 liter) I got the belt on with the crank pulley and compression pulley (top front) in timing but exhaust pulley (top rear) off by one tooth. Took belt...

To readjust the cam timing loosen of the valve rockers so that the valves will not move as the cams are turned.. Set the crankshaft on TDC no 1 piston. This will make the mark on the crank sprocket line up with a mark on the housing. The cam shaft marks are to ne facing each other with the "up" marks facing up. Loosen of the adjuster idler and use an allen key to lever the pulley away from the belt. Fit belt and let tensioner off Ensure tensioner spring is in line with the notch. Repeat procedure to get it there.. The valves will now be timed . replace the rockers and adjust as required . The problem that you had is that there was load on the cam lobes from incorrect positioning of the cam shafts and the shaft turns until the load was equal between two lobes.. There is every possibility that there will be bent valves as it is an interference motor.

Can u help me with a timing setting on my 97 toyota camary le 2.2ll or some kind of mark to guide me on?

Hi,
Are you looking for ignition timing or valve timing marks?
The ignition timing is set at 10 degrees BTC. the marks are at the front of the engine and the degrees are scaled onto a raised molding on the plastic timing belt cover. There is a line marked on the pulley. Paint with correcting fluid the 10 degree mark and the pulley mark. Correct timing is 10 degrees BTC.
Before setting, open the diagnostic connector in the engine compartment and using a short piece of electrical wire and bridge between "T" and 'E' If this is not done the timing will not be corrected.
If you've replaced the timing belt and you're looking for the timing marks, the mark for the crank shaft is a raised casting forming a small pointer for the crank shaft which aligns with a groove in the crank timing gear....When looking from above at the relevant section of the engine, it will appear on your right hand side just above the crankshaft timing gear.
The marks for the cams are holes drilled through each and these should be aligned with punch marks on the cylinder head. The best way of doing this job is by using a mirror and illuminating between the cam gears and the cylinder head.
Hope this helps
Regards Johngee10
