RBS:
Must apologise but family stuff is taking over my weekend!!
So timingbelt & co will be for next weekend…
In the mean time I got to sneak out today and had some chain timing check
done…
Phase position bank 1 is -2*
What do you guys think?! Should I change it also or leave it?? :thinking:
RBS:
It’s been a couple of weeks now since the cambelt & co
have been changed… everything is allright, engine runs like a kitten :jumpmove:
And here are some shots…
Was a big job but very satisfying😁
The only trouble was the enginemount in the block…
That is the whorst piece of automotive engeniering!! to get out!!😓
But in the end it came out… just stayed calm and thought it over…😁
After instaling everything back, a 034 Motorsport enginemount came in.
Next up are the thermostats and the gearboxmount.Will do them in the next following weekends…
So will be continued here :wink:

Definitely - juggling the cover and mount is not the best
RBS:
Yes! You’re right! It’s actually not the enginebracket but the bolt from the timingbelt
Cover!! That little piece of s**t is hard to reach!! It’s on blind sight and feel to get a bit on to it!! Once it’s loose… it’s party :jumpmove: remove the cover first then
rise the engine completely up!!! And then at last whigle the bracket out… :jumpmove:
Maybe a tip : when putting it all back together… I used the old roller to tighten the belt and check timing. Then I removed it and marked the belt… whigled the bracket and cover back into place. Then I put the new roller on (tightend it to 25Nm).
Tightend the timingcover bolts (7 of them to 8Nm) and then the enginebracket. I think it was 3 x 45Nm for the bolts.
The rest was all simple 😁
