Installing a timing on a daewoo lanos

WATER PUMP BOLTS NEED TO BE LOOSEN.YOU NEED ROTATE WATER PUMP COUNTERCLOCKWISE USING TIMING BELT ADJUSTER J42492 TO RELIEVE TIMING BELT TENSION.

hi, just letting you know my timing belt just went on my daewoo lanos. unfortunately it seems in a daewoo lanos that when the timing belt goes, it can do damage to one of the valves. mine is in at the mechanics and i am still hoping that it hasnt done any damage. i was also told that if you have replaced the timing belt and the car still wont start it has definitely done damage to a valve. sorry to give you the bad news!!

The camshaft sprockets have an indention on them you will align them to the inside horizontally so they are side by side. The crankshaft sproket also has a timing mark on it and you will align that with the timing mark on the rear timing belt cover vertically. The tensioner aligns with with the notch on the automatic tensioner bracket. Hope this helps you.

there is a special tool to hold gears in correct place on some of these models, but you can hold one cam at a time with a spanner then feed belt on exhaust cam then inlet cam gear
get someone to hold gears in place while you feed belt on.
the inlet cam is more prone to turn off mark more than exhaust.
if you have tensioner that needs retaining pin in when installing
you fit belt while aligning timming marks
fit tensioner as last spot to feed belt on with retaining pin in adjuster
get correct tension on belt by turning water pump so that you can flex (turn) belt 90 degrees only just while using finger and thumb
tighten water pump check flex
check all timing marks are correct
remove retaining pin from auto tensioner
turn motor over a couple of turns by hand observing tensioner arrow should hover around V mark and that all timing marks align up again(after one complete turn)

• was washer put back on the crank correctly? Is there spacers or gromits that hold the timming cover on? Sometime I run car before I put all excesserys back on just to see that problem...

if timing belt snapped while engine was running valves are bent.number 1 cylinder is closest to these pulleys(gears).
the timing marks are for twin

single cam or twin?

I have a 2001 Lanos and I've replaced my belt twice (after breaking the first one at speed and having to replace the engine). The two cam gears have timing marks that should point towards each other. If you hold a ruler up with the edge of it passing through the center of the cam shaft bolts, the timing marks on each cam should be lined up on with the edge of the ruler and pointing towards each other. The crankshaft gear (not the big pulley) has a small triangle timing mark on it that should point almost straight down. There is a V cut into the oil pan that actually should line up with the cranshaft timing mark. BE VERY CAREFUL because if you rotate the crankshaft independently of the cams, you can tear up the valves very quickly.

It verifies well the year, it is of one of 1999

I hope that it should serve you

Go to mechanic and ask him to put a new timing belt, its the aftest way.
