Timing Belt Change 200 TDI Land Rover (page 2)

Its got a gasket on it, so it may take some prising off. Note that my crank damper
is removed. You may need to use a puller to remove this, but mine was loose after
I undid the bolt. It has a woodruff key that signifies the crank is at TDC.

Here it is all removed, timing gear on show.

Now you must do set the timing. I had difficulty setting the injector pump
timing as some cowboy had been there before me and I couldn't get the pin in
(above pic), so I cut the belt off and started to line it all up properly.

This is what we need to do. (above pic) Bottom right is the crankshaft, that
woodruff key (little square notch on top of crank) sits at 12 o'clock in line
with the arrow above it. Lock this in place by putting a locking pin in the
flywheel housing drain plug  (next picture below).  The top one is the camshaft,
you can just see a small dot on the face of the pulley, that lines up with the
arrow opposite it.  The one to the left is the injection pump. I loosen the
three bolts on the front that hold the plate on, then put the locating pin to
lock the pump in place, I tighten the bolts back up when the belt is on in the
right place the pin fits in at the 11 o'clock position. If its at 5 o'clock your
180degrees out so turn the motor around (with belt on, rotate crank pulley
so it all moves around in time). The wheel in the bottom middle is the tensioner.

If I look under the drivers door of my 110 towards the gear box then this is
what I see, the shiny bit is the locking pin I have just put in place. If you actually
look through the hole before you put it in you will easily see the groove it fits in.

Using the two torque wrenches you set the tension of the new belt, make
sure the injection pump 3 bolts are tight now, then remove the locking pins
(flywheel on as well!) then turn the engine over by hand (use crank damper)
and make sure nothing catches (if timing is way out, then you will notice
straight away that the engine won't rotate, it'll lock as valves/pistons touch. )
