So I thought I had the thread that I found this originally in saved but I guess not?
Went to put on the second tensioner pulley and it doesn't work like this makes it sound. The idler pulley sticks out the back while the tensioner one is inset, so the pulley edge sits against the metal.
What can I use here as a spacer?
This is what I'm talking about. 4g64 block with 4g63 head and cam gears using 4g63 timing belt and two tensioners.
"Best way is to use two tensioner pulleys. Replace the idler pulley with a tensioner pulley. Line the cams gear up to tdc like a 2l setup. Lock timing the belt to the cams gears using zip ties. Put the crank to tdc for number one cylinder. Tension the belt on the old idler pulley side first. Then do the tension on the hydraulic tension side. You can use a standard 2.0 timing belt this way. Plus the car will idle perfect this way. You can degree your cams from this point if you like but you might better off leaving it alone. "
So how did he make that work ?
I want to be able to site where I got this pic and quote from too.
Thanks!
All I can find is this someone else mentioning the same thing... I'd like to find the original person that did this so I can site them in my build.
