Ok, thanks, will have a look when head is back together. Flywheel is pristine (only the slot and no writing etc.) as I reconditioned most of the engine last year before putting it back in the vehicle. Yes, only rotating clockwise and by hand. Cheers,

I have the head off at the moment and everything looks fine, nothing loose or broken. Just waiting for new pushrods before I reassemble it

Hi, Although I agree with you that accuracy is the key.....When I dismantled the engine it was running and the marks all lined up so as I haven't changed anything the timing mark cannot be wrong...it lines up perfectly every time. I really doubt checking with dti will show much (if any) of an...

Absolutely no idea and no idea how to find out. Spain has very little assistance for these things (any help usually comes from an ex-pat!!)

Ok got that, accuracy is good.....however when I dismantled the engine TDC was already marked in white paint in the housing. If I do it 'by eye' it lines up every time to +/- 0.5mm so I think I have it damn close. It may come in handy for finding EP on number 1 valve?? I will order one...

Nothing above the lift pump

Ok....I don't have one of those......is it 100% necessary?

The timing belt I purchased is exactly the same part number as the broken one and it was working fine until I started lol

I have no idea but everything in the manual is identical, all the pictures are the same . When I reassemble everything I am going to try lining up all 3 dots on the three arrows and see what happens! I've tried everything else by the manual and it doesn't work. I can't reassemble fully just...

I

The last pic is exactly like mine...I have marked where TDC is . What is "dti"?

Hi, There is no reference to 12j or 13j anywhere on this engine! Only the engine number beginning with E Yes I have the pump locking tool as well as the flywheel locking tool. My flywheel does not have EP marked on the flywheel mark as shown in the book, just the mark! Also I do not have a...

Hi, Everything about this engine is exactly as the manual and pictures you show. I attempted the timing for a later engine with the lock pin on the flywheel mark (it is about 1.5 inches from the window and is just past TDC cylinder 1.) When the camshaft dot is lined up with its arrow valve 1 is...

Nope all good and solid

My engine number is on top right next to the exhaust and inlet manifold. Engine number is E74700663

Yes have the correct manual and the timing instructions are very clear and easy to follow. I don't see how it can be a 'turn' out as its by the book so to speak.....neither the crankshaft pulley or camshaft pulley have been removed. I do not know which valves should be in what position when the...

I had the same problem before I took the rocker assembly off. There's no nut in the bore lol but I have done daft things before so rule nothing out....when it was mis-timed it rotated ok its only since I have tried to time it as the manual that thus has occurred. Just in case anyone else is...
