How to Install Timing Belt on a Geo Tracker

Комедия

This is a simple and easy how to install a new timing belt on a geo tracker 8 valve, 1989 to 1995. Great for people who have never done a timing belt or people who just want see how its done before they tear theirs apart. Ive included links to the belt kit for a 8 valve here and a 16 valve below as the process is the same.

    Do you have a video replacing the cam shaft and crank seals? I'm fixin to do a water pump and TB job on a 93 tracker RWD and I think the seals may be leaking based on location of oil leaks. Also is that the best way to do timing before installing belt. I saw a video where they stuck a screw driver in spark plug hole and watched for it to come to TDC. Your method seems much much easier. Thanks...good video.

    TheAugiedoggie1 Thanks, Ive done 5 just Like I have it in the video, I dont like putting screw drivers where spark plugs go. besides you dont need to if you line up the marks, its top dead center every time.

    By far the best Tracker timing belt video, line up easy to find timing marks makes for fool proof perfection. The spark plug method is for using mechanical knowledge for those who don't know they have timing marks and also very hard to be accurate. Creepycrawler has done this 5 times and it's so much better than someone who's doing it for their first time, like so many other videos on here. My bigger question is this an interference engine or one that will become destroyed if the belt breaks, or can it break and get replaced without issues? Thanks for having the best video on here Creepy.

    Ka3Ty thank you it means a lot I’m glad it helped you. The 8 valve is non interference and the 16valve I’m pretty certain is non interference as well. But I can’t say for certain

    Ah, very good to know, Thanks Creekycrawler, if there ever is a next to replace the timing belt, it'll be when this gates one I just put on breaks. I've had this what appears to be about 7mm hose that at the bottom plugs into the front on the transfer case and the top has always been unconnected, does that plug into the bottom of the vacuum or I guess it's called a vapor charcoal canister? I felt under it and it seems to have a place for it under there? Thanks and yes your video is very helpful.

    Nicolas Sebastian Sarno Valenzuela possible they will run with the belt a tooth or two off. They are underpowered even when everything is working right though

    I noticed that 6 of the 8 rocker arm bolts are missing, and it looks like some of the valve lash screws are run all of the way out. Was this a running engine, or just one you used for instructional purposes? Also, I believe the proper procedure for tensioning the timing belt is to back all of the valve lash adjusters out to where they don't engage the valves while you tension the timing belt.

    Hey there I have a bit of a strange question. My 91 g16a has a rebuilt motor, was rebuilt before I bought it. It's an 8v carby. I've gone to the timing and run into a bunch of strange issues, it seems to be half g16a and half g16b timing gear in there. I'm hoping to just replace the timing with all g16a parts, and I was wondering if you'd be able to tell me if your tensioner pulley was metal or a hard nylon type of plastic? I just can't tell from the video and it would be really helpful to know! Thanks so much!

    very similar, 16v have multiple marks on the cam cog though, I forget which one you use, google acks faq. he has a awesome page dedicated to trackers/sidekicks and has a great written walk through. other than the cam timing mark every thing else is the same
