What causes a timing belt to fail on a Daewoo?
As a result, when the engine is cold the tension of the belt is too low, which means that during the warm up of the engine the belt will ‘flap’ in the drive. This can cause the pointer on the tensioner to make contact with the end stop and break, and result in the failure of the belt, which could also lead to major engine damage.
How do you set the cam timing on a 2001 Daewoo Matiz?
I would replace BOTH the timing belt and the drive belt at the same time, since both are very inexpensive, even from the Ford dealer. Line up both timing marks on both the cam and crank sprockets in the 12 o’clock position. The marks are very easy to see, once you remove the timing belt cover.
Can a timing belt be replaced at the wrong tension?
Unfortunately it is not uncommon for the replacement belt to be installed at the incorrect tension because although the technician may have gone through the right procedure, they have undertaken the process on a hot engine.
Where to place the belt on a Daewoo water pump?
Keep all the belt tension on the right side away from the tensioner. Loosen the bolts in the water pump and rotate the water pump counterclockwise to apply tension to the belt. Watch the tensioner, which is above the water pump, and apply tension with the water pump until the pointer on the tensioner lines up with the notch above it.
