Neighbor has this VW deisel that he bought not running
right. He removed head and had valve job done. He asked me
for help lining up the timing belt. I looked at the
procedure in a few manuals,but still i am having problems.
The manuals say to lock cam using special tool,(no problem)
to set crank at tdc using mark on clutch,(no problem) to
line up marks on injection pump sprocket,pump bracket and
pump,(no problem). When these are aligned however i can not
lock sprocket with special tool. The hole in the sprocket
is not even close to lining up with the hole in bracket. I
don't know if the sprocket is the wrong one or if i am
missing something in the directions! Any help would be
appreciated! Thanx
