i have a 94 civic cx. all stock. i think my timing belt jump a tooth, i want to know how can i tell if it jump or not by looking at it?? thanks.

 

Turn the motor over until the white mark on the crank pulley lines up with the mark on the lower timing cover. Then remove the upper timing cover and check to see if the upper marks are lined up. If any of the marks are off you know that it jumped.

 

sucks if it did.

 

my mark color on my crank pully are faded out. i see 5 lines. l l l l l. in the sets of 3 lines, the middle line is RED.

 

it'll run like complete **** and the timing will be way off. But as stated before make sure the marks on the crank line up and the 2 lines on the cam gear are parallel to the head

 

i have 5 lines, do i line up the crank pully's middle line of the 3 sets? (same line i lined up when i do my timing?)

 

bump

 

check to see if number1 piston is at tdc with#1 at top you will see if crank lines up with cam
