I was driving at about 25 to 30 mph practically out of my driveway and my water pump's pulley decided to roll off. My B16a continued to run for a few seconds meanwhile I was staring at the pulley rolling perfectly parallel to my car. To make a long story short, I've purchased a water pump, timing belt, and tensioner and hope to install them my myself. I've got a few manuals for an Si B16A, but they only show replacement; none of the directions show me how to realign the cams and crank feasibly. Does anyone have a walkthrough for realigning the valve train and crank/installing a timing belt? The cams do not turn freely.


It is originally an OBD-0 motor which has been fitted in an OBD-2a chassis using an OBD-1 ECU. Will the replacement parts I've ordered for a 94' Del Sol VTEC work? Which alternator belt do I use? I've tried an Si belt and Del Sol VTEC belt to no avail. Which haynes manual should I buy?

Sorry for the double post, but 92-00 is down for maintenance.

 

You should be able to download the CRX workshop manual VTEC supplement to get the proper procedure for that motor. Follow the link in the FAQ or just Google it.

 

How did the pully come through the cover, is the cover on

 

I've seen it before, my friends car it came off while going down the highway. It cut a perfect hole out the timing cover and disappeared.
