99 Accord 3.0 Timing Belt ?
I'm in the process of changing my g/f's timing belt. I went to line up the marks on the crank and cams and there wasn't any noticable marks on the rear bank cam gear. The front bank has a mark for each cylinder. Come too find out, the rear bank has one mark but it was in the 6 o'clock position when I originally took the belt off. Anyone how to accurately set that gear?
Ok I figured out that I didn't have the motor at TDC on the compression stroke but on the exhaust. That's why the mark on the bank was at 6 o'clock and not 12 o'clock. But I have everything properly lined up on the exhaust TDC and the crank still won't turn.
did you disconnected any electricals? thats what happened to me when i lined everything up at TDC only to realize i unplug one of the electricals running along the timing belt cover. i plugged it in and the car started normally. otherwise, the engine would only crank but would not turn.
