the slack in between the pulleys need to be taken up before tightening the tensioner so have someone applying pressure on the inlet pulley (anti-clockwise) to take up the slack and then you tighten the tensioner. | |

yeh... it may not look right when you do it... but when you rotate the engine a few times the marks should line up spot on... if they dont theres a problem... | |

So have the timing mark slightly up on the inlet cam | |

leave the tensioner off completely untill you have it around all the other pulleys... | |

Its all lined up until you go for the test turnover and the slack causes it to fall out of place | |

Anyone have any tips for doing the cambelt on the X16XE. Im doing it as the haynes says round the crank pulley tensioner water pump then up the other side round the cam pulleys just the trouble is I'm getting too much slack imbetween the two cam pulleys |
