Yeh , I own both a Lanos and Leganza, The leganzas timing is actually set on the tensioner itself the water pump gets locked into a fixed position. Yes, I am using the service manual, I try to be as meticulous as possible in terms of following it to the T. Probably more than I should be I just can't...

So I got the timing belt on yet I am having the same problem as the guy below. The Pointer moves after its been aligned and the bolt is been tightened. THe difference from the lanos is the tensioner has its own key that you turn in order to align the pointer much easier than the lanos, and then you ...

So I took the advice of an old mechanic and he said to use ATF fluid and let it sit and then slowly press on the cylinders until they move then coat them and repeat, so i got them moving and thier appears to be no cylinder wall scoring and they are in good shape. I cleaned them all out and swabbed t...

Well I went ahead and put the mix in I'll let it sit for a while and see what happens. Now let me ask a dumb question, why would it matter if the car was in park or not? It's an automatic, the transmission was in neutral and the parking brake was off when I did it, just trying to figure out why that...

Thanks for the help guys I think I will take the oil pan off, and try the mixture tommorrow. As for why it sat I bought from a guy who snapped the timing belt and didn't want to pay to get it fixed so he bought a new car and just never got rid of it.

Well I talked to my mechanic he seemed to think it was ok, so i went ahead and ordered everything, the parts look fine we shall see i guess. Thanks for the help.

So I tried to get the crankshaft to turn by putting a breaker bar on the outside pulley bolt and got nothing. Am I screwed as in something is seized up, it's been sitting for 2 y...

So I did a little bit more research to get that stuff from a Isuzu dealer would be around 600 dollars. Still too much I found a place where I can get a GATES timing belt for 30 bucks, Then I figured I could swap it out with the ebay kit. I'm still not sure about the head gasket kit, I think I could ...

So I've been searching for a while and have been unable to find an answer to my questions. I have a 1999 Daewoo Leganza Sx from which the timing belt broke. I have ordered a new head but need some help on some other parts. I went to my dealer and for the parts timing belt water pump pulleys and gask...
