My timing belt cost me $28 AUD :P

I have just gone through all this with my 1.5 SOHC lanos. Because i was impatient to get my head off to take to the machine shop i cut my timing belt. So i didn't have the option of cranking the car over to take off the crank pulley. The only way i could get it off was getting my mate over and getti...

Does anyone know where i can get the timing belt adjuster tool from? Only price i got was $210 AUD and i may aswell pay a company to take the head off and reinstall it for me for $300. Any help guys would be great. Thanks

thanks for that. I am surprised that the head is so little torqued like compared to the crank pulley. I will try and take photo's on the weekend and create a step by step guide for removing the head on a 1.5 sohc.


Cheers,

I downloaded the manual but i am not sure what exactly are the torque settings or how to read it. It says Cylinder head bolts (Camshaft Support Housing & cylinder Head Mounting Bolts) NSm Lb-Ft Lb-In 25 18 +60_ +60_ +60_ +60_ - +60_ +10_ +60_ +10_ The measurement I would like to use on my torque wre...

I was just wondering does anyonw know the torque settings for the 1.5 lanos sohc. Also if anyone has a step by step guide for removal it would help, otherwise i will just attempt it myself. But i need to know the torque settings.

Cheers,

it looks like the exhaust headers my mate used to have on his series 1 mazda rx7. Its tuned length extractors. Heaps better flow.

yeh i replaced my door speakers with 6" alpine type r, and installed two alpine type r 6x9's in the rear parcel shelf aswell as having an alpine mp3 head unit. sounds mint. sounds like i have a sub in the boot with my 6x9's which is awesome. all i need now is better insulation for the doors to stop ...

mine sounds noisy too. maybe i should change mine. My car is currently @ 84,XXXkm's. Tim, how much did your water pump and seal set you back?

Ok. I thought you guys were smart. lol i guess not. I pulled the leads off the spark plugs one at a time with rubber insulated multigrips and i was wearing rubber gloves. Don't kill yaself guys.

Lucky i didnt electricute myself when i was pulling the plugs off one by one testing to see which one doesnt work. anyways now i need a new coil. Tom can you please p...

I have changed all four spark plugs when this problem arose. As i had said in previous post. When i pulled out the spark plugs that were in the car and only about 2,000km old they were black :/ but my car doesnt blow any smoke. So my thought is i have a nackered coil pack. Hopefully i can get some M...
