I need to find timing belt for 01 Lanos!

[lanos]

To start, today was a bad day. I was sitting @ a traffic light and my 2001 Daewoo Lanos Sport stalled out. It would not turn over and as I was pushing it out of the intersection I tried to pop start the clutch. It didn't work. I towed it home and have since removed everything to reveal that my timing belt is missing some teeth. It must have slipped the timing, stalling it out. I'm not sure if I install a timing belt and realign the timing this will fix the problem. I don't know if this would have caused the pistons to crash into the valves and I would need to replace the valves and rework the head. If anyone knows what may help it would be greatly appreciated. I figure I could start out with a timing belt and see if that fixes it, but am not sure where to get one.

99% of the time you'll have damaged valves. I say whip the head off to make sure before committing to anything.

Thanks for the reply
I ordered a timing belt for my Lanos. I am going to set the timing and check the compression before I remove the head just in case the valves are still good even though I've been hearing a lot that they are probably messed up. But I need to find the valves, lifters, and head gasket if they are messed up. I've found a local machine shop that will rework the head if I can get them the parts to do so. If anyone has any suggestions on where to find these parts, please let me know. thanks.

I've taken everything up to the cranshaft pulley off in my quest to remove the timing belt. I'm trying to remove the bolt holding on the crankshaft pulley but it rotates when I try to loosen it. I could put a screwdriver in the slot on the crankshaft and have it hit the oil pan but I'm afraid I will damage the oil pan using excessive power trying to loosen the bolt. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

[Big Jeff]

have you try putting it in gear, see if that helps

Best way to loosen this bolt is to use a impact wrench.
Or you can use the "starter method" (thanks MMamdouh ) but be very carefull doing this .

[daewoomofo]

your best bet is as Daniel said, use an impact run. only do the "starter" method if you absolutly must!

[lanos]

I appreciate the ideas. I managed to jam a wrench in the crankshaft and have it hit the frame instead of the oil pan and freed it. And the picture of the deer wasn't meant to be a joke it is hunting season in new york and I was celbrating with a pic of my buck. thanks anyways
