Great camera dedication dude you're a master mechanic dude I've been doing it 20 years I've had my Honda since I got it in 04 and it finally started overheating 180,000 miles I've been throwing thermostats at it now it's water pump time thank you

Great job. Perfect camera views and he goes over all the small pointers. Thumbs up bro

[@mr.haskell3059]

First of all : thanks for the video. I found that starting the belt from the bottom and working up is much easier than the method you used. Also, and more importantly, I thought I heard you say to torque the tensioner to 7 ft lbs. @ 48:50 of the video. Honda service manual says 33 ft lbs. Last time I did mine I torqued it up to 27 ft lbs. before the threads started to strip. Honda makes a 1/4" longer bolt to replace the original bolt because of this well known problem. Where did you get the 7 ft lbs? Did Honda come out with this because of the thread stripping problem?

Thank you very much ,I was able to complete this job using this video.

Did you ever put back the crank case pulley? All you did was go straight to the upper bracket after you put the lower case plastic cover.

Not a job for even a good DIY guy, this is a mechanics job.... You could make a right balls of this...

[@charleslambert145]

Check bolt protrusion on tensioner bolt- 15mm is correct spec, install loosely with spring in hook up at stud, rotate crank 2 turns counter clockwise- THEN torque to 33 lb/ft with blue loctite & pull pin.. Theres a procedure & its not as shown. 7 lb/ft will cause bolt to back out threads to get torn up & you'll be in for an expensive fix.

+Marco Blancovich We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c

Video clarity is great, lighting was mediocre. You have several shots where you hide or neglect to show what you're talking about. You can always infer of course, but the great videos have visuals of minor details. Thank you for taking the time! Overall, a very instructional video!

[@gonzalomacedo8458]

Nice job and good explanation thank keep it up

Do you have to replace timimg belt cover gasket

[@izzro81]

I noticed slack on the side that should be tight, how did you get that out after putting it on?

فيديو تعليمي رائع

[@joshcantrell8397]

I just did head gasket and timing chain. And forgot to tighten my crank shift position sensor. And had to take nearly everything off just to tighten that little bolt up again lol

[@carlosdenevier9538]

you are NOT supposed to pull the tensioner pin out of the pulley and THEN loosen it and tighten it again. work from left to right, pulley, tighten everything and then pull the pin. the pulley puts then tension to the belt. the right tension!

[@Capt1njohnx]

Great Video. I just followed your every step and got as far as reinstalling the alternator and when you said go ahead and put your alternator belt on, I found there was no crank pully to put it on to. You dont explain how to put the harmonic balancer back on and tighten it back up. As it turns out I found another video where the mechanic explained how to make sure you put the key back in and then not to tighten the bolt with an impact but to tighten up the the harmonic balancer crankshaft bolt to 14.5 foot lbs. and then use your Honda harmonic balancer holder tool to lock the crankshaft while you use a breaker bar with a cheater on it to rotate the crankshaft bolt 90 degrees. No final torque spec to tighten, just rotate 90 degrees after initially torquing bolt to 14.5ft lbs. (19.6Nm). Would have been nice to see how you did it. Other than that and the 7ft lbs comment on the timing belt tensioner it was a great video.

How much would this cost to do?

[@shanedawson-xt3wt]

Shouldn’t you turn it counterclockwise??? It’s a interference engine and it spins counterclockwise. So when you line up the notches shouldn’t you turn it counterclockwise??? Doesn’t turning it clockwise possible damage the engine?? I see so many say turn it counterclockwise but I still see videos (like this one) that show people turn it clockwise? Highly confused here?? Thank?

[@mr.haskell3059]

Yes go counter clockwise. You are right, the engine spins counter clockwise. Spinning clockwise shouldn't hurt the engine but you want the tension on the correct side of the belt before you pull the tensioner pin. So going counter clockwise serves two purposes, 1. That the alignment/ timing is correct and 2. The tension is on the correct side of the belt before torging the tensioner and pulling the pin. Hope this helps.

Is the crank bolt right hand or left hand? 2005 Honda civic .

[@joshcantrell8397]

Did I miss the part where he reinstalled the crankshaft pulley???

[@RafaelGomez-bd5hw]

I heard you was supposed to put all your timing marks right and tighten everything give it two revolution turns to the right make sure marking matches up

[@alexanderstefanxandraswedi5835]

Good job sharing

[@ownedpatrol]

Is this possible without the hex key tool?

[@beardedgaming1337]

On mine when I tighten down my tensioner. The bolt spins the entire tensioner. So I can't get it torqued down without turning everything else around it.

[@jegsdinogod5091]

What's the hex key tool I need to take off the belt wheel?

[@angelflores2334]

It’s a special Honda tool you can get at any auto part store

[@thomass2055]

D17a1 is very finicky about timing

[@shanehedgepath4636]

Umm those Honda colent is blue why is that green

[@mitchellmoreland2706]

bruh turn the crank the right way
