timing belt sliding off after motor swap

Just did a motor swap from a D15B7 to a D15B2. Now the timing belt is slipping off away from the motor off the pulley. It actually wore a hole in the timing cover. I'm not sure if I did something wrong or what. Please help.

you forgot to put the big washer type thing back on before you put the cover, pulley, and bolt on

there are 2 of them... one on each side of the timing belt drive pulley the parts they say to install with the concave surface facing opposite of the belt ] [

you need those... they keep the belt in line.... as you have found out

 

^^^ that or t/b tensioner is not set.

 

interesting to note that on the mirages there is no washers to hold the belt, i wonder why it doesn't move? :shrug:

 

because the mirage is the greatest vehicle ever designed or manufactured in the history of EVAR!!!!!

 

Some of the water pump gears are grooved so it helps hold the belt on; maybe the mirage is like that?

 

Awesome, turbomirage w/nothing to add to the thread.

 

sorry girls i was just stating a comparison is all...

no grooves its the exact same setup.

 

lol, statement(s) still has no value.


fwiw: if i would have caught this thread earlier I would have said the same thin E did, probably would have used the same diagram...

 

Pfft, everyone knows that Hondas have VTEC power and it can blow the timing belt right off duh.

 

shit you're right, i forgot ^_^



should replace that belt too while you are in there
