Best Answer

The timing marks on the crank pulley are 2 little nicks about half the size of a pinhead about 1cm apart. The 'clockwise' one is the ignition timing mark. The one to it's left is TDC. To correctly fit timing belt, crank pulley should be at TDC on the compression stroke & 'E' & 'I' on the cam sprockets should be at 12 o'clock. It's that easy. But the camshafts can move on their own because of the valve spring pressure on the cam lobes, so make sure the camshafts don't move while your trying to fit the belt.

When to change the timing belt on a Mazda mx3?

The timing belt on the b6 & k8 motors should be changed every 60-80k miles depending on the wear of the belt. You can check the wear yourself by removing the valve cover on the b6 model where as the k8 is somewhat more difficult and will require removing the timing cover. If there are any nicks, frays, or cracks the belt should be replaced.

How do you know that your Mazda 323 is a 1.6 liter engine and a Dual Overhead Cam?

engine size is found on the engine, but all Mazda engines in the b and z family have the imprint of DOHC on the rocker-cover when they are dohc if you find an imprint of b6-XX-XX then you have a 1.6 and if dohc is found on the rockercover then it is a 1.6 dohc. if you see b8, then that is always a 1.8l SOHC engine

Is a Mazda Protege 1.6L DOHC an interference engine?

As far as I'm aware the engine is identical to that used in the MX5, so I'd assume yes it is an interference engine ^^Actually, the engines have the same displacement but that is the only similarity. The blocks are different, the transmissions are different and the heads are totally different. The mx5 engine is a B6 and the protege 1.6l is a ZM or ZM-DE depending on whether or not it is european. That being said, the protege 1.6l engine is non-interference, meaning that if your timing is off or your timing belt skips or breaks, the valves will not come into contact at any point with the pistons (there are 4 cut-aways in the piston heads to prevent any contact with the valves)


How high does a B6-2 model rocket engine fly?
