For a 2.4 L: Attach 13 mm wrench to pulley tension bolt (the pulley without the ridges), and push counterclockwise or toward the body of the car. For the 2.2 L, the Haynes manual lists 15 mm wrench in the opposite direction.

To fix the Pontiac Sunfire if it jumped time, the timing belt has to be replaced. Then the car has to have the timing set again after the belt is replaced.
No, it has a cam chain.
Refer to your owners manual, there will be a diagram there to show you the position of the belt, there should also be a diagram under the hood. Make sure you have a socket and flex bar to fit your idler pulley to relieve the tension to allow you to install belt properly. Good luck
In a 1995 Pontiac Sunfire : Both the 2.2 and the 2.3 litre four cylinder engines have a timing CHAIN
I am trying to change the belt on a 2.2 L, 96 Pontiac Sunfire. There is no adjustment on the alt. or power steering that I can see and I cant see how the tensioners work. Anyone have any ideas.
It must have a TIMING CHAIN because Gates ( they make timing belts etc . ) does not list a timing belt for the 2.2 liter or 2.4 liter engines in a 1996 Pontiac Sunfire
Highly doubtful.
do you have to lower or lift engine to take bolt off belt tentioner 2002 pontiac sunfire.
Take a look at the belt that's driving it when the ac is on.
All 2002 Sunfires, 2.2 and 2.4, had timing chains
Answerwater pump for a 98 sunfire is located with the timing belt can be a job. have to remove front of motor. enj. mount ect. More: Unless the 98 is much different from my 96, the water pump has nothing to do with the timing belt. Also, there is no need to remove an engine mount bolt.You should be able to loosen the belt tensioner enough to get the belt on and off the pump pulley.
