Want this question answered?
Your question is a little vague but I think I understand what you are asking. There are white marks on the edge of the timing belt and white marks on the pulleys. Align those and you are all set.
Timing is done by Engine computer with imfo from cam and crank sensor . It is not adjustable. If you are replacing timing belt, a Gates timing belt comes with detailed instructions of belt and pulley timing marks. New belt has marks on it that correspond with cam shaft pulleys and crank pulley.
You don't "set" a timing belt. There is no adjustment, either it's right or it's not. You change a timing belt at whatever interval Subaru recommends for your Forester. --Ken
Timing is set by the ECU.
It should bethe same as a 1997 and there will be no way to adjust the timing as it is an electronic ignition. If you are changing the timing belt and looking for the top dead center marks (TDC) That is a different matter...
By drive belt; I assume you mean a timing belt. On a 3.0 H-6, there is a timing chain in place of the belt (Very durable). It is housed behind cast aluminum timing chain covers on the front of the engine. On an engine with a timing belt, I would do the change myself; but I recommend that a timing chain be replaced by a Subaru dealer simply for the fact that the tension, alignment, and timing can be hard to set yourself with a chain.
The short answer is yes.
Yes the timing can be set.
Hoo I set the correct timing on a 1993 mazda protege
you cannot adjust the ignition timing on this car. a manual will help if you need to set cam timing
Press and Hold the display DISP button and then press tune button for hour and minute
NO. A timing light will not work on that engine. You must have an obdII engine scanner to set the timing on that year.
