Yes
accuauly its the cam that does control valve timeing.. on the lobes of the cam .
there is no " timing belt " sensor, but there are 2 sensors that control the timing. One is the crankshaft sensor and the other one is the camshaft sensor.
The 3.0 is a Mitsubishi and it uses a toothed belt for valve timing.
Its has a timing belt (2.0l 16 valve dual cam ) and a timing chain in rear of camshaft.
when to chang timing belt on peugeot 407 hdi 1.6
The Cummins diesel does not have a timing belt.
Just really want to know the timing belt settings please?
if the timing belt becomes streched, it changes the relationship between the camshaft and crankshaft. Which will in turn effect the valve timing and engine performance. That is why many engines use automatic tensioners to prevent this from happening
It is a over head valve engine with a timing chain.
No it will not start and if the timing belt has jumped you can severly damage the valve train in your engine by attempting to start it. The whole purpose of the timing belt is to make sure the valves open at the correct time during piston travel. Therefore if the timing belt has slipped your timing is going to be off by more than a couple of degrees and the piston is going to slam into the valve and bend the valve stem.
you have a problem with you timing belt or chain
Yes it does.
A 2000 Mazda Protege with 1.8 DOHC engine appears to be a "free-running" engine, meaning there is no valve/piston interference in case the timing belt broke. There is enough clearance between the valve and piston, even if the cam stops (i.e. the timing belt breaks) with the valve fully open. Therefore, the car will not be damaged if the timing belt broke.
