You need special tools to lock cams and crank
The Renault Clio, year 2002, has a timing belt. I believe some have timing chains but i ain't sure which.
In a Renault Clio 1.2, the timing marks are located on the camshaft and crankshaft pulleys. The crankshaft timing mark is typically found on the pulley or harmonic balancer, while the camshaft mark is usually on the camshaft sprocket. When aligning the timing, ensure that the marks are in line with the reference points on the engine block or timing cover. Always consult the vehicle's service manual for specific details and diagrams relevant to your model year.
On the Renault Clio 1.4 RT, the timing marks can typically be found on the crankshaft pulley and the timing cover. The crankshaft pulley usually has a notch or a line that aligns with a mark on the engine block to indicate the top dead center (TDC). Additionally, the camshaft pulley will have its own timing mark that must align with a corresponding mark on the engine when setting the timing. Always refer to the vehicle's service manual for precise locations and procedures.
There are no timing marks on a 1.5DCI Clio 51Reg. Instead, a timing pin kit needs to be used to properly set the belt on this engine.

To set the valve timing for a Renault Clio 1.4 16V, first ensure the engine is at Top Dead Center (TDC) on the compression stroke for cylinder one. Align the camshaft and crankshaft timing marks according to the service manual specifications, typically using the timing belt or chain marks. After setting the timing, double-check the alignment before reassembling any components. Finally, rotate the engine manually to ensure there are no obstructions and that everything is functioning correctly before starting the engine.
A timing belt setting diagram for the 2000 Renault Clio can be obtained through various websites such as "DIY","Fixya" and "automotive forums". You can also have one mailed to you by contacting the manufacturer.
