HELP 7age problem no start!!!

[Ivan141]

I have no idea how the 7age guys adjust their cams, and I havent seen hero round here for a while. What I would do is to set the campulleys to the approximate position they need to be in (you can find this in the manual, which you can download from the aeu86.org homepage). Then grab an old 4age timing belt that still has the indication stripes on the back, and count the number of teeth between the 2 stripes that are nearest to eachother. Then draw 2 lines on the porsche belt with the exact same number of teeth between them and use these to properly adjust the campulleys.

After that it's a matter of setting the crank to TDC, keeping the campulleys in the right place and installing the belt (making sure it's tight on the side without the tensioner). Now when you fasten the tensioner, look if everything is where it's supposed to be, and draw a line on the back of the timing belt at the adjustment mark on the crank pulley.
Finally, make a note of the distances (nr of teeth) between the lines you drew, and post it in a 7AGE thread here so future generations will benefit from your work

Hope that helped, if anyone knows a simpler method that will make me look stupid, please share.
