I have heard that when a belt breaks there is more to do than simply follow the manual to install new belt. My main question is: What needs to be done to align things back up to install belt correctly?

If too long of answer maybe a site that would help? Squelchwex Posts: 3, Reputation: 1. Jul 28, , AM. Re: 93 accord Hi there's a company called Haynes that do an idiot proof owners workshop manual for all types of car its easy to follow step by step instructions are great,don't tell everyone but in the trade we use it a lot you will find Haynes on the internet or there address is Haynes Publishing Sparkford Nr Yeovil Somerset BA22 7JJ England There is an American address but I don't know it sorry Hope this helps.

It is very important to line up the cam or cams and the crankshaft correctly when installing the new belt. Usually they are marked with a groove or hole that you line up with each other.

You can check by removing the 1 spark plug and turning the engine until the piston is at the top. The mark on the crankshaft should be at the top or the timing pointer. The intake valve cam lobe should be well past where it was open, and the exhaust valve not ready to open.

A good book will show this exactly plus have additional information most of us need. Frankly, the common Chilton manuals are entirely lacking the detail you may need, and I don't thing the Haynes are much better. I like the real shop manuals. New they are very expensive. You may be able to find a used one at www.

Many libraries have sets of manuals too, but usually the Chiltons. Jul 28, , PM. Thanks for the info. I did what you said and put timing belt on and started. I pulled spark plug wires one by one on all cylinders I assume this means the valve is shot on this cylinder and I need to either remove head and repair or pull engine and replace with used one.
