[jason forsythe]

hi all when changing my belt i forgot to use the 8mm nuts so the timing went to cock but i reset the cams with the bolts and set the crank to tdc using the nipple and pointer method and reset the belt so all in time ,but is this all i have to do?

Errr, me thinks that you may have posted this in the wrong section. What vehicle and engine are we talking about here?

Nope, in the right section.

Our Australian delivered 4JB1t engines (Came out in this country in the Holden Rodeo utility) have no timing belts, only gear drive and OHV. I have heard of the 4JB2T 3.2 engines with or without belts but I'm not familiar with any 2.8 with a belt. Some C223T 2.8 engines had belts I believe, but I never got to see one like that.

Any pics?

(Edit; just googled and found a 4jb1TC engine with belt; TC = turbo intercooled. Not avail in Australia AFAIK)
