That sounds like some pointless effort and the hard way to do it, air-cooled.
since you last personal response to me, which you went off-over-board on me, youve toned it down, how nice. your still Way to critical, your toned response, toned down as now as it is, isnt really substantial to my part of subject.
and its hardly pointless, and as long as you dont slip screwdriver off belt, and injure belt, its fairly easy,quick, maybe more than 1reverse turn of crank, well 2x in,, the case, anyways, and ive got good results doing it.
As I recall, in all of the interactions I've had with you, I've always been courteous and helpful when pointing out poor procedures or bad advice you have recommended. Also, as I recall, the only one acting out in an obnoxious way in any interaction between us has always been all you, friend. I'm just going to keep on giving helpful responses and good advice in an indifferent, courteous and intelligent manner regardless of how loudly you cry about your bruised ego or hurt feelings.
I see that you have no understanding about spelling, grammar, capitalization, or punctuation, but are you even using English? Disregarding the mechanical concepts and focusing just on the text itself, your posts are borderline illegible nonsense. If you put a bit more effort into actually expressing yourself well in text it would both help you get your point across and help anyone who happens to put in the effort of trying to read what you write. Regardless, I will do my best to decipher what you are trying to say in your last post...
for 1 if lets say you want to -zero- out dial gauge on injpump for timing, and you dont have belt removed, of you dont set dial with belt off, you need a helper;
Best I can tell, you are saying you need a helper to zero the dial indicator. Nope. I have zeroed out the dial indicator multiple times without issue and without any assistance from any helper. It's not even remotely challenging. I can't imagine what your issue is if you find it difficult to do solo.
2-any time ive put a new belt on, OR checked cam to crank timing i need a helper,
Sounds like you're saying you've needed a helper any time you have installed a belt or checked the cam timing. Sounds like a procedural issue to me. I've never needed or even wanted a helper for either. Turning the crank is hard and seeing the timing mark at the same time is hard for you? Are you disabled?
its also more difficult to get a belt centered all the way around, esp.with lower timing cover on.
Again, I've never had any difficulty at all in centering the belt on each sprocket/pulley. I can't even imagine what difficulty you might be having. Why would you leave the lower timing belt cover on when installing a timing belt? That's just comical. No wonder you find the whole procedure so hard when you take 'shortcuts' like that.
and even if you felt it was ok, ooh turn the crank a few times, and even in that case you may prefer an adjustment to belt tracking, and nows the time to do it.
Whenever you notice that the belt is not tracking correctly, that is the time to adjust it. Whenever I have removed and installed the pump bracket onto the block, I always check the tracking as soon as I can get the pump/belt on and prior to hooking anything else up. That minimizes the backtracking you need to do to make an adjustment. Otherwise, the new belt usually tracks the same as the old one. If the old one was tracking fine, the new one will too, 99% of the time.
To be clear, none of the 'pushing with a screwdriver' or 'rotating counterclockwise' or 'having your helper do this or do that' will have any lasting effect on the belt tracking. As soon as the engine is started, the belt will zoom right back to where it was tracking prior to any of those pointless gyrations.
If the belt tracking needs to be adjusted, it is most easily and most effectively done by adjusting the pump bracket in the manner I described previously. Other 'hack' ways of adjusting the tracking that I've heard recommended have been to add shims or bend brackets...
so a little more advice on it, for one only the first few teeth of cam gear can you get belt to easily move,center, then turn crank, rev, keep it centered, as it gets centered over the injpump, in reverse, keep coming back till that centered part of belt gets back over cam gear, this will eliminate some side stress that may bring belt back off track.
This last quote just seems like utter nonsense to me. Prior to tensioning the belt, push it to the center of each of the sprockets with your fingers, easy peasy. No other actions of rotating back and forth, or a helper pushing with a screwdriver are needed for centering the belt. Again, you're doing it the hard way.
