HELP Balance Shaft Timing Belt

[TD05]

I'm stuck I'm (trying) installing a new balance shaft timing belt, but Ican't see the timing mark on the block, i'm talking about the little cog to the left of the water pump, acording to the diag it's just under it, but I can't see it...
is it there??? help..

it should have a small triangle on the cog..

Maybe you need to clean it up a bit it could be covered with dirt.

I can't squeeze it in There!!!!!, it does not fit between the block and the edge of the crank sprocket, ???, and it's the same size as the original so it's not that, How do they get this thing in there now, I am ready to leave out this thing, the vibration wasn't that bad after ll.




Thanks Cookie, I can see the triangle on the small cog, but I can't see the reference on the block, I've cleaned it,

could it be the diag on top/left is correct, because that's all I can see, also is there a trick getting the new belt around the crank sprocket?? it's awfully tight in there..

To get the belt around the crank sprocket you have to take the crank bolt of and remove the cover plate.
you should be able to slip the belt on easy after that.

Thank you Xentro, it's always the missing bit of info that stops ya, you're a legend, one last thing, to take that bolt off, do I just put her into low gear and stick a 19mm socket in and turn???

thanx again....
Cheers

Well the easiest way is to use some impact airtool.

But you can also try putting the car in 5th with the handbrake on.

I had my oil pan off so i could just stick wrench in between the crank to stop it from turning.
