TUD5 timing belt

[spider]

Saxo 1.5D / 106 1.5D

Having seen one changed ages ago without undoing the vernier's on the cam / pump pulleys, what's the 'correct' procedure for these please ?

To be fair, the one that was done 'XUD' style as it were , is still running 40K later so it could not of been too bad to ignore them, (I suppose you could say the same for the DW8 as I think this has these 'vernier' pulleys too, but I am not sure, not really had chance to see one yet)

I have not seen a TUD5 (not 1.4, lets not go on about that unit, its not very nice) guide floating around anywhere, which is a surprise actually.

cant remember how to change the cam belt,

but i do have a brand new OE old stock TUD5 lump still on the pallet it came from the factory on, this is not a re/coned unit and it is for sale at the right price

The Saxo engine's belt is the easiest I've done. No crankshaft bolt to undo. Just the four small bolts to remove the pulley. Line up the hole in the flywheel and insert an 8mm bolt through the camshaft sprocket and pump sprocket. Note the holes are elongated. When fitting the belt the two sprockets should be turned fully clockwise to the end of the holes. Start fitting from the crankshaft and turn the injection pump anti-clockwise by only one tooth to enable the belt to seat properly.

You'll need a square section to adjust the tensioner. The sprocket pulley bolts should just be hand tight as you tension the belt.

Thanks John. That's what caught my mind, the sprockets were 'adjustable' (for want of a better word) compared to the XUD's...
