89 xt6 timing belts


Recommended Posts

i'm wondering what the timing procedure is for an er27. i know it's basically an ea82, but i'm assuming the timing procedure might be different. problem is i'm in alaska, and the person who is working on the car is in oregon and has no experience with the motor. was wondering if anyone has step by step instructions on how to install the timing belts and ditsy. any help would be amazing!!! i just want the suspension for my gl-10!:burnout:

The crank rotations, cam timing, and disty timing is same as ea82.

 

The tensioner, however, is different. You have to turn a slot on the bottom to install the belt.

 

The only thing different is firing order being 6 cylinders. The front 4 cylinders rotate the same as ea82. As long as you know #1 on the cap.

 

search the internet for 'subaru maintenance' or ea82 timing belt' and you will find helpful videos.
