Installing the timing belt
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Volvo C70, 2001 Volvo C70, 2000 Volvo C70, 1999 Volvo C70, and 1998 Volvo C70. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Variable valve timing units do not have return springs and are easily thrown out of position when the camshaft belt is installed. Check that the markings align.
Install the belt in the following order:
- the idler pulley
- intake cam
- exhaust cam
- water pump
- tension pulley.
