need help with broken timing belt 01 solara
The timing belt broke on my wifes 01 solara 2.2L Auto (5S-FE Engine) and I have been following the write up by Trioxide1
http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/1...ment-w-pictures.html#/topics/428257?_k=ngefea
on how to change the timing belt and I have replaced the oil pump oring and seal, water pump crankshaft seal and camshaft seal. I still need to install the tensioner, idler pulley and the belt. but before I do all of that how do I determine if the engine is at #1TDC compression vs exhaust and how do I set the camshaft to be in time to the crankshaft. I know about the timing marks but am unsure how to determine tdc and how to ensure the camshaft is set correctly.
If anyone knows of a write or is willing to walk me thru it I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
Travis

according to Toyota my 01 is a non-interference motor otherwise I would not even attempt this repair.
Normally I do not mess with timing belts but we were quoted $600 for labor with us providing the parts I decided to try it myself.
I am hoping that with the write ups that I have read and printed and the advice here I can finish this repair and get the wifes car back on the road.

I am replacing all of the seals and o-rings and the water pump. I had to stop yesterday and go to tractor supply to get a couple washers and nut to use to push the camshaft seal back in.
I am reading the post you mentioned now...unfortunately the firewall here at work will not let the pics show for some reason.

Thats only a problem if you have a distributor.
I did not know that thanks for the information. This is the first non-interference motor I have ever owned.
Thanks again everyone for your help.

I am now having trouble getting the timing marks to align at 0. When i get to about 5 before tdc it gets hard to turn the crank and when it does turn it zips right past 0. I have removed the spark plugs but that does not seem to help. Any suggestions?
Thanks

I added about a tablespoon ok oil to each cylinder and it made a huge difference
Ok this is where I am at now
After many after attempts I managed to get the timing belt on and lined up afte I rotated it twice. rotated 2 more time and it lined up again decided to go for 3 times is the charm rotated two more times and everything lined up again...happy dance.
reinstalled everything replaced the spark plugs
and it still wont start.
did a compression test on cylinders 1 & 3 and have 170psi on each then got rained out.
still have and oil leak, more than likely it is the oil pump oring that I had trouble getting to stay in place even with the grease method. I will repelace that if I can get it to start.
I will check for spark and the compression on cylinders 2 & 4 tomorrow evening after work weather permitting.
if any body has a suggestion what to check next please let me know
Thanks

Yes the crankshaft sensor was reinstalled and connected
I did align the camshaft with the V notch.
This is why I do not normallt do timing belts. Lol
I will dbl check that the sensor is plugged in tomorrow after work

Ok. I did a compression test and all cylinders are between 160 & 170 psi
When this started I had spark but I do not have spark now
I have checked the fuses that according to owners manual would have anything to do with generating spark and they are all good
What else do I need to check?

I am such a freakin idiot. The crank sensor had come unplugged and as soon as i plugged it in it started right up
I do have a serious oil leak and as much trouble as I had getting the oil pump o-ring to stay in place I am going to bet that it slipped when I was putting the oil pump back on so it all comes apart again tonight.
I will try putting grease in the slot for it

I ended up using a little grease to hold it in place and got everything back together last night with no leaks.
Needless to say the wife is happy to have her car back
