Thank you Sir! This helped reassure me that I did everything correctly on the exact job. I had to replace the vvt sprocket so I put new timing chain kit at same time along with new water pump. 128,000 miles. Rattle at cold startup due to faulty vvt. You are a great mechanic and good at explaining. Bless you!
I guess im asking the wrong place but does anybody know of a method to log back into an instagram account?
I was stupid lost the password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me
@Raiden Maurice instablaster :)
@Enoch Josiah I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process atm.
Takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Enoch Josiah it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my ass :D
@Raiden Maurice Glad I could help xD
Thank you, now I can install the timing in full confidence
Ive watched many of your videos, and everything was explained very well . That tells me that you know what your doing , experience is the key factor here .
You have instagram?
We could share texts and videos there!...
Now im working on a video of the process on doing one of this videos
@@GeneralMechanicGA No sir i dont have Instagram, but i can talk with you on regular text messages....
I need you help please.

Thank you for sharing! Having this job today.
yeah this is the easy part. try taking the crank bolt off !!!!! or the cam actuator bolt off !!! make sure if you don't have an high impact gun you get yourself a honda crank tool to hold the pulley in place while you loosen this bolt. also get yourself a 2ft 1/2 extension with a 2 ft 1/2 breaker bar and hopefully maybe!! you might be able to loosen this nut !! I had to actually slip a solid steel bar over the breaker bar so there wasn't so much flex on the breaker bar and finally it came loose with a loud pop!! as for loosen the cam actuator bolt. grab yourself a 24mm long wrench to hold the cam while you use your breaker bar to loosen this nut. if you have a partner around I highly recommend they help you with this. if your car has a sway bar you can rest the wrench against it. don't even attempt this job if you don't have any of these tools or you will find yourself in a pickle without a car trying to go out and get the right parts for the job like I did !!!
Fantastic video, thank you for the great explanation! Need to check timing problem on my 2006 CRV and I think it will be the same.

I have the same car and got a p0008 code engine position system bank 1 would that mean I need to do this or is it just the camshaft sensor
Thanks good video
You can also lock the cams in place there is a hole on the rear end of the cams a small drill bit will work it slides through the holes into the bearing cap
Hi I bought a car recently it has the Same problem. Can I send you video for clarification?
I just started to work on my car I installed a k&n air intake and changed the spark plugs but now I have a leak on my power steering pump and I’m thinking I might as well change the timing chain while I’m at it ? What do you think ? I would be getting the timing chain kit , power steering pump , and a new serpentine belt with water pump ?
Wow
Yeah it will be good not just for your car but for your pocket too!
When that thing go bad it hurts!!!
If you can afford it do it!

Can you align the timing chain without taking off the cover because of a jumped timing??
Awesome video! Great camera angles! Did you have to unlock the vtc actuator on the intake cam to set the the timing or leave it locked?
Leave in place would reset it self!
Remember most of time will be the tensioner that failed so will be ok!
Thanks for taking the time to watch!!
Perfect video. Only one question: how did you hold the camshafts in position or prevent their or exhaust shaft alone from inadvertent rotation?
Well imma tell you that for me both of camshafts align really good to place when installing new chain
Not too much struggle to get them in place cause when setting the time they are pretty much on place and they stay there long enough for you to install the tensioner!
I just finished doing a valve job on a 2008 accord with the 2.4 .
The best way i found to keep the camshafts in perfect location is to insert the camshaft alignment pins , which you can purchase from Honda .
Both camshafts have a small hole on the opposite end of the sprockets , and the number 5 camshaft cap / holder has the same size hole .
I used 2 small Roll Pins that fit the holes really well .
Once you get the pins installed then you can torque the cam caps to specs . With the pins installed both camshafts will be in the correct position and you can install the chain ....
NOTE "!" After you install the chain & tensioner , remove the little pin frome the tensioner to release it , AND don't forget to remove the 2. camshaft holding pins "!"
I have a 2010 Acura TSX. Will this be the same procedure?
Thanks!
Great video, now I feel confident in doing my own timing chain..

Same here
Thanks for the video, I wanted to know if in these engines the piston bends valves if the timing chain breaks? Thanks for answering.
According to my knowledge n book yes this is an interference engine
@@GeneralMechanicGA Thanks.
I wonder how many mile were on it when the tensioner went south?
Nice video, but what about the lower chain, does that not have any marks or is it just an oil pump?
sweet...thxs bro
No problem 👍
08 honda accord cranks but not start it send a code to the crans position senssor but i replace it with new senssor but still not start .. cranks but not start ..do you think is same problem timing chain streched .. cus i was late over oil changes .. do you think is the streched timing chain?
I seen the starter cause this lots of times
Good job 👍🏽, can this work also for 2007 2.4 accord? I don’t see that many vid of my year vehicle 🚗 I don’t know why🤔. Anyways thanks 🙏🏼
Yes the 07 year is same as the one on the video
Good luck
Did you change any the sprockets or just the chain and tensioner. Or?
Just chain and tensioner.
thank you sir

Are these alignment marks apply to all Honda makes and models ?
No!
This is for a 2.4 honda
excellent

Can this cause metal shavings in oil pan
Do you have to drain the motor oil and antifreeze?
And remove the oil pan?
Any way you want to
Just clean it up neatly before assembling!
Remember you taking the pan out so nothing will stay there
My issue is that my top two timing marks match up with the yellow links, but my bottom crank mark doesn't line up with the gold chain link, it's about 2 tooth off. However, I put the chain on and installed the tensioner, I cranked it one revolution and all the marks lined up. My question is, does it really matter if your gold chain links do not align, as long as everything aligns back to TDC?
Ruben rios I had the same problem, did you get and answer ?
My timing was off after i put the new tensioner on and it deployed all the way so can I push it back and still use it? I got it backed off but do you think is it bad now that it opened up all the way?
No as long as is a new one and you can lock it again
You can reuse it
@@GeneralMechanicGA so I drove on it for about 3k and was making nock noise just during the start so I had to replace the vtec sprocket during g that the chain jumped and then the tensioner opened up all the way
Can you do my timing belt I'm looking for someone to do that kind of work on my car
Hello can you tell me if it is the same for 2003 honda accord 4 cylinder
The engine size is the same should be really close to the one on my video!
I could send you a diagram if needed just have to attach your email or phone but
Should be almost the same on timing marks!
Thanks for taking the time to watch!
its same I have 2003 accord
Hi bro. Do you know the nut size on the cam shaft perhaps? Thanks
The ones for the sprocket?
@@GeneralMechanicGA yes
Legend Thank you, do you have a formula on how to remove crank bolt w without honda crank 50mm tool
Well all i can tell you is that a good impact wrench is good enough to break that bolt loose
I just to have big headache on this bolt but I finally got me a 3/4 air gun and its all it takes to get it loose!
Lisle makes a good 19mm socket for it. Adds more force and disunity distributes it better
I had to heat it up with hand held propane torch and take flywheel cover off under car to access torque converter bolts. By using a pry bar there to hold the crank I used 6 foot breaker bar to remove bolt. It came loose after heating it up. I began to think maybe it was left hand thread but it’s not.... it required a lot of force! Definitely a 2 person job unless you have a very strong impact as “general mechanic “ wrote. Wow, 3/4 inch yep I need one of those!
P.S. the cover I mentioned above is in between engine oil pan and transmission. It is fastened only with 2 10mm bolts. Thin metal shield-cover. Very easy to remove the metal access cover but requires taking off the entire engine plastic splash shield behind bumper cover and from side to side, in order to get to bottom of motor and transmission. There is a lot of plastic keeper snaps holding the splash shield. Hope this explanation helps someone. Good luck!
You're all wrong. Powerbar was the only thing that worked, not even snap on tools got it. Thnx
Good day , I’m trying to do this but once I set the chain between the links the marks on the cam shaft don’t line up
Are u using a nee chain?
They should be almost perfect
Remember chain is not adjustable so make sure is close enough to call it done!
That help to the noise of vtc actuator
Thats right!
Thanks for taking the time to watch!
How?
How many miles this card had when you did this ?
Thanks for taking the time to watch
If im not wrong that one had around 210k
Honda CR-V 2.0 did a head gaskets but I just removed the head I just took it apart con you please tell me how to put it back together please?
What you need info on?
I never did lift the first piston I just o took it apart and like I said I didn't lift the first piston I just took it apart and can you please help me how to put it back together , I took the head to get shaved everything else is ok please please help me please?
When I put the head on the Honda CR-V I won't to bend the rods please please help me that's my only car ?
at what mileage did the belt tensioner fail?
This one had 120k
How do you replace the oil pump chain & tensioner ? 2008 honda accord .
+Sho Bud sorry not a video on that but will try to cover it on one soon!
Thanks for taking the time to watch !
I have question when align all the marks top and bottom and you turn crankshaft a couple of times timing chain marks align again
No
It will be long time before they come to right spot again!
Because I was putting all timing chain marks top and bottom and I was thinking after you turn the crankshaft a bunch of times they supposed to align again.
There might be chances for that to happen but I had never seen it happen

I was putting all my chain gold links on the marks top and bottom and I was turning crankshaft to get them to align again they never did. so after you align marks top and bottom that it
i have a 09 2.4 accord and i fixed this problem, replaced the cam shaft and tensioner but didnt replace the chain since i was told that there was no need . the rattling noise of the cold start went away thankfully but the p0011 engine code keeps coming back and some times the vsa light comes on shortly after starting to drive but when i turn off and turn the car back on it goes away and sometimes it dosent come on at all or comes on after a while when driving any ideas?
Low or Dirty Engine Oil
Valve Timing Control (VTC) open or shorted circuit.
Valve Timing Control (VTC) electrical connector
Faulty Valve Timing Control (VTC)
This are some of the causes for p0011 on your car
Must likely a dirty vvt filter or bad actuator
@@GeneralMechanicGA thank you that helps alot already replaced the actuator and same result but im going to try to clean the filter next thanks again god bless
How many miles on the clock tho???😊
Do u have a shop so i can bring my car to u?
Macon Ga
At what miles should you reply the timing chain in the 4cyl? Some don't replace them at all
Some people don’t do it at all!
But I think manufacturers recommend to do it at around 100k miles
@@GeneralMechanicGA True, I need to do mines. I have 160k on miles and don't want to push my luck. How many hours does it take for a good mechanic to do it?
You use the OEM kit or aftermarket timing chain?
Mmm I would say a good mechanic will have it done in a day after all done and tested!
@@GeneralMechanicGA Ok , nice
Please what is the problem?
How did you learn that? Is there an annoying sound when the engine is turned on in the morning
*************
My friend,
It is a faulty VTC Actuator.
Needs to be replaced.
Wat if u get po341 after swapping chain
A code P0341 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
Cam sensor wiring routed too close to spark plug wiring (causing interference)
Poor wiring connection at cam sensor
Poor wiring connection at PCM Bad cam sensor
Damaged reluctor wheel
Thank you for watching!
how do I bring the marks together for camshaft and the exhaust can you tell me please
Are you talking about the marks on camshafts sprockets?
They have a line each that the got to face each other in between of them!
Thanks for taking the time to watch!
Hey general mechanic
I wanna ask why my honda accord, marking line of camshaft sprocket did not match perfectly (little bit) after I replace new set timing chain include new auto tensioner? The dot and gold pain on the timing chain seat correctly on teeth camshaft sporcket.
This happen when I rotate the crankshaft clockwise once.
By the way thank you so much for inspire guide video you make. Hehehehe
Ok so let me see if i get it right!?
You did set time right but then when you turn the engine one revolution the two line marks did not align correctly?
Remember the painted links will not align back where they started so the only recheck point you have after one revolution is TDC at crank and the two line marks on cam sprockets
@@GeneralMechanicGA sorry I forget to say it before. After I see the mark is incorrect when I turn one revolution so I turn the crank counter clock wise back again the mark did not match correctly but just litlle bit maybe 1.5-2.5 mm dismactch
My oil pump chain on 2005 Accord 2.4L has no tension on it. How to fix it? how to bring tension to it? Thanks.
Well it has its own tensioner so if no tension on it it may had failed

@@GeneralMechanicGA I just found out that I have a broken chain guide for the oil pump.
Glad you found the problem!
In other words you need the tensioner replaced!
Great video! How long did this take you? What does a mechanic charge(about) to do the job?
Hey thanks for taking the time to watch!
Well this job was done in one day of work for me
So you can say around 7hrs that will be having to run my shop at the same time!
And if I was doing this Job like who I did this for (auto Auction) would be around $650 labor only
Keeping in mind the tensioner cost around $150
So hope this would help!

Alright thank you very much!
Thank you for watching!
General Mechanic one question is normal after I set all the marks nice. When i rotate the engine to make sure everything is ok the tensioner is not maintaining the chain stretch is a used one
Hey!
Remember that tensioner works by oil pressure so if engine is not running it will not tens tight as it has to until the engine is running
All you have to make sure of is that it is not going all the way back and letting the chain jump time!
Is this common to go bad on these engines? I’m asking because I have 140,000 miles on my 2008. What were the symptoms that led to do this repair?
Car does not start, shuts off immediately. Code p0341
@@Ruben901 I have this code but no rattle on cold start, no idle problems, just a little sluggish on hills, and I’ve drove maybe 400 miles with this code. I also changed the camshaft sensor and still get the code. What should I do next? Oil was never low, I check every month for the last 3 years I’ve owned it.
Please what is the problem?
How did you learn that? Is there an annoying sound when the engine is turned on in the morning
Yes that is the most common sign of a bad tensioner
What are the symptoms of the problem and how can they be detected?
؟؟؟؟؟؟
This is a problem I have
↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓
th-cam.com/video/1IF5IhpCc6Y/w-d-xo.html
I have these codes with my car P0301 P0304 P0340 P0341 P0300 and I have changed the crankshaft, camshaft, battery, spark plugs. but it didnot work for me I have only 50000 miles on my Honda accord 2.4L. I have spend over a thousand dollar but I still couldnot figure it out. DO you think it is timing chain problem??
Hello!
Why would you change crank sensor
340 and 341 codes are about cam sensor
Must likely its gonna be your problem
Good luck!
@@GeneralMechanicGA well it all started from changing the crankshaft sensor. after few days it show camshaft problem and mechanic told me to drive it will have no problem. but after driving for few hundred miles it gave me the the misfire in 1 and 4 along with camshaft and crankshaft. I changed the whole cam and crank again today, and I got the camshaft and misfire code today.
Ok well what are all the codes you have now?
Could be wiring problem.
If you have a 340 or 341 had to do with circuit problem
Now if you have a cam to crank correlation then may be a timing issue.
What is the symtom of a chain going bad and need replacement anyone out there?
The most common symptom is a rattle when cranking
But also some retarded or advanced time code may show up
@@GeneralMechanicGA I have a 2010 accord that hums in a high speed ,is that the chain? Or something else?Maybe the wheel bearing ,Only when I'm on the freeway I hear it.
Hmmmm
That would be something to check out before guessing cause timing chain is a good bit of money
So yeah I would double check before calling it!
But most likely you may have a bad bearing!
@@GeneralMechanicGA Thank you for quick response.
i want to know also
You don't have to turn the engine? after the timing is set.
I like to do just to be safe that no valve are hitting any piston that will tell you time is done right
Remember this has to be done by hand not with starter!..
Changed ckp sensor cleared code PO339 but I can hear the chain. Think a tensioner went. This is a horrible time for this to happen. I can do the work that's not a problem just a horrible time to happen.
my tsx is cranking but wont start. Could my timing chain have jumped?
deflair lais
Yes it could be!
Have you tried pulling any codes with code reader?
If yes
Can you send them to me i could help on giving an idea!

Well ive cleared the code but it was the rocker arm actuator (vtc actuator) stuck on. However i lost nearly all my oil because the vtc filter bolt popped off while i was driving and it spent the spark plug seals. So ive cleaned it all up new alternator and battery cause the hot oil fried it. Cleaned the spark plug wells and the plugs didnt look too bad and didnt get a whole lot of oil on them. The marks looked off by a few teeth when i had the valve cover off. Would i just need to replace the chain and re time it and it'll work?
deflair lais
It should work!
This can wont vent any valves
I had it happen to me on one car it turned way off time... and no vent valves
Now on the code you have and the problem you are about to fix i think the root of your problem is going to be your whole spool valve ( vthec valve assemble)
I would replace it before cranking it after timing chain replaced!
I said this vases on other jobs i have done!
Just this past week i fixed a 06 civic and 06 accord with same problem!
Good luck
General Mechanic
Ive already replaced spool valve and all other vtec/ vtc solenoids, but thanks for the reminder! And ill let you know if it was just the timing or something more serious.
Most common failure on that engine is the timing tensioner
But best way to make sure timing is done right is
Taking cover off and redoing it!
Shouldn’t be to hard of a job!!
The reason you turn it clockwise is because the tensioner is on the opposite side. If you turn from the crankshaft which you should always do, then the pull is applied against the guide that doesnt have the tensioner so it doesnt move at all. If you turn it counter clockwise, then the tensioner is pushed on which causes the time to be off since the chain is technically stretched by the amount the tensioner is retracted back.
Sorry, I mistakenly tapped dislike. This is awesome.
I learnt something great 👍 about timing chain ⛓️ even though am not a Mechanic 🧰
Thanks for the great video! Would you ever have to replace the sprockets if the timing chain stretches?
Yes is recommended its just that some times when dealerships don’t allow you to spend too much money on car to resale but is best to just get the whole timing kit!
Great video.
