That just looks so easy, these little trucks seem to be a joy to work on. I think I'll get one

[@Liberty4Ever]

Great camera work to show the process as clearly as possible. My Hijet is the TwinCam so it'll be slightly different but I saved this video to my Hijet list for future reference, and so I can refer others who need to do this job. I would have replaced the timing belt tensioner, and probably the water pump and alternator belt at the same time.

Gotta love Daihatsu giving you ample room at the front of the engine to do this job. The new generation S200/210Ps are the exact same.
Another thing to note is that the Daihatsu E engines are interference design so it is critical to make sure your timing marks are correct or you WILL ruin your engine when you go to turn it over.

Perfect video!!

[@jcksnghst]

Awesome!
Thank you so much for this!

[@jamesjohnson8661]

For anyone watching this who's preparing to change the belt on their hijet with air condition, there's a second belt to contend with. Not a big deal, but there are brackets (and associated bolts that must be loosened) on both the front and back of the compressor. The easiest way to access the aft bolts is via the engine cover in the bed.

Nice!

No, that would be 1300cc. These are either 550 or 660 cc depending on year

[@saykpv6258]

Thanks

I have a '91 S83P, but I assume its similar. I should probably change mine because I have no earthly idea how many miles are on the truck; the hillbillies I bought it from tried to (it seems) turn back the odometer and the 2 leftmost digits are broke.

[@markpang8847]

New sub. The way you both grab the correct angles for the shots is perfect. Great job. New sub. I got a 1992 JUMBO Hijet. The alternator belt snapped. Should I do the timing belt at the same time??? Or just wait? Your opinion matters. Thank you.

[@jdmgems]

Why not do a timing belt job just to be safe.

[@markpang8847]

@@jdmgemsI’m mechanically declined. Lol. You made it look easy. But I’m lacking in the tool department as well.

[@danielkenneston1630]

Excellent video! Following along in my s110p (with A/C so there’s an added step) but I feel like I’m missing something obvious. When I go to loosen the crankshaft and water pump, both pulley spin free. It’s the same in gear and out of gear. All four wheels on the ground… what am I missing?

[@natehill8069]

Transfer case not in either gear fully?

[@whiterabbit729]

Same thing with me. Did you ever figure it out?

[@MuhammedHamzaadamu107-tz3rg]

Hello, I wonder why the hijet ring is not coming soon

[@whiterabbit729]

Am I missing something? The very first step (loosen crank shaft bolt), that bolt spins freely. The alternator belt and all 3 pulleys spins with it and nothing loosens when that bolt is turned. I’m using a long box wrench, but there is no way an impact is fitting in there. The back of the radiator is about 4 inches from the crank shaft bolt.

[@charlie-kd7it]

new sub. hi @JDM my dads ask me to help him find where the crackshaft position sensor is for hes extol any chance for info on that buddy. thnks

[@jdmgems]

There's actually not a crackshaft position sensor it's carbureted

Is this vehicle a 1.3l?

[@geivanmason5514]

will this work on a 93 Hijet van? I am thinking of buying one soon but I am curious if they have the same engines

[@jdmgems]

Yes it’ll be the same

[@rafaelduval786]

Por favor haga un video de ella hijet de 4wd

[@jeffreymars3274]

What do you torque the bolts to?

[@jdmgems]

I just torque them down based off feel since I have done so many timing belts. So I can’t give you a proper torque spec for the bolts. Sorry 😓

[@tacoman864]

I have a 1996 s110p hijet sohc does it take the same belt?

[@jdmgems]

It’ll be different
But similar process

[@tacoman864]
