I am trying to set the timing on a 1.3 liter and the manual that i have doesn't show the timing marks or a picture

NEED TO KNOW TIMING MARKS DO U HAVE A DIAGRAM

timing gear and crank initial timing position

Hi timomo,

The site has just been upgraded and everything is different so I am still feeling my way around. I can't find any way of posting diagrams so if you would let me have your email, I would send the replacement procedures to you.

1994 Geo Metro

I have a 1994 Geo Metro 1.0 This is a 3 cylinder engine. This car broke a timing belt before I got it and someone else has had the cam gear out. We are trying to time the car and would like to know the correct position of the cam gear. There are 2 timing marks 60A and 80A. Wich one is the correct one to use? The car runs but lacks power.

Check that the timing mark on the camshaft timing pulley is aligned with the V mark on the cylinder head cover. If not align the 2 marks by turning the camshaft by be careful not to turn it more than the allowable range. Check that the punch mark on the crankshaft timing belt pulley is aligned with the arrow mark on the oil pump case. If not align the 2 marks by turning the camshaft by be careful not to turn it more than the allowable range. With the 4 marks aligned, install the timing belt on the 2 pulleys in such a way that the arrow marks on the belt (if so equipped) coincide with the rotating direction of the crankshaft. In this state the No. 1 piston is at top dead center of its compression stroke.

YOU sent me a schematic of the timing marks for my geo metro 1.0 3cyl and i did the timeing and all that but it still dose nothing but crank over and over but wont start still.. it's getting fuel and spark but still wont start can you please give me some advice as what to try to get it to start?

You are bouncing all over the place and I couldn't keep up with you lets keep it in one post just hit ( reply to question ) recheck the timing marks I had sent you the diagram do a compression test check the if you have the spark plug clean and in the correct order

THANK YOU FOR THE FIERING ORDER FOR MY METRO NOW DOSE THE CRANK SHAFT PULLY HAVE LEFT HAND THREADS CAUSE I CAN'T GET IT TO BREAK LOSE FOR ME.

Left turn
Its very tight
use of air tools would be wise

how do the timing gears/pulleys align? i think the crankshaft pulley timing mark is on top dead center, but i'm not sure of the position of the camshaft mark. the engine is a 1.0 ltr suzuki.

Put the engine no.1 piston on its compresssion/TDC and line the sprockets -see below

1987 Geo Metro 150000 miles

I am trying to ficure out the timing mark alignment for a 1.0 liter three cylinder. i have a manual but it is just telling me to align them. Do i align them crank gear up cam gear down? or both up? I am lost

Put the engine no.1 piston on its compression stroke then align the sprockets as you see below

as in tdc?

Correct

lining up notches according to book and vehicle won't crank

This is your timing marks need manual CHECK IT @ https://www.2carpros.com/kpages/auto_repair_manuals.htm

Have a 95 metro 3 cyl, having trouble with timing we lined up all the marks put the belt on made sure rotor was pointing at number 1 cyl an statrted it an it carried on like crazy also does the cam sprocket turn a half turn to crank sprocket full turn? and is the num 1 terminal on dist cap nearest the top of motor?What should the timing be set at 0' or what thanks?

Cam sprocket is half the speed of the crankshaft.
