I wonder whats the fastest method to check the timing to see if its correct or not on these motors?

The timing case was a very simple job, 10-20 mins really. What you do is grab a 22mm socket and wrench, go under the car and look for the little rubber cover on the exhaust side of the motor, so you can see the fly wheel and all. As you turn the motor (easy pezy) you will see some 3-4 little holes to lock the fly wheel onto. use a m8 bolt and jam it in there well. next go back up and undo the flywheel bolt, just like you would any regular bolt, anti clock wise. use a breaker bar or just use a long piece of square tubing or just regular tubing, 3 foot is plenty long. IIRC when you do it back up its 200ft/ibs.

But really when you do it back I would use prematex and not the steel or paper gasket. And the tensioner can be removed from the side as we know, if I knew I would had done that earlier. This wont be my last ti, I assure ya. In Germany I will grab another one and have fun there.
