Hello everyone, new member here, former Fiat dealer in Central New York. Although I did some wrenching on the Fiats I have never done a 124 spider cam belt and need assistance.
1) Factory service manual I have states the cams are moved with the belt on by moving the vehicle manually in gear. I remember doing this as a lad what isn't clear is whether the cams eventually both align to their respective marks with this method.
2) I do not see any mark on the crank pulley, I seem to remember it aligning with marks on the cam cover is that correct?
3) I did not move anything since dis assembly except the auxiliary shaft which is easily re aligned, one would think the valve timing would be spot on if you are simply changing belts.
Many thanks in advance, I'd shoot ya a photo but I need four more posts.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, I'm all too aware what will happen if this process isn't done perfectly.
