I have been replacing the head gasket and cleaning up a 1993 FIRE 1000 cc Panda. Last night, I reinstalled the timing belt. In the instructions, it says to lay in the belt, tighten the tensioning wheel, the rotate the belt two or three times manually using the CAM SHAFT bolt.
I did this and was very happy to hear the engine "puff" what sounded like compressed air out of the exhaust ports (I haven't replaced the exhaust manifold yet).
I don't know much about the rebuild process, this is my first time rebuilding, but it did sound encouraging. Hopefully, this weekend, the thing will be running again!
