Engine Timing
Select the correct engine timing set for your vehicle. The tools lock the camshaft and crankshaft in position. This enables safe replacement of timing belts or chains. Match the set to your engine code or OEM number. Many sets include multiple inserts for different engines. Check the parts list to see if your engine is covered.

Engine timing tools
Choose the right set for your engine
Setting engine timing starts with the right tool. The sets lock the camshaft and crankshaft in the correct position. This lets you replace timing belts and chains without the valves hitting the pistons. When choosing, check the OEM number or engine code of your car. Many sets include multiple inserts for different engines. Also check the number of parts and whether the set fits your engine.
Where ordering goes wrong
A set for a different engine code often does not fit exactly. The locking pins have different diameters. The distance between the pins also varies per engine. Always check the engine code in the vehicle data. You will find it on the type plate or in the registration document. This prevents you from buying a set that does not fit.
Why the standard matters
Timing tools must meet the manufacturer's standards. These standards define the exact dimensions and tolerances. If you use a set that does not meet the standard, the timing can be off. This leads to poor running or engine damage. Always choose a set that suits your engine type.
This tool sits under Engine & Attachments. If you also need a new belt, look at Timing Belts, V-Belts & Multi-V-Belts. For setting the injection, use Petrol & Diesel Injectors. If the problem lies with the valves, go to Valves & Valve Springs.
