You can, but the main one you want is the 1986 Master Manual.

The others Cover the B20 and other fun things :cheers:

[BITESIZE]

How do I save them once they are downloaded, or are they already saved, i just have to find them.

Um you would right click the link, Click save as or save target as, and put them on your desktop or in a folder.:)

[BITESIZE]

THANKS FORREST!!!!! I looked up the picture in the online manuals. The same symbol matches, however my flywheel doesn't have a white mark, there is no paint. Doest this matter?

[forrest89sei]

Chances are the mark is worn off or it's a custom or Aftermarket Fly wheel.

I wouldn't worry :D

[BITESIZE]

So this 100% tdc?

[87lxiaccord]

Yeah you should be fine.

[EricW]

Yeah you should be fine.

[AccordB20A]

i thought T means TDC?? all my cars are set up that way :)

[BITESIZE]

Yup, that is tdc if anyone in the future searches....

Sure looks like it, if you have any doubts pull the plugs and watch the #1 piston. My car has factory flywheel, and it has no white marks either. The -T- mark is TDC crank, the keyway on the crank pulley should be at 12 oclock.
Funny thing is many references do not mention the -T-, just the infamous white mark I never found on mine.

[bullard123]

Which one of those manuals are for the B20a??

[A18A]

i would presume the same thing goes for the b20a

You can put on the adjustaroo cam gear on by marking the belt on both teeth that are parallel with the head. Basically the principal is to mark the belt so it goes on in the same respect as the adjustable cam gear is.. If you look at the key way on both cam gears, it should be pointing in the same respect as taken off. (also something to mark if worried about it)

Yes, I did this already, but the belt wouldn't come tight. I tried the "turn it 3 tooth" like the book said, but still no tighten. After dicking with it, it became too off. That is why I realigned it. I hope this helps someone in the future, by using the "search feature" :) .

[88Accord-DX]

Ohh, I see what happened, you got some slop in it when trying to put it on. Then it messed everything up. Gotcha

Personally, I don't mess that 3 tooth rule. But it's all in how you set the belt & tensioner then make 2 revolutions to check things.

[BITESIZE]

I used a screwdriver to move the tensioner in order to tighten the belt up, then I tightened the bolt. It work flawlessly. It's a brand new tension, but the spring is old. I figured the spring was bad, so I pryed on the tensioner to put it in the right spot. I started my car and let it warm to operating temp, and it is still at TDC. YAY!!!!!

[Blkblurr]

Did you try rotationg the cam several revolutions while you had the belt off to see if the valves cleared the #1 pistion?
