Hey guys, i changed the water pump and the timing belt on my car, and behind the harmonic balancer is the belt.. and a large washer with a notch for a pin to keep it aligned with the crank etc.. when i put the washer back on, it didn't seem to have the alignment pin go through it.. i was under the assumption the half moon shape pin would push through it when you tightened the balancer back up. Well upon starting the car again.. and revving it after a while, i have a loud rubbing noise( i believe the washer against the metal cover with the timing mark on it). How to do set this up with the notch? is there a second pin other than the half moon for the balancer and ive managed to loose it? Thanks guys.

there are 2 woodruff keys, one for the timing gear and one for the balancer. Assuming you didn't take the timing gear off and did put the one back under the balancer that is not your problem.

still need to pull everything apart again to see what is wrong though....

no i didn't take the timing gear off.. and yes.. i put the one for balancer back on.. though when i put the washer plate back on.. neither of the woodruff keys seemed to go through the washer plate to lock it so to speak.. i think it is just free spinning, and its rubbing on the metal cover shroud and making a hell of a noise.

Does the key from the timing gear come out far enough for the washer plate to lock onto? or does the balancer key meant to hold the plate?

Does it need to have the washer plate on? Does the curled lip around its circumference face the belt or away from the belt? I'm guessing away is the obvious.

So many questions, if only i had taken a reference picture before i got carried away changing things.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
