Hey everyone,
I replaced my timing belt a few months ago, and it has been running very poor on fuel (10-14L per 100km). I am concerned that my timing belt is off a tooth or two, causing the engine to run rich. I can smell the rich fuel too. I just wanted to know how to adjust my timing belt on the cam gear (move it anticlockwise or clockwise one tooth in relation to the belt). I don’t know whether the cam has advanced or retarded after the replacement, does advancing the cam gear cause rich running or does retarding the cam gear cause that?
Thanks
