Spent yesterday doing a change on the cambelt and my valve clearances. Everything went fine and I was happy with the tension on the cam belt, AC, PS and alternator pulleys and all timing marks were go too. I took the spark plugs out and turned the engine over anti-clockwise just be sure there was tightness and no contact between valves and pistons.
Now when the car runs it has a wining noise coming from it.
I used a gates belt with a koyo tensioner, what is the general rule of thumb for tension on the timing belt, I have herd it should allow close to 90 degree twist in the middle of the longest run?
Currently uploading 2 videos to youtube to show the sound.
