944 Adjusting the timing at the camshaft sprocket of a 944 S2


The Porsche 944 is a sports car manufactured by Porsche from 1982 until 1991. A front-engine, rear-wheel drive mid-level model based on the 924 platform, the 944 was available in coupé or cabriolet body styles, with either naturally aspirated or turbocharged engines.

Hi,

the 16 valve models of the 944 have the possibility of adjusting the timing at the sprocket of the camshaft. This is some kind of fine tuning, i.e. you adjust the timing within the distance of two teeth of the cambelt.

The decryption of the procedure is a little complicate to understand, thus I made a video tutorial, explaining the job step by step.

I think the right time for an adjustment is 2000 miles after the replacement of the belts, just after you checked the tension of the belt.

The video has a German soundtrack, but English subtitles are available at YouTube. If you don't see them by default, watch the video directly at YouTube and press the subtitles button below the frame.

Enjoy it,

Jürgen
