There is a rhythm sound like a music beat, then there is a higher pitched sound, and finally, your engine has a diesel-like sound which could be the tappets needing adjustment.
there is a special procedure for setting the tention on the timing belt to get rid of that noise.
The 'special' procedure was it made for eliminating the belt noise, or for correctly fitting / tensioning the timing belt? If you have a link, wouldnt mind having a look
I remember this from my Honday days, I cant remember exactly how it went but it was something like
- warm the car up ( fans come on at least twice ) then turn engine off
- remove rocer cover, and timing belt covers
- monitor the engine temp via ECT so KOEO
- rotate the crank counter counter clockwise 4 times and set to TDC CYL1
- when ect temp reached soemthing like 82deg C then you back off the tentioner and then tighten the tentioner bolt
- rotate the crank counter counter clockwise 4 times and set to TDC CYL1
- when ect temp reached soemthing like 50deg C then you back off the tentioner and then tighten the tentioner bolt
then put the timing belt covers back on and your right to go
Ill have a look to see if I still have the tech documentation on this somewhere.
