Hello,
How do you change the balancer belt and Timing belt for a 92 Accord equipped with an F22A6 Engine?
Thanks.
Which one will come off first, etc.

the timing belt comes off first, then the balancer belt. it is involved and labor intensive. i suggest you have a shop perform this for you as you can do a lot of damage if it is not done correctly.

Thanks, and No worries, I have already done this on a 99' Odyssey Before.
Just never encountered a Balance belt.

that is easy. once it comes off, there is a timing mark on the one gear and the other is timed by removing a 14 mm bolt and inserting a small philips head to align the balance shaft.
