A new timing-tool kit has just been released by Laser Tools, the Laser 8824 Engine Timing Kit developed to allow the user to align, set and check the engine timing of Volkswagen Group EA 211, 4-cylinder TSI petrol engines without the need to resort to computer-based alignment tools.

The 8824 utilises a battery-powered digital inclinometer combined with precision manufactured adaptors and alignment tools to ensure the camshafts are set correctly to the manufacturer’s specification. When making the alignment, there should be no requirement for interaction with the vehicle’s OBD system when following the Laser Tools’ procedures.

Applications include Audi (from 2017), Seat (from 2017), Skoda (from 2017) and Volkswagen (from 2017). Engine applications include: 1.5L TSi petrol engines -DACA, DACB, DADA, DFYA, DHFA, DPBA, DPCA and DPBE, with included engine variants EA211 and EVO 4-cylinder TSi ACT. Earlier Groups 3 and 4 TSI petrol engines can also be timed accurately by adding the 8866 adaptor kit to the 8824 kit.

The kit is designed by Laser Tools and manufactured in the UK. It is now available for purchase from your Laser Tools stockist.
