Timing Locking Tool Kit Rockforce RF-401337 for Opel/Vauxhall/Saab 2.0, 2.2 DTI and Saab 2.2 TiD (7-piece)

The Rockforce Timing Locking Tool Kit RF-401337 is a 7-piece set engineered for accurate timing alignment on Opel, Vauxhall and Saab 2.0 and 2.2 DTI engines and Saab 2.2 TiD engines. Supplied in a dedicated carry case, the kit provides the dedicated locking tools needed to secure camshafts and the crankshaft during timing belt or chain replacement, preventing rotation and ensuring correct valve-to-piston positioning throughout service operations.

Advantages

The kit contains purpose-made locking pins and brackets that match factory timing positions for the supported engines, reducing the risk of incorrect timing during installation. Machined components offer a durable, heat- and wear-resistant fit appropriate for workshop use. The included carry case organizes the seven items for easy transport and storage, improving workflow efficiency in professional and amateur repair environments.

Suitable for

• Timing belt or timing chain replacement on Opel and Vauxhall 2.0 and 2.2 DTI engines
• Timing service and valve timing checks on Saab 2.2 TiD engines
• Engine rebuilds or partial disassembly where camshaft and crankshaft retention is required
• Independent garages and vehicle maintenance workshops performing scheduled timing work

When it may not be suitable

This set is designed specifically for the listed Opel, Vauxhall and Saab engine variants and may not fit other engine families or model years with different timing cover or sprocket designs. It does not include general hand tools such as sockets, torque wrenches or screwdrivers, so additional workshop tools will be required to perform a full timing job.

Key specifications

• Number of pieces: 7 dedicated locking tools
• Compatibility: Opel/Vauxhall 2.0 and 2.2 DTI engines; Saab 2.2 TiD engine
• Material: hardened steel and machined metal components for workshop durability
• Storage: fitted carry case for organized transport and storage
• Function: camshaft and crankshaft locking for precise timing alignment

How to use

Position the engine at the specified timing marks according to the vehicle manufacturer’s procedure. Fit the appropriate locking pins and brackets from the kit to secure the camshafts and crankshaft in the correct service positions. Confirm the components are seated and immobilizing rotation before removing or refitting the timing belt or chain. After completing timing work, remove the locking tools only once the belt or chain has been tensioned and aligned per service instructions.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify engine compatibility with your vehicle’s exact model year and engine code
• Ensure you have the necessary additional workshop tools (sockets, spanners, torque wrench) for timing service
• Check workshop space and lifting equipment requirements to safely access the timing components

Usage recommendations

Use the kit strictly following the vehicle manufacturer’s timing procedures and safety guidelines. Keep components clean and inspect for wear before each use; replace any deformed or damaged tool to avoid incorrect timing alignment. Store tools in the supplied case to prevent loss and to maintain precise fit for future service tasks.
