Product Description
The Laser Tools 8514 is a complete master timing kit for PSA and Stellantis EB0 and EB2 wet belt petrol engines.
Its main advantage is flexibility.
Early EB2 engines use a one piece cam cover, which must be removed to access the camshafts for timing.
Later engines use a split plastic cam cover, allowing a simpler and faster timing method.
The 8514 contains the tools required for both approaches, giving workshops a single kit capable of covering the two main service methods.

What Makes the 8514 a Master Kit?
The 8514 is not just another timing kit.
It combines three key Laser tool packages:
Laser Tools 8570
Engine Timing Master Kit for PSA 1.0 and 1.2 EB2 Petrol.
Laser Tools 8369
Crankshaft Holding Tool for PSA, Toyota and Vauxhall 1.0 and 1.2 Petrol.
Laser Tools 8870
Camshaft Locking Tool for Citroën, Peugeot and Opel 1.2L Wet Belt Petrol.
Together, these give the technician a much broader range of timing and holding options than a basic kit alone.
Early and Later Cam Cover Designs
This is one of the most important reasons to choose the 8514.
Early EB2 Engines
Earlier engines use a one piece cam cover.
To access the camshafts for timing, the cover must be removed.
This makes the timing procedure more involved.
Later EB2 Engines
Later engines use a split plastic cam cover.
This allows the technician to use a simpler timing method without the same level of dismantling.
The 8514 includes the tools needed for both systems.
That can save substantial time when working on later engines while still maintaining coverage for the earlier design.
Workshop Notes
Before beginning work:
• Confirm the exact engine code.
• Identify whether the engine has a one piece or split cam cover.
• Follow the correct OEM procedure for that engine.
• Use the crankshaft holding tool where specified.
• Use the correct camshaft timing or locking tools.
• Check belt condition and related components.
• Never force timing equipment into position.
The correct tool route depends on the engine configuration.
That is exactly why the master kit includes more than one timing method.

For definitive compatibility, refer to the current full application list.
Understanding the Wet Belt System
The EB0 and EB2 engines use a belt in oil timing system, commonly referred to as a wet belt.
The timing belt operates within the engine's lubricated environment rather than completely dry behind a conventional cover.
This means belt condition can be influenced by:
• Correct engine oil specification.
• Oil contamination.
• Service interval history.
• Belt material deterioration.
• Operating conditions.
When servicing a wet belt engine, the timing belt should be considered as part of the wider lubrication and timing system.

Included Specialist Laser Tools
The 8514 includes equipment available separately as:
Laser 8570
Engine Timing Master Kit for PSA 1.0 and 1.2 EB2 Petrol.
Laser 8369
Crankshaft Holding Tool.
Laser 8870
Exhaust Camshaft Locking Tool.
This makes the 8514 the complete package for workshops wanting broad EB0 and EB2 wet belt coverage in one purchase.
Why the Crankshaft Holding Tool Matters
Timing alignment and torque reaction are different jobs.
A crankshaft alignment pin establishes position.
A crankshaft holding tool is designed to resist the force generated while loosening or tightening the crankshaft pulley fastener.
The 8514 includes the dedicated 8369 crankshaft holding tool, avoiding the need to use precision alignment equipment for a job it was not designed to perform.
That distinction protects both the engine and the timing tools.
The 8870 Exhaust Camshaft Tool
The inclusion of the newer Laser 8870 exhaust camshaft alignment tool is one of the key upgrades within the 8514.
It allows the technician to work with later split cam cover engines using the simpler timing method.
This can reduce dismantling and save significant workshop time.
Instead of forcing the older timing procedure onto every engine, the 8514 gives the technician the correct tool for the later design.
Belt Inspection Is Part of the Job
On wet belt engines, belt replacement should rarely be viewed in isolation.
Inspect in accordance with manufacturer procedures for:
• Belt deterioration.
• Belt swelling.
• Surface cracking.
• Missing material.
• Oil contamination.
• Debris.
• Tensioning components.
• Related seals.
• Lubrication system contamination where applicable.
A timing kit positions the engine correctly.
It does not replace diagnosis of why the belt needs attention.
Timing Tools Are Not Universal Holding Tools
This is particularly important on EB0 and EB2 engines.
The timing pins and camshaft fixtures establish component position.
The dedicated crankshaft holding tool absorbs fastening torque.
Do not use alignment tools as makeshift holding equipment unless the procedure specifically permits it.
A precision timing tool can be damaged or distorted if subjected to unintended torque loads.
Important Usage Information
Use only in accordance with current OEM instructions.
Confirm exact engine and vehicle compatibility before use.
Identify whether the engine has an early one piece or later split cam cover.
Use the appropriate timing method for that engine.
Use the dedicated crankshaft holding tool where specified.
Never force timing fixtures into position.
Inspect wet belt condition carefully.
Observe all manufacturer torque and angle procedures.
Verify final engine timing after assembly.
Incorrect timing can result in poor running or serious internal engine damage.
This kit is intended for competent technicians familiar with wet belt timing procedures.

Made in Sheffield 🇬🇧
The Laser 8514 is made in Sheffield and is a particularly good example of a master kit being designed around the different generations of the engine, rather than simply increasing the piece count.
The early engines require one route.
The later engines allow another.
The kit gives the technician both.
That is more valuable than a box containing tools that all perform the same basic function.
Why Choose Laser Tools?
The strongest feature of the 8514 is its ability to let the workshop choose the most appropriate timing procedure for the engine being serviced.
Early engine?
Use the tooling required for the one piece cam cover arrangement.
Later engine?
Take advantage of the split cover and quicker procedure.
Need to resist crankshaft pulley torque?
Use the dedicated holding tool.
That breadth of capability is exactly what a master kit should provide.
Chief Editor's Observation
This is a very good example of why the word master should mean more than simply "contains more tools."
The real value of the 8514 is that it understands the EB engine family changed over time.
An early engine may require the cam cover to come off.
A later split cover gives the technician a quicker route into the timing procedure.
Laser hasn't forced one method onto both.
It has put the tooling for both methods in the same kit.
And from a workshop point of view, that is exactly the right approach.
The quickest correct method should always beat the longest familiar one.
