Installation note
Timing belt
1. Check that the mark on the timing belt pulley is
aligned with the mating mark.
2. Check that the mating mark of the camshaft pul-
leys are aligned with the seal plate mating marks.

3. Install the timing belt tensioner and spring. Tem-
porarily secure it with the spring fully extended.
Caution
Do not damage the pulleys when securing the
tensioner pulley.
76G01B-024
4. Install the timing belt so that there is no looseness
at the tension side, and at the two camshaft pulleys.
Caution
a) If the timing belt is being reused, it must be
reinstalled to rotate in the original direction.
b) Check that there is no oil, grease, or dirt on
the timing belt.
76G01B-025
5. Loosen the tensioner lock bolt.
6. Turn the crankshaft twice in the direction of rota-
tion, and align the mating marks.
7. Check that the timing marks are correctly aligned.
If not aligned, remove the timing belt tensioner and
timing belt, and repeat steps 1—6.
69G01B-027
8. Turn the crankshaft to align the "S" mark of the
right side camshaft pulley with seal plate mating
mark.
Tighten the timing belt tensioner lock bolt.
Tightening torque:
37—52 Nm (3.8—5.3 m-kg, 27—38 ft-lb)

10. Check the timing belt deflection. If the deflection
is not correct, repeat the adjustment from step 5
above.
Timing belt deflection: 7.5—8.5 mm
(0.30—0.33 in) /98 N (10 kg, 22 lb)
Caution
Be sure not to apply tension other than that
of the tensioner spring.
