2. REMOVAL OF ENGINE MOUNT BRACKET
(1) Jack up the vehicle after placing a wooden block
between the jack and the engine’s oil pan.
Caution
Jack up carefully so as not to apply an excessive
load to the various parts.
(2) Remove the engine mount bracket.
20. REMOVAL OF TIMING BELT
(1) Turn the crankshaft clockwise and align the timing
marks.
Caution
The crankshaft must always be turned clockwise.
(2) Make a mark on the back of the timing belt indicating the direction of rotation so it may be reassembled in the
same direction if it is to be reused.
(3) Loosen the bolt and tension spacer of the timing belt tensioner.
(4) Move the timing belt tensioner to the water pump side and loosely tighten the bolt so that the tensioner
doesn’t return; then remove the timing belt.
NOTE
If the timing belt is to be re-used, use chalk to mark (on
its flat side) an arrow indicating the clockwise direc-
tion.
Caution
1. As water or oil on the belt can seriously reduce
its usable life, ensure that the timing belt,
sprocket, and tensioner stay clean and dry while
removed, and never wash them. Parts that have
become too dirty should be replaced.
2. When any of the parts are oily, check to see
whether there are any oil leaks in any of the oil
seals or the cam shaft oil seal on the front of the
engine.

20. INSTALLATION OF TIMING BELT
(1) Ensure that the timing marks of the camshaft sprock- et, the crankshaft sprocket, and the oil pump sprocket
are all aligned.
(2) When aligning the timing mark of the oil pump sprocket, remove the plug of the cylinder block; then
insert the shaft of a cross-tip
(+) screwdriver with a
shaft diameter of 8 mm
(.31 in.) into the plug hole and
check to be sure that the screwdriver’s shaft can be
inserted at least 60 mm (2.36 in.). Do not remove the
screwdriver until the timing belt is completely at-
tached.
If the screwdriver’s shaft can be inserted only to a
depth of about 20 to 25 mm
(.79 to .98 in.) because it
contacts the silent shaft, turn the sprocket by one rotation and align the timing mark once again; then
check again to be sure that the screwdriver’s shaft can be inserted at least 60 mm (2.36 in.).
(3) Install timing belt. While making sure that tension side
of belt is not slackened, install timing belt onto
crankshaft sprocket, oil pump sprocket and camshaf
t
sprocket in that order.
Caution
If the timing belt is reused, install so that the arrow
marked on it at the time of removal is pointing in
the clockwise direction.
l ADJUSTMENT OF TIMING BELT TENSION
(1) Loosen tensioner mounting bolt. By so doing, tension- er will be moved by spring and will apply tension to
belt.
(2) Recheck to be sure that each sprocket’s timing mark iscorrect.

(3) Turn the crankshaft clockwise by two teeth of the
camshaft sprocket.
Caution
As the purpose of this procedure is to apply the
proper amount of tension on the timing belt, be sure
not to rotate the crankshaft counter-clockwise or
place pressure on the belt to check the amount of
tension.

(4) Apply force on tensioner toward turning direction, (inthe direction of the arrow) such that no portion of the
belt raises out in portion A, place the belt on the
camshaft sprocket such that the belt sprocket teeth
are fully engaged.
(5) Tighten the tensioner installation bolt and tensioner spacer in that order.
Caution
If the tensioner spacer is tightened first, the ten-
sioner will rotate with it and belt tension be thrown
out of adjustment. Always tighten the bolt first.
