Removing
CAUTION!
Mark the direction of belt travel before
removing, using a crayon or marker.
Reinstalling a used belt in the opposite
direction could damage the belt.
- Remove ribbed belt page 13
-9 .
- Unclip toothed belt guard on both sides.
- Crank engine by hand to Top Dead Center (TDC) position.
- Check camshaft position. Large holes in camshaft sprocket locking
plates must face toward each other. If not, turn crankshaft one more
revolution.
- Remove Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor from left-hand side of
cylinder block.
The TDC hole in the crankshaft must be aligned with the hole for the
removed crankshaft position sensor (check by looking and feeling).
- Thread crankshaft holder 3242 into hole left by crankshaft position
sensor, and tighten slightly.

Installing
Note:
The arms of the puller must engage on the rear hub of the sprocket. - Loosen right and left camshaft sprockets from tapered ends of
camshafts using puller (Kukko 20-10 or equivalent).
- Install toothed belt over both camshaft sprockets first, then over
remaining sprockets, and over tensioning roller last.
Note:
The camshaft sprockets must be loose enough on the tapered ends of the
shafts so that the camshafts can still be turned, but tight enough that the
sprockets do not tilt out of alignment. - Install camshaft holder 3243.
