Removal
NOTE:
. Replace the timing belt at 105,000 miles (168.000 km)
according to the maintenance schedule (normal con-
ditions/severe conditions).
lf the vehicle is regularly driven in one or more of the
followlng conditions, replace the timing belt at 60.000
miles (U.S.A.) 100,000 km {Canada).
.In very high temperatures (over 110'F.43'C)
. In very low temperatures (under -20'F, -29"C)'
! Turn the crankshaft pulley so the No. 1 piston is at
top dead center (TDC) before removing the belt (see
page 6'21).
. Inspect the water pump before installing the timing
belt {see Page 10-14).
1. Remove the splash shield (see page 5-7).
2. Loosen the mounting bolt and lock bolt. then remove

Valve Guides
Replacement (cont'd)
Working from the camshaft side, use the driver andan air hammer to drive the guide about 2 mm (0.1 in)towards the combustion chamber. This will knock offsome of the carbon and make removal easier.
CAUTION:
. Always wear satety goggles or a face shield when
driving valve guides.
. Hold the air hammer directly in line with thevalve guide to prevent damaging the driver.
Turn the head over, and drive the guide out towardthe camshaft side of the head.

It a valve guide still won't move, drill it out with a8 mm {5/16 in) bit, then try again.
CAUTION: Drill guides only in extreme cases; you
could damage the cylinder head it the guide breaks.
6. Remove the new guides from the freezer, one at atime, as you need them.

I7. Apply a thin coat of clean engine oil to the outsideof the new valve guide. Install the guide from thecamshaft side of the head; use the special tool todrive the guide in to the specified insralled height. lfyou have all 16 guides to do, you may have to reheat
the head.
