INSPECTION
1. INSPECT TIMING BELT
NOTICE:
Do not bend, twist or turn the timing belt inside out.
Do not allow the timing belt to come into contact with
oil, water or steam.
Do not utilize timing belt tension when installing or re-
moving the mounting bolt of the camshaft timing
pulley.
If there are any defects as shown in the illustration, check these
points:
(a) Premature parting
Check for proper installation.
Check the timing cover gasket for damage and
proper installation.
(b) If the belt teeth are cracked or damaged, check to see if
either camshaft or water pump is locked.
(c) If there is noticeable wear or cracks on the belt face,
check to see if there are nicks on the side of the idler
pulley lock.
(d) If there is wear or damage on only one side of the belt,
check the belt guide and the alignment of each pulley.
(e) If there is noticeable wear on the belt teeth, check the tim-
ing cover for damage, correct gasket installation, and for
foreign material on the pulley teeth.
If necessary, replace the timing belt.
2. INSPECT IDLER PULLEYS
Check that the idler pulley turns smoothly.
If necessary, replace the idler pulley.
3. INSPECT TENSION SPRING
(a) Measure the free length of tension spring.
Free length: 46.0 mm (1.811 in.)
If the free length is not as specified, replace the tension spring.
(b) Measure the tension of the tension spring at the specified
installed length.
Installed tension (at 50.5 mm (1.988 in.)):
22 − 27 N (2.25 − 2.75 kgf, 5.0 − 6.1 lbf)
If the installed tension is not as specified, replace the tension
spring.

5. TEMPORARILY INSTALL TIMING BELT
NOTICE:
The engine should be cold.
(a) Using the crankshaft pulley bolt, turn the crankshaft and
position the key groove of the crankshaft timing pulley up-
ward.
(b) Remove any oil or water on the crankshaft pulley, oil
pump pulley, water pump pulley, No. 1 idler pulley and No.
2 idler pulley, and keep them clean.
(c) Install the timing belt on the crankshaft timing pulley, oil
pump pulley, No. 1 idler pulley, water pump pulley and No.
2 idler pulley.
HINT:
When re−using timing belt:
Align the points marked during removal, and install the belt with
the arrow pointing in the direction of engine revolution.
6. INSTALL TIMING BELT GUIDE
Install the guide, facing the cup side outward.
7. INSTALL NO. 1 TIMING BELT COVER
(a) Check that the timing belt cover gaskets has no cracks or
peeling, etc.
If the gasket has cracks or peeling, etc., replace it using these
steps:
Using a screwdriver and gasket scraper, remove all
the old gasket material.
Thoroughly clean all components to remove all the
loose material.
Remove the backing paper from a new gasket and
install the gasket evenly to the part of the timing belt
cover shaded black in the illustration.
After installing the gasket, press down on it so that
the adhesive firmly sticks to the timing belt cover.
(b) Install the timing belt cover with the 4 bolts.
(c) Install the engine wire to the timing belt cover.
