Adjustment
NOTE:
. Valves should be adjusted cold; at a cylinder head
temperature of less than 100'F (38"C).
Adjustment is the same for both intake and exhaust
valves.
. After adjusting, retorque the crankshaft pulley bolt to
177 N.m (18.0 kgf.m, 130 lbf'ft).
1. Remove cylinder head cover.

2. Set the No. 1 piston at top dead center (TDC) (see
page 6-12). "UP" mark on the pulley should be at
the top, and the TDC grooves on the pulley should
align with the TDC groove on timing belt back
cover. TDC mark (painted white) on the crankshaftpulley should align with pointer on the timing belt

a When installing a new crankshaft and/or new pulley
bolt:
O tighten the pulley bolt to 196 N.m (20.0 kgim, 145
lbf.ft),
@ loosen the bolt,
o retighten it to 177 N.m (18.0 kgf.m, 130 lbift).
When installing the bolt, lubricate the threads and
flange with engine oil, but don't lubricate the washer
and DUllev.
Don't lubricate washer.

Timing Belt
Inspection
1.Remove the cylinder head cover.
o Refer to page 6-33 when installing.
Inspect the timing belt for cracks and oil or coolant
soal(n9.
NOTE:
. Replace the belt if oil or coolant soaked.
. Remove any oil or solvent that gets on the belt.
2.
Rotate pulley
and inspect belt.
After inspecting. retorque the crankshaft pulley bolt
to 177 N'm (18.0 kgf.m, 130 lbnft).
CAUTION: Always adiust iiming belt lension with the
engin€ cold.
NOTE:
. The tensioner is spring-loaded to apply proper ten-
sion to the belt automatically after making the follow-
ing adjustment.
. Alwavs rotate the crankshaft counterclockwise when
viewed from the pulley side. Rotating it clockwise
may result in improper adjustment of the belt ten-
ston.
Remove the cylinder head cover. (Refer to page
6-33 when installing.)
Set the No. I piston at TDC (see page 6-12).
Rotate the crankshaft five to six revolutions to set
the belt.
Set the No. 1 piston at TDC.

To check main bearing-to-iournal oil clearance,
remove the main caps and bearing halves.
Clean each main iournal and bearing half with a
clean shop towel.
Place one strip of plastigage across each main iour-
na l-
NOTE: lf the engine is still in the car when you bolt
the main cap down to check clearance, the weight
of the crankshaft and flywheel will flatten the plasti'
gage further than just the torque on the cap bolt,
and give you an incorrect reading. For an accurate
reading, support the crank with a jack under the
counterweights and check only one bearing at a
trme.
Reinstall the bearing caps and cap bridge (B18C1,
B18C5 engines only)then torque the bolts.

NOTE: Do not rotate the crankshaft during inspec-
tro n.
Remove the cap bridge (818C1, 818C5 engines
only), caps and bearings again, and measure the
widest part of the plastigage.

PLASTIGAGE STRIP
lf the plastigage measures too wide or too narrow,
{remove the engine if it's still in the car), remove the
crankshaft, and remove the upper half of the bear-
ing. lnstall a new, complete bearing with the same
color code (select the color as shown in the right
column), and recheck the clearance.
CAUTION: Do not file, shim. or scrape the bearings
or the caps to adiust clearance.
lf the plastigage shows the clearance is still incor-
rect, try the next larger or smaller bearing (the color
listed above or below that one), and check again.
NOTE: lf the oroDer clearance cannot be obtained
by using the appropriate larger or smaller bearings.
reolace the crankshaft and start over.

CAUTION: lf the codes ale indecipherable because of
an accumulation oI dirt and dust, do not scrub them
with a wire bru6h or scraper. Clean lhem only with sol-
vent or detergent.
