Installation


12. Remove the bolt which secures the sprocket to the exhaust
camshaft.
Move the sprocket forward from the camshaft boss.
Remove the sprocket and leav e the chain resting on the
cylinder head.
13. Clean and inspect all relevant components.

1. Push the tensioner piston into the body to provide clearance
for installing. Tensioner fitted to cylinder head.
1. Insert a thin rigid wire th rough the hole in the end of
the tensioner piston to displace the ball from the non-
return valve seat.
2. With the wire in position, press the piston fully into the tensioner body.
Remove the wire.

2. Install the sprocket to the secondary chain.
1. With the sprocket installe d to the chain, temporarily
position (do not install the securing bolt) the sprocket
onto the camshaft.
2. Adjust the position of the sprocket within the chain to
allow the chain tensioning tool 303-532 to be
approximately vertical, as shown.
3. Install the cams haft sprocket.
Apply force to the tool (303-532) in an anti-clockwise
direction to tension the chain on its drive side.
Whilst applying the opposing force to the sprocket and
chain, tighten the sprocket securing bolt to 115-125 Nm.
Remove the chain tensioning tool.
