ENGINE – T iming Belt 11-31
(17)Loosen the retaining bolt of the tensioner pulley.
Caution
Loosening the retaining bolt can cause the intake
and exhaust camshafts to turn, resulting in slackened
timing belt. Use care that the timing belt does not
come off the sprockets at this time.
(18)Pull up the slack of the timing belt by turning the tensioner in illustrated direction using the special tool and a torque
wrench (0 – 5 Nm {0 – 0.5 kgf
m}).
(19)From this position, turn back the tensioner until the torque wrench reading becomes 3.5 Nm {0.36 kgf
m}, then
secure it by tightening the retaining bolt.
(20)Remove the special tool attached in step (16).
(21)Rotate the crankshaft clockwise 2 turns. Then, leave it intact 15 minutes.
(22)Check to see that the wire inserted when installing the
auto-tensioner can be pulled out lightly. If it can be pulled
out lightly, the timing belt is being tensioned properly.
If so, remove the wire. In addition, check that the rod
protrusion from the auto-tensioner meets the standard
value, which is also an indication of properly tensioned
timing belt.
Standard value: 3.8 – 4.5 mm
(23)If the wire cannot be removed with a light force, repeat steps (16) through (21) until the proper belt tensioner
is obtained.MD998767

Disconnect the A/C compressor connector and remove the
compressor from the compressor bracket with the hose still
attached.
NOTE
Place the removed A/C compressor where it will not be a
hindrance when removing and installing the engine assembly,
and tie it with a cord.

E ENGINE ASSEMBLY REMOVAL
After checking that all cables, hoses and harness connectors,
etc., are disconnected from the engine, lift the chain block
slowly to remove the engine assembly upward from the engine
compartment.
INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS
 A ENGINE ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION
Install the engine assembly, checking that the cables, hoses,
and harness connectors are not clamped.
 B ENGINE MOUNT BRACKET INSTALLATION
(1) Place a garage jack against the engine oil pan with a piece of wood in between, and install the engine mount
bracket while adjusting the position of the engine.
(2) Support the engine with the garage jack.
(3) Remove the chain block and support the engine assembly
with the special tools.
 C HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL HOSE INSTALLATION
(1) Apply a small amount of new engine oil to the O-ring, then fit the O-ring in the delivery pipe.
Caution
Do not let any engine oil get into the delivery pipe.
(2) Check that the high pressure hose turns smoothly. If the hose does not turn smoothly, the O-ring is probably
being clamped. Disconnect the high-pressure fuel hose
and check the O-ring for damage. After this, re-install
the hose to the delivery pipe and check that the hose
turns smoothly.
(3) Tighten the mounting bolt to the specification.

(3) If the boost pressure is lower than the standard value,
check for following which are probably the cause:
Wastegate actuator inoperative
Boost pressure leak
Turbocharger defective
(4) If the boost pressure is higher than the standard value,
boost pressure control is probably faulty. Make the
following checks:
Wastegate actuator inoperative
Wastegate valve inoperative
Wastegate actuator rubber hose disconnected or
cracked
2. BOOST PRESSURE CONTROL SYSTEM
CHECK
(1) Disconnect the hose (black) from the wastegate solenoid
valve and connect a three-way joint between the hose
and solenoid valve.
(2) Connect a hand vacuum pump to the three-way joint.
(3) Disconnect the hose (black) from the intake pipe nipple
connected to the turbocharger compressor housing and
fit a blank plug to this nipple.
(4) Disconnect the negative cable from the battery, keep it
disconnected for 10 sec. or more, and then reconnect
it back again.
(5) Block and unblock the end of the vacuum hose (black)
with a finger to apply vacuum and check for the vacuum
condition.
