CAUTION:
+Do not bend or twist timing belt.
+After removing timing belt, do not turn crankshaft and
camshaft separately because valves will strike piston
heads.
+Make sure that timing belt, camshaft sprocket, crankshaft
sprocket, idler pulley, injection pump pulley and belt ten-
sioner are clean and free from oil and water.
+Align white lines on timing belt with punch mark on cam-
shaft sprocket, crankshaft sprocket and injection pump
pulley.
+Installation should be carried out when engine is cold.
Removal
1. Remove radiator shroud.
2. Remove the following belts.
+Power steering drive belt
+A/C compressor drive belt
+Alternator drive belt
3. Remove cooling fan coupling and water pump pulley.

sion stroke, as shown.
5. Remove the starter motor and wipe off the liquid gasket remain-
ing on the connecting part.
6. Install the ring gear stopper using the bolt holes for ®xing the

Installation
1. Con®rm that No. 1 cylinder is set at BDC on its expansion
stroke as follows:
Con®rm that crankshaft key is at the bottom.
2. Set timing belt.
a. Ensure timing belt, sprockets and pulleys are clean and
free from oil or water. Do not bend or twist timing belt too
much.
b. Align white lines on timing belt with matching mark on
camshaft sprocket, crankshaft sprocket and injection
pump pulley.
c. Point arrow on timing belt toward front.

(3.3 - 4.1 kg-m, 24 - 30 ft-lb)
4. Install front cover.
5. Install crankshaft pulley.
6. Install water pump pulley and cooling fan coupling.
7. Apply liquid gasket to the connecting surface and install the
starter motor.
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.

VALVE OIL SEAL
1. Remove timing belts.
2. Remove camshaft sprocket and back covers.
3. Remove camshaft brackets by loosening bracket nuts from
center to outside in two or three stages.
4. Remove camshaft oil seals and camshaft.
5. Remove valve lifters and mark order No. on each lifter.
6. Replace valve oil seal according to the following procedure.
When replacing valve oil seal, set the corresponding piston at
TDC. Failure to do so causes the valve to drop into the cylin-
der.
1) Set No. 1 cylinder at TDC.
2) Remove valve springs and valve oil seals for No. 1 and No. 6
cylinders. Valve spring seats should not be removed.
3) Install new valve oil seals for No. 1 and No. 6 cylinders as
illustrated. Reinstall valve springs. (narrow pitch side toward
cylinder head)
4) Install valve spring retainers on intake valves and valve rotators
on exhaust valves, and remount valve assembly.
5) Set No. 2 cylinder at TDC.
6) Replace valve oil seals for No. 2 and No. 5 cylinders according
to steps 2) and 3).
7) Set No. 3 cylinder at TDC.
8) Replace valve oil seals for No. 3 and No. 4 cylinders according
to steps 2) and 3).
9) Install valve lifters in original positions.
