1. Set the timing belt drive pulley so that the No. 1 pis'
ton is at top dead center (TDC). Align the groove on
the timing belt drive pulley to the V pointer on the
oil pumP.

NOTE: Make sure the timing belt drive pulley andcamshaft pullevs are at TDC,
Loosen and retighten the adjusting bolt to tensionthe timing belt.
Install the lower cover and middle cover.
NOTE: Clean the middle and lower covers beforeinstalling.
Install the crankshaft pulley, then tighten the pulleybolt (see page 459).
Rotate the crankshaft pulley about five or six turnscounterclockwise so that the timing belt positions onthe pulleys.
Adjust the timing belt tension (see page A611.

CRANKSHAFT PULLEY
CAMSHAFT PULLEY:
lf the camshaft and crankshaft pulleys are not posi-tioned at TDC, remove the timing belt, adjust theposition following the procedure on page &63, thenreinstall the timing belt.
After installation, adjust the tension of each belt.

Removal
Engine removal is not required for this procedure.
!@@ Make sure jacks and safety stands are placed
properly and hoist brackels are attached to correst posi-
tion on the engine,
CAUTION:
o Use fender covers to avoid damaging painted sur-
faces.
To avoid damage, unplug the wiling connectors
carelully while holding the connector portion.
To avoid damaging the cylinder head, wait until the
engine coolant temperature drops below 100"F {38'Cl
before loosening the retaining bolt.
NOTE:
. Unspecified items are common.
. Mark all wiring and hoses to avoid misconnection.
AIso, be sure that they do not contact other wiring or
hoses or interfere with other parts.
o Inspect the timing belt before removing the cylinder
n eao.
. Turn the crankshaft pulley so that the No. 1 piston is
at top dead center (see page 6-64).
1. Disconnect the negative terminal from the battery.
Drain the engine coolant {see page 10-7).
. Remove the radiator cap to speed draining.
Remove the strut brace (see page 5-2).
Remove the intake air duct and air cleaner housing
(see page 5-3).
Remove the adjusting bolt and mounting bolt, then
remove the power steering (P/S) pump belt and pump
(see page 5 5).

7. lf the camshaft-to-holder oil clearance is out of tol-
erance:
- And the camshaft has already been replaced, you
must replace the cylinder head.- lf the camshaft has not been replaced, first check
the total runout with the camshaft supported on
V-blocks.
Camshaft Total Runout:
Standard (New): 0.03 mm {0.001 in} max.
Service Limit: 0.04 mm (0.002 inl
- lf the total runout of the camshaft is within toler,
ance, replace the cylinder head.- lf the total runout is out of tolerance. replace the
camshaft and recheck the camshaft to,holder oil
clearance. lf the oil clearance is still out of toler-
ance, replace the cylinder head.
