1. Camshaft allowable turning range – – – By timing
mark, within 90 from “V” mark on head cover on
both right and left.
2. Crankshaft allowable turning range – – – by punch
mark, within 90 from arrow mark on oil pump case
on both right and left.
CAUTION:
After timing belt is removed, never turn camshaft and crank-
shaft independently more than such an extent as shown be-
low. If turned, interference may occur among piston and
valves, and parts related to piston and valves may be dam-
aged.
12) Remove tensioner, tensioner plate, tensioner spring and
spring damper.
INSPECTION
Check timing belt for wear or crack. Replace it as necessary.
Check tensioner for smooth rotation and rattle.
INSTALLATION
1) Install tensioner plate (1) to tensioner (2).
Insert lug (3) of tensioner plate into hole (4) of tensioner.
2) Install tensioner (2) and tensioner plate (3).
Do not tighten the tensioner bolt (1) and stud by wrench yet.
Hand tighten only at this time.
Check to ensure that plate movement in arrow direction as
shown in figure causes tensioner to move in the same direction.
If no associated movement between plate and tensioner occurs,
remove tensioner and plate again and reinsert the plate lug into
tensioner hole.

3) Check that timing mark (3) on camshaft timing belt pulley (1) is
aligned with “V” mark (2) on cylinder head cover (4). If not, align
two marks by turning camshaft but be careful not to turn it more
than its allowable turning range which is described on previous
page.
4) Check that punch mark (2) on crank timing belt pulley (4) is
aligned with arrow mark (3) on oil pump case. If not, align two
marks by turning crankshaft but be careful not to turn it more
than its allowable turning range which is described on previous
page.
5) With two sets of marks aligned, install timing belt (1) on two pul-
leys in such a way that the drive side of belt is free of any slack,
and with tensioner plate pushed up by finger.
And then install tensioner spring and spring damper (2) as
shown in figure, and handtighten tensioner stud.
NOTE:
When installing timing belt, match arrow mark (
) on
timing belt with rotating direction of crankshaft.
In this state, No.1 piston is at top dead center of compres-
sion stroke.
6) To take up slack of timing belt, turn crankshaft two rotations
clockwise after installing it. After making sure that belt is free
from slack, tighten tensioner stud (1) first and then tensioner bolt
(2) to each specified torque.
Then confirm again that two sets of marks are aligned respec-
tively.

Before installing, make sure that rubber seal (1) is between wa-
ter pump and oil pump case and another between water pump
and cylinder head.

9) Install water pump pulley and water pump belt.
Adjust the belt tension to the specification.
Refer to Section 6B for procedure to adjust the belt tension.
10) Install air cleaner assembly.
11) Install fender apron extension of right side.
12) Connect negative cable at battery.

REMOVAL
1) Disconnect negative cable at battery.
2) Remove cylinder head cover as previously outlined.
3) Remove distributor and then its case from cylinder head.
4) Remove crankshaft pulley, timing belt outside cover and timing
belt as previously outlined.
After removing timing belt, set key (2) on crankshaft in position
as shown in figure by turning crankshaft. This is to prevent inter-
ference between valves and piston when reinstalling camshaft.
5) Remove camshaft timing belt pulley (1).
Lock camshaft (2) with a proper size rod (3) inserted into hole (10
mm, 0.39 in.) in it as shown and then loosen camshaft timing belt
pulley bolt.
NOTE:
Mating surfaces of cylinder head and cover must not be
damaged in this work. So, put clean shop cloth (4) between
rod and mating surfaces, and use care not to bump rod
against mating surfaces hard when loosening bolt.

INSTALLATION
1) Before installing valve lash adjuster to cylinder head, fill oil pas-
sage of cylinder head (1) with engine oil according to the follow-
ing procedure.
Pour engine oil through camshaft journal oil holes (2) and check
that oil comes out from oil holes in sliding part of valve lash ad-
juster.
2) Install lash adjuster to cylinder head.
Apply engine oil around valve lash adjuster and then install it to
cylinder head.
3) Install camshaft to cylinder head.
After applying engine oil to camshaft journal and all around cam,
set camshaft to cylinder head so that camshaft timing belt pulley
pin hole (1) in camshaft is at lower position.
4) Install camshaft housing to camshaft and cylinder head.
Apply engine oil to sliding surface of each housing against
camshaft journal.
Apply sealant to mating surface of No.1 and No.3 housings
which will mate with cylinder head.

Embossed marks are provided on each camshaft housing, in-
dicating position and direction for installation.

As camshaft housing No.1 (1) retains camshaft in proper
position as to thrust direction, make sure to first fit No.1 hous-
ing to No.1 journal of camshaft securely.
After applying engine oil to housing bolts, tighten them tem-
porarily first. Then tighten them by following sequence as
shown in figure.
Tighten a little at a time and evenly among bolts and repeat
tightening sequence three to four times before they are tight-
ened to specified torque.
