10) Align 4 timing marks as shown in figure to facilitate its installa-
tion.
11) Loosen tensioner bolt (3) and stud (4), and remove belt (1) from
crankshaft timing belt pulley and camshaft timing belt pulley af-
ter pushing up the tensioner plate (2) fully by finger as shown
figure.

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.

CAMSHAFT AND HYDRAULIC VALVE LASH ADJUSTER
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.

6) Remove camshaft housings from cylinder head.
7) Remove camshaft from cylinder head.
8) Remove valve lash adjuster from cylinder head.
NOTE:
Never disassemble hydraulic valve lash adjuster.
Don’t apply force to body of adjuster, for oil in high pres-
sure chamber in adjuster will leak.
Immerse removed adjuster (2) in clean engine oil (1) and
keep it there till reinstalling it so as to prevent oil leakage.
If it is left in air, place it with its bucket body facing down.
Don’t place on its side or with bucket body facing up.
