2001 NISSAN ALMERA service indicator

26 CHECK ªCOº %
1. Start engine and warm it up until engine coolant temperature indicator points to the middle of gauge.
SEF090Y
2. Rev engine (2,000 to 3,000 rpm) two or three times under no-load, then run engine at idle speed.
SEF978U
3. Check ªCOº %.
Idle CO:3-11%
4.
Without CONSULT-II
After checking CO%,
a. Disconnect the resistor from terminals of engine coolant temperature sensor.
b. Connect engine coolant temperature sensor harness connector to engine coolant temperature sensor.

BASIC SERVICE PROCEDUREQG
Inspection Procedure (Cont'd)
EC-55

JEF351Y
2. Disconnect the fuel hoses from the fuel injection pump.
3. Disconnect the harness connector from the fuel injection
pump.
+Disconnect the connector by pulling the connector stopper
fully.
+When the stopper is fully pulled, the connector will be discon-
nected together. For installation, push the connector half way
first, then press the stopper until it locks, so that the connec-
tor is connected together.
4. Remove the fuel injection pump rear bracket.
JEF352Y
5. Remove the front chain case.
+Move the power steering fluid reservoir tank from the bracket.
+Loosen and remove the mounting bolts in the reverse order of
the numbers shown in the figure.
+As for bolts 6, 10, and 11, remove with rubber washer because
there is not enough space for removing only the bolts.
CAUTION:
To prevent foreign objects from getting in the engine, cover
the opening during the removal of the front chain case.
JEF353Y
6. Adjust the No. 1 cylinder to the top dead center position.
+Turn the crankshaft pulley clockwise, then align the alignment
mark (punched mark) of the camshaft sprocket to the position
shown in the figure.
+There is no indicator on the crankshaft pulley.
+It is not necessary to mark the secondary timing chain for
removal because it can be matched by the link color for instal-
lation. However, the alignment mark on the fuel injection pump
sprocket is difficult to see; mark it if necessary.
JEF354Y
7. Remove the chain tensioner.
a. Push the plunger of the chain tensioner, then fix it with a tool
such as a push pin.
JEF355Y
b. Using the hexagon wrench (face to face: 5 mm) (SST), remove
the mounting bolts, then remove the chain tensioner.
+A multi-purpose tool may also be used.
