from the DLC3.
(b) When not using a hand±held tester.
(1) Using SST, connect the tachometer probe to termi-
nal TAC of the DLC3.

(See page EM±79)
13. REMOVE FAN BRACKET
Remove the 2 bolts, 2 nuts and fan bracket.
14. IF RE±USING TIMING BELT, CHECK INSTALLATION
MARKS ON TIMING BELT

turning the crankshaft pulley as shown in the illustration.
HINT:
If the installation marks have disappeared, place a new installa-
tion mark on the timing belt before removing each part.
15. LOOSEN CRANKSHAFT PULLEY BOLT

16. SET NO.1 CYLINDER TO TDC/COMPRESSION
(a) Turn the crankshaft pulley and align its groove with timing
mark º0º of the No.1 timing belt cover.
(b) Check that the timing marks of the camshaft timing pul-
leys and timing belt rear plates are aligned.
If not, turn the crankshaft 1 revolution (360°).
(c) Turn the crankshaft pulley approx. 50° clockwise, and
align the timing mark of the crankshaft pulley with the cen-
ters of the crankshaft pulley bolt and the No.2 timing belt
idler pulley bolt.
NOTICE:
If the timing belt is disengaged, having the crankshaft
pulley at the wrong angle can cause the piston head and
valve head to come into contact with each other when you
remove the camshaft timing pulley (step 15), causing dam-
age. So always set the crankshaft pulley at the correct
angle.
(d) Remove the crankshaft pulley bolt.
NOTICE:
Do not turn the crankshaft pulley.
17. REMOVE TIMING BELT TENSIONER
HINT:
When re±using the timing belt:
If the installation marks have disappeared, before remove
the timing belt, place 2 new installation marks on the tim-
ing belt to match the timing marks of the camshaft timing
pulleys.

INSPECTION
1. INSPECT TIMING BELT
NOTICE:
Do not bend, twist or turn the timing belt inside out.
Do not allow the timing belt to come into contact with
oil, water or steam.
Do not utilize timing belt tension when installing or re-
moving the mount bolt of the camshaft timing pulley.
If there is any defect, as shown in the illustration, check these
points:
(a) Premature parting
Check for proper installation.
Check the timing cover gasket for damage and
proper installation.
(b) If the belt teeth are cracked or damaged, check to see if
either camshaft is locked.
(c) If there is noticeable wear or cracks on the belt face,
check to see if there are nicks on the side of the idler
pulley lock and water pump.
(d) If there is wear or damage on even one side of the belt,
check the belt guide and the alignment of each pulley.
(e) If there is noticeable wear on the belt teeth, check timing
cover for damage and for foreign material on the pulley
teeth.
If necessary, replace the timing belt.
2. INSPECT IDLER PULLEYS
(a) Visually check the seal portion of the idler pulley for oil
leakage.
If leakage is found, replace the idler pulley.
(b) Check that the idler pulley turns smoothly.
If necessary, replace the idler pulley.
3. INSPECT TIMING BELT TENSIONER
(a) Visually check the seal portion of the tensioner for oil leak-
age.
HINT:
If there is only the faintest trace of oil on the seal on the push
rod side, the tensioner is all right.
If leakage is found, replace the tensioner.

(b) Hold the tensioner with both hands and push the push rod
strongly as shown to check that it doesn't move.
If the push rod moves, replace the tensioner.
NOTICE:
Never hold the tensioner push rod facing downward.
(c) Measure the protrusion of the push rod from the housing
end.
Protrusion: 10.5 to 11.5 mm (0.413 to 0.453 in.)
If the protrusion is not as specified, replace the tensioner.
