Adjusting the fitting tension of the timing belt.
A:Engine:HFX – KFV.
B:
Engine:NFU.
Slacken the nut while maintaining the position of the tensioner roller, with the aid of
a hexagonal spanner at
«a».
Next bring the index
«c»to its adjusting position «a».
The index
«c»should not go beyond the notch «g».
WARNING:The index«c» must not go beyond the notch«g».If it should do this,
restart the timing belt tensioning operation.
Hold the tensioner roller
(7)in this position, with the aid of a hexagonal spanner.
Tighten the tensioner roller fixing nut to :
2 ±0.2 m.daN.(HFX - KFV engines)
2.2 ± 0.2 m.daN.(NFU engine)
IMPERATIVE: The tensioner roller must not rotate during the tightening of its
fixing. If it does, restart the timing belt tensioning operation.
Complete the refitting.

Refitting the timing belt.
NOTE:
Check that the pegs [1]and [2]are in place.
WARNING: Respect the direction of fitting of the belt: The arrows "a" indicate the direction of rotation of
the crankshaft.
Position:
The timing belt, belt "b"welltensioned, in the following order:
Crankshaft pinion, camshaft pulley, coolant pump pulley, tensioner roller.
Tool
[5](respect the direction of fitting relative to the valve timing).
Put the tensioner roller in contact with the belt.
Tighten the nut
(2).
Pretensioning the belt.
Place tool [4]on the tensioned part "b"of the belt.
Slacken the screw (2).
Turn the roller (3)in the anticlockwise direction using the drive square, to obtain a value of:44 SEEM units. Tighten the nut (2)to 2 m.daN. Remove tools [1], [2]and [4].
Rotate the crankshaft 4 turnsin the normal direction of rotation.
IMPERATIVE:Never turn the crankshaft backwards.

ENGINECHECKING AND SETTING THE VALVE TIMING
Engine: NFU
Setting the valve timing.
Loosen the screw (2), remove the belt.
Loosen the six pulley screws (1)on the hubs(there should be a slight amount of friction between the screws and the pinions).
Check that the rollers (2)and (3)rotate freely.
NOTE:The belt bears three identification marks * (a), (b)and (c), facing its own teeth (1), (52) and (72)respectively.
*
(Identification marks = white paint lines on the back of the belt facing the corresponding teeth).
Refit the belt.
Line up mark (A)on the belt with groove (D)of the pinion (4).
Hold the belt against the pinion (4).

CHECKING AND SETTING THE VALVE TIMING
Engine: NFU
Setting the valve timing.
Turn the two pulleys (1)clockwise to the end of the slots.
With the belt strip (e)fully tensioned, place the belt over the pulley, first exhaust side, then inlet side, while
ensuring that marks (b)and (c)on the belt are aligned with marks (f)on the pulleys.
Hold the belt in this position, and engage it over the water pump pinion and the tensioner roller.
Fit the tool
[1]on the belt at (e).
Rotate the roller (2) (using tool [5])in an anticlockwise direction, to obtain:63 SEEM units.
Tighten the roller (2)to 2 m.daN.
Tighten the six screws (5)to 1m.daN.
ESSENTIAL: Check that:
The camshaft pulleys (1) are not at the end of the slots (by removing a screw). The markings on the belt are aligned with the markings on the crankshaft and camshaft pulleys.
If not, repeat the setting procedure.
