king the setting.
IMPERATIVE: Just prior to refitting, carry out the following tests.
Check that:
the rollers and the coolant pump operate freely
(no play and no tight spot).
there are no traces of oil
(from the crankshaft and camshaft sealing rings).
there is no leak of coolant fluid
(from the coolant pump).
the target track of the engine speed sensor
(14)is not damaged or scratched
(if necessary replace the defective components).

ks (continued).
Reposition the timing belt, belt at «e»well tensioned, in the following order:
Guide roller
(17).
Camshaft pulley
(16).
Fuel high pressure pump pulley

Tensioner roller
(19).
Remove the
5 mmdiameter peg at «d».
Adjusting the fitting tension of the belt.
Action the tensioner roller (19)to align the marks «f»and «g», avoiding detensioning the timing belt,
with the aid of a male hexagonal spanner, at
«c».
If this is not successful, repeat the operation to tension the belt.Hold the tensioner roller in position
(19).
Tighten the tensioner roller, tightening to
3,7 ±0,3 m.daN.
Check the position of the tensioner roller
(the alignment of the marks «f»and «g»should be correct).
Remove tools
[2]and [3].
Turn the crankshaft
