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 anti-clockwise direction, to obtain: 63 SEEMunits.
Tighten the roller (2)to 2 m.daN.
Tighten the six screws (5)to 1 m.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.

Rotate the engine by four turnsin the normal direction
(do not turn backwards).
Peg the flywheel [2].
Loosen the six screws (5), while ensuring there is still a slight amount of friction with the pulley.
Peg the camshaft hubs using pegs [3]and [4].
WARNING: In certain cases, it may be necessary to slightly turn the camshaft using the hub fixing screw.
Fit the tool [1].
Loosen the tensioner roller screw (2).
Rotate the roller (2)
(using tool [5])in an anti-clockwise direction to obtain: 37 SEEMunits.
Tighten the tensioner roller screw (2)to 2 m.daN.
Tighten the six pulley screws (1)to 1 m.daN.
Remove the tools.

CHECKING AND SETTING THE VALVE TIMING
Engine: NFU
Refitting.
Fit the
(new)timing belt in position, in the following order:
- Inlet camshaft pulley, exhaust camshaft pulley, guide roller, crankshaft pulley, position tool [5],
coolant pump pulley, dynamic tensioner roller.
Remove tools [1], [2a], [2b]and [4].
Overtension on the belt.
Turn the tensioner roller (7)with the aid of a hexagonal spanner at «a».
Bring the index «c»to position «d», to tension the belt to the maximum of the interval indicated.
Hold the tensioner roller, using tool [4].
Tighten the fixing nut of the tensioner roller, tightening to 1 m.daN.
Turn the crankshaft by 4 rotations
(normal direction of rotation).
IMPERATIVE: Never make the crankshaft rotate backwards.
Make sure that the timing is correctly set by refitting the pegs [1], [2a]and [2b].
Remove the pegs [1], [2a], [2b]and[4].

ENGINECHECKING AND SETTING THE VALVE TIMING
Engine: NFU
Adjusting the fitting tension of the timing belt.
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 «e».
WARNING: The index «c» must not go beyond the notch «e». If it should do this, restart the
timing belt tensioning operation.
Hold the tensioner roller in this position with the aid of a hexagonal spanner.
Tighten the tensioner roller fixing nut to 2.2 ± 0.2 m.daN.
IMPERATIVE: The tensioner roller must not rotate during the tightening of its fixing. If it
does, restart the timing belt tensioning operation.
Refitting.
Refit the timing covers, the crankshaft pulley, the auxiliaries drive belt
(see corresponding operation).
Complete the refitting.
IMPERATIVE: Carry out the operations that are necessary following a reconnection of the
battery
(see corresponding operation).
