IMPERATIVE: Just before refitting, carry out the checks below.
Check that the rollers (16), (20)and (19)and the coolant pump (14)can turn freely (without play
and without any tight spot).
Check that there are no signs of oil leaks (from the crankshaft and camshaft seals).
Check that there are no signs of coolant leaks (from the coolant pump).
Replace components that are faulty (if necessary).
Refitting.
Reposition the timimg belt on the crankshaft pinion (24).
Hold the timing belt (22)in position, using tool [4].
Tighten the screws (15)and (17)by hand.

Reposition the timimg belt, strip «j»well tensioned, in the following order:
- Guide roller (19).
- Camshaft pulley (18).
- Guide roller (16).
- Camshaft pulley (23).
- Tensioner roller (20).
NOTE:If necessary, turn the pulleys (23)and (18)slightly anti-clockwise (the offset must not be
more than one tooth).
Remove the tool [4].
Using a hexagonal spanner, rotate the tensioner roller (20)anti-clockwise.
Position the index "l"facing the notch "k".
Tighten the screw (21) : 2,5 ± 0,2.
Remove the screws (15)and (17)from the pulleys (23)and (18)in order to check that the screws
(15)and (17)are not at the end of slots.
IMPERATIVE: If the screws (15) and (17) are at the end of slots, restart the operations to refit
the timing belt.
