1.5 mm hexagon wrench through the holes to keep the
setting position of the push rod.
(d) Release the press.
(e) Temporarily install the tensioner with the 2 bolts. Alter-
nately tighten the 2 bolts.
Torque: 27 NVm (280 kgfVcm, 20 ftVlbf)
NOTICE:
Be sure to tighten the bolts uniformly. Installing the ten-
sioner at an angle may cause failure of its proper operation.
(f) Remove the 1.5 mm hexagon wrench from the tensioner.
(g) Turn the crankshaft 2 revolutions slowly, then align the
timing mark of the crankshaft timing pulley with the oil
pump body.
NOTICE:
Always turn the crankshaft clockwise.
(h) Check that the timing marks of the RH and LH timing pul-
leys are aligned with the timing marks of the timing belt
No. 3 cover as shown in the illustration.
If the marks are not aligned, remove the timing belt and reinstall
it.
(i) Remove the crankshaft pulley bolt.
91. INSTALL TIMING BELT GUIDE NO.2
(a) Install the timing belt guide with the cup side facing the en-
gine front.
