3. The back plate on the pump seats against the bot-
tom of the bore in the cylinder block. When the
pump is correctly installed, the flange on the pump
will not touch the cylinder block.
4. Measure the idler gear to pump drive gear back-

replace the oil pump.
5. If the adjoining gear moves when you measure the
backlash, the reading will be incorrect.

VALVE TIMING
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TIMING VERIFICATION
1. Remove the cylinder head cover (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/CYLINDER HEAD/CYLINDER HEAD COVER(S) -
REMOVAL).
2. Remove fuel injector from cylindernumber 1 (Refer to 14 - FUEL SYSTEM/FUEL INJECTION/FUEL INJECTOR

4. Using a 8 in.x 1/4 in. dowel rod inserted into cylinder number 1, rock the crankshaft back and forth to verify
piston number 1 is at TDC.
5. With cylinder number still at TDC, inspect the keyway on the crankshaft gear for proper alignment (12 o’clock
position).
6. If the keyway is not at 12 o’clock position replace the crankshaft gear assembly.
7. If the keyway is at 12 o’clock position, remove front gear cover and verify timing mark alignment between the
camshaft gear and crankshaft gear, if not aligned inspect keyway on camshaft gear.
