and parts related to piston and valves may be 
damaged.
 
1) Remove timing chain cover referring to “Timing 
Chain Cover Removal and Installation”.
2) By turning crankshaft, align camshafts and 
crankshaft at specific position as follows.
a) Align both intake and exhaust camshaft timing 
sprocket marks (1) with notches (2) of cylinder 
head respectively.
b) Position crankshaft sprocket key (3) at upside of 
crankshaft as shown in figure.
3) Remove timing chain tensioner adjuster assembly 
(5).4) Remove timing chain tensioner (6).
5) Remove timing chain No.1 guide (7).
6) Remove timing chain (8) with crankshaft timing 
sprocket (9).
