3. Confirm that the tensioner B centre and bolt centre are
positioned as shown in the illustration.
4. Apply tension on the timing belt by lifting tensioner B
in the direction of the arrow with a finger, and tension
the tension side until it is “tight”. Fix tensioner B in this
state by tightening the bolt.
NOTE
Make sure that the tensioner B shaft does not rotate
when tightening the bolt. If the shaft rotates, the timing
belt becomes too tense.
5. Connect the special tool (MB991704) to MUT-IIand the
battery.
6. Connect the special tool (MB991668) to MUT-II.
7. Rotate the crankshaft clockwise two turns, and align each
timing mark.
8. Select “Belt Tension Measurement” from the MUT-IImenu
screen.
9. Separate the special tool (MB991668) 10 to 20 mm from
the centre back between the sprockets (shown with an
arrow), and hold so that it is vertical (inclination within
±15_) in respect to the belt.
10. Lightly tap the section shown with an arrow with fingers,
and measure the belt vibration frequency. If the results
are deviated from the standard value, loosen the bolt,
tension the belt again, and then measure the vibration
frequency again. Repeat this step until the standard value
is attained. Tighten the bolt when the standard value
is attained.

"JAOIL PUMP SPROCKET INSTALLATION
1. Stop the rotation of the counter balance shaft in the same
manner as for removal.
2. Install the oil pump sprocket.
3. Apply the minimum required amount of engine oil on the
flange nut seat surface.
4. Tighten the flange nut at the specified torque 54±5
N•m.
"KAAUTO TENSIONER INSTALLATION
1. If the auto tensioner rod is in the extended state, set
it with the following steps.
(1) Set the rod of the auto tensioner into a vice so that
it is straight and not inclined.
(2) Press in the rod gradually with the vice, and align
the rod’s set hole A with the cylinder’s set hole B.
(3) Insert a wire (diameter 1.4 mm) into the set holes.
(4) Remove the auto tensioner from the vice.
2. Install the auto tensioner.
Do not remove the wire until the timing belt has been
installed.
"LATENSIONER PULLEY INSTALLATION
Set the tensioner pulley as shown in the illustration.
"MATIMING BELT INSTALLATION
1. Set the timing mark on the exhaust side camshaft sprocket
so that it is deviated by one tooth in the counterclockwise
direction from the timing mark on the rocker cover.
NOTE
Even if the sprocket and rocker cover timing marks are
aligned, the exhaust camshaft will return in the
counterclockwise direction by the force of the valve spring
and will stabilize at a position deviated by one tooth.

2. Align the timing mark of the intake side camshaft sprocket
to the timing mark on the rocker cover.
NOTE
Even when the sprocket and rocker cover timing marks
are aligned, the intake camshaft will rotate slightly in the
clockwise direction by the force of the valve spring and
will stabilize.
3. Shift and set the crankshaft sprocket timing mark by one
tooth in the counterclockwise direction in the same manner
as the exhaust side camshaft sprocket.
4. Align the oil pump sprocket timing marks.
5. When aligning the oil pump sprocket timing marks, remove
the cylinder block plug, and insert an 8 mm shaft diameter
Phillips driver into the plug hole, and confirm that the
driver shaft can be inserted by 60 mm or more. Do not
remove the Phillips driver until the timing belt has been
attached. If the driver shaft contacts the silent shaft and
only enters 20 to 25 mm, rotate the sprocket once, align
the timing marks again, and then confirm that the Phillips
driver can be inserted by 60 mm or more.
6. Remove the Phillips driver, and set the oil pump sprocket
at a position returned by one tooth in the counterclockwise
direction.
7. Attach the timing belt to the exhaust side camshaft
sprocket, and fix with a paper clip at the position shown
in the illustration.

8. Rotate the intake side camshaft sprocket in the
counterclockwise direction. Attach the belt at a position
where the timing mark is deviated by one tooth in the
counterclockwise direction, and then fix with a paper clip.
NOTE
Even if the belt is attached at a position deviated by
one tooth, the intake camshaft will rotate slightly in the
clockwise direction by the force of the valve spring and
will stabilize.
9. Rotate the exhaust side camshaft sprocket in the
clockwise direction, and confirm that the intake side
camshaft sprocket’s timing marks are aligned when the
timing marks are aligned.
10. Attach the timing belt in the order of the idler pulley,
oil pump sprocket and crankshaft sprocket.
NOTE
Attach the timing belt so that it is not deflected.
11. Attach the timing belt to the tensioner pulley.
NOTE
The timing belt can be attached easily to the tensioner
pulley by rotating the intake side camshaft sprocket slightly
in the counterclockwise direction.
12. Rotate the crankshaft sprocket slightly in the clockwise
direction, and remove the timing belt deflection on the
idler pulley side.
13. Confirm that the timing marks on the crankshaft, oil pump
and exhaust camshaft are each deviated by one tooth
in the counterclockwise direction.

14. Using the special tool, rotate the tensioner pulley in the
counterclockwise direction to tense the timing belt, and
then fix by temporarily tightening the tensioner fixing bolt.
NOTE
Remove the deflection of the timing belt between the
intake side and exhaust side camshafts.
15. Rotate the crankshaft in the clockwise direction, and set
the timing mark at the No. 1 cylinder compression top
dead centre.
16. Set the special tool, and screw it in until the wire inserted
when the auto tensioner was installed slightly moves.
17. Loosen the tensioner pulley fixing bolt.
Caution
The timing belt will loosen at this time due to the
rotation of the intake and exhaust camshafts, so make
sure that the timing belt does not deviate.
18. Rotate the special tool and torque wrench in the
counterclockwise direction to remove the timing belt
deflection.
19. From that state, return to the position where the torque
wrench scale reads 3.5 N•m, and then tighten the fixing
bolt.
20. Remove the special tool installed in step 16.
21. Rotate the crankshaft two rotations in the clockwise
direction, and let stand for approx. 15 minutes.
22. Confirm whether the wire inserted when the auto tensioner
was installed can be pulled out easily. If it can be removed
easily, the belt tension is appropriate, so remove the wire.
If the auto tensioner rod’s protrusion amount is at the
standard value, the tension is appropriate.
Standard value: 3.8 - 4.5 mm
23. If the wire cannot be pulled out easily, repeat steps 16
to 21, and tense the belt to the appropriate tension.
Caution
When the crankshaft bolt has been rotated in the
counterclockwise direction, always check the crank-
shaft bolt’s tightening torque. If loosen, re-tighten.
