WARNING:
Be sure to perform this step when the engine is stopped.
• Make sure that the indicator (notch on fixed side) of drive belt auto-tensioner is within the possible use range
(A).
NOTE:
• Check the drive belt auto-tensioner indication when the engine is cold.
• When new drive belt is installed, the indicator (notch on fixed side) should be within the range (B).
• Visually check entire drive belt for wear, damage or cracks.
• If the indicator (notch on fixed side) is out of the possible use range or belt is damaged, replace drive belt.
Tension AdjustmentINFOID:0000000001702476
Belt tension is not necessary, as it is automatically adjusted by drive belt auto-tensioner.

4. Clean the mating area of intake valve timing control solenoid
valve. Insert a clean shop cloth (with no oil adhesion) into the oil
hole (A) of the cylinder head.
5. Install engine mounting bracket (RH), engine mounting insulator,
and torque rod (RH) under the Step 4 condition. (With intake
valve timing control solenoid valve removed, and a shop cloth
inserted into the oil hole.) Refer to EM-72, "
Component".
6. Crank engine, and then make sure that engine oil comes out
from intake valve timing control solenoid valve hole (A). End crank after checking.
• Check engine oil leakage by oil amount adhered to the waste inserted into the oil hole.
WARNING:
Be careful not to touch rotating parts (drive belts, idler pulley, and crankshaft pulley, etc.).
CAUTION:
• Do not perform cranking without installing right engine mount bracket, right engine mount insu-
lator, and right torque rod.
• Prevent splashing by using a shop cloth so as to prevent the worker from injury from engine oil
and so as to prevent engine oil contamination.
• Prevent splashing by using a shop cloth so as to prevent engine oil from being splashed to
engine and vehicle. Especially, be careful not to apply engine oil to rubber parts of drive belts,
engine mounting insulator, etc. Wipe engine oil off immediately if it is splashed.
7. Perform the following inspection if engine oil does not come out from intake valve timing control solenoid
valve oil hole of the cylinder head.
• Remove oil filter (for intake valve timing control), and then clean it. Refer to EM-76, "
Component".
• Clean oil groove between oil strainer and intake valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to LU-5
.
8. Remove components between intake valve timing control solenoid valve and camshaft sprocket (INT),
and then check each oil groove for clogging.
• Clean oil groove if necessary. Refer to LU-5
.
9. Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of removal

Perform inspection as follows after removal, installation or replacement of camshaft or valve-related parts, or if
there is unusual engine conditions regarding valve clearance.
1. Remove rocker cover. Refer to EM-30
.
2. Measure the valve clearance with the following procedure:
a. Set No. 1 cylinder at TDC of its compression stroke.
