The illustration shows the relationship between the matching mark
on each timing chain and that on the corresponding sprocket, with
the components installed.
1. Install the crankshaft sprocket and the oil pump drive related parts with the following procedure:
a. Install the crankshaft sprocket (1), the oil pump drive chain (2), and the oil pump sprocket (3) at the same time.
• Install the crankshaft sprocket (1) so that its invalid gear area (A) is towards the back of the engine.
• Install the oil pump sprocket (3) so that its hexagonal surface
faces (B) the front of engine.
NOTE:
There is no matching mark in the oil pump drive related parts.
b. Hold the top of the oil pump shaft using the TORX socket (size: E8), and then tighten the oil pump sprocket nuts. 1 : Timing chain

• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
- Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leak-
age at connection points.
- Start engine. With engine speed increased, che ck again for fuel leakage at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration. NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal/installation, slack in the guide may
generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop after
hydraulic pressure rises.
• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, or any oil/fluids including engine oil and
engine coolant.
• Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary.
Summary of the inspection items:
*: Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.
Inspection of Camshaft Sprocket (INT) Oil Groove
CAUTION:
• Perform this inspection only when DTC P0011 is de tected in self-diagnostic results of CONSULT-III
and it is directed according to inspect ion procedure of EC section. Refer to EC-133, " Diagnosis Pro-
cedure " .
• Check when engine is cold so as to pr event burns from the splashing engine oil.
1. Check engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, " Inspection " .
2. Perform the following procedure so as to prevent the engine from being unintentionally started while
checking.
a. Release the fuel pressure. Refer to EC-498, " Inspection " .
b. Remove intake manifold. Refer to EM-28, " Exploded View " .
c. Disconnect ignition coil and injector harness connectors. Refer to EM-46, " Exploded View " .
3. Remove intake valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to EM-49, " Exploded View " .
4. Crank engine, and then make sure that engine oil comes out from intake valve timing control solenoid valve hole (A). End
crank after checking.
WARNING:
Be careful not to touch rotating parts (drive belts, idler pul-
ley, and crankshaft pulley, etc.).
CAUTION:
• Prevent splashing by using a shop cloth so as to prevent
the worker from injury from engine oil an d 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 engi ne oil off immediately if it is splashed.

HOW TO SELECT MAIN BEARING
When New Cylinder Block and Crankshaft Are Used
1. “Main Bearing Selection Table” rows correspond to main bearing housing grade on left side of cylinder block.
• If there is a corrected stamp mark (B) on cylinder block, use it as a correct reference.
2. Apply main journal diameter grade stamped on crankshaft front side to column in the “Main Bearing Selection Table”.
3. Read the symbol at the cross point of selected row and column in the “Main Bearing Selection Table”.
4. Apply the symbol obtained to the “Main B earing Grade Table” to select main bearing.
NOTE:
Service part is available as a set of both upper and lower.
When Cylinder Block and Crankshaft Are Reused 1. Measure the dimensions of the cylinder block ma in bearing housing inner diameter and crankshaft main
journal diameter individually. Refer to EM-103, " Inspection " .
2. Apply the measured dimension to t he “Main Bearing Selection Table”.
3. Read the symbol at the cross point of selected row and column in the “Main Bearing Selection Table”.
4. Apply the symbol obtained to the “Main B earing Grade Table” to select main bearing.

NOTE:
There is no fuel return path.
4. With the sleeve side of quick connector release facing quick connector, install quick connector release onto fuel tube.
5. Insert quick connector release into quick connector until sleeve contacts and goes no further. Hold quick connector release on
that position.
CAUTION:
Inserting quick connector re lease hard will not disconnect
quick connector. Hold qui ck connector release where it
contacts and goes no further.
6. Draw and pull out quick connector straight from fuel tube. CAUTION:
• Pull quick connector holding (A) position.
• Do not pull with lateral force applied. O-ring inside quick connector may be damaged.
• Prepare container and cloth be forehand as fuel will leak out.
• Avoid fire and sparks.
• Keep parts away from heat source. Especially, be careful when welding is performed around
them.
• Do not expose parts to battery electrolyte or other acids.
• Do not bend or twist connection between quick co nnector and fuel feed hose during installation/
removal.
• To keep clean the connecting portion and to avoid dam-
age and foreign materials, cover them completely with
plastic bags or something similar.
7. Remove intake manifold. Refer to EM-141 .

• Check timing chain and oil pump drive chain for cracks (A) and any
excessive wear (B) at the roller links of timing chain.
• Replace timing chain and/or oil pump drive chain if necessary.
INSTALLATION NOTE:
The figure shows the relationship between the matching mark on
each timing chain and that on the corresponding sprocket, with the
components installed.
1. Make sure that crankshaft key points are aligned.
NOTE:
*: There are two outer grooves in camshaft spro cket (INT). The wider one is a matching mark.
2. If the timing chain tension guide (front cover si de) is removed, install it to the front cover.
CAUTION:
Check the joint condition by sound or feeling.
3. Install crankshaft sprocket (2), oil pump sprocket (3) and oil pump drive chain (1).
• Install it by aligning matching marks on each sprocket and oil pump drive chain.
• If these matching marks are not aligned, rotate the oil pump
shaft slightly to correct the position.
CAUTION:
Check matching mark position of each sprocket after
installing the oil pump drive chain. PBIC3171J
