15. Cut liquid gasket by prying the position ( ) shown, and then
remove the front cover.
CAUTION:
• Be careful not to damage the mating surface.
• A more adhesive liquid gasket is applied compared to pre-
vious types when shipped, so it should not be forced off
the position not specified.
16. Remove front oil seal from front cover. • Lift up front oil seal using a suitable tool.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage front cover.
17. Push in timing chain tensioner plunger.
18. Insert a stopper pin (A) into the body hole to retain the plunger in collapsed position.
NOTE:
Use approximately 1.5 mm (0.059 in) diameter hard metal pin as
a stopper pin.
19. Remove timing chain tensioner (1).
20. Remove timing chain slack guide (2), timing chain tension guide (3) and timing chain (1).
CAUTION:
Never rotate each crankshaft and camshaft individually
while timing chain is re moved. It causes interference
between valve and piston.

21. Press stopper tab (A) in the direction shown to push the timing
chain slack guide (B) toward ti ming chain tensioner (for oil
pump) (1).
• The slack guide (B) is released by pressing the stopper tab
(A). As a result, the slack guide (B) can be moved.
22. Insert stopper pin (D) into tensioner body hole (C) to secure tim- ing chain slack guide (B).

(0.047 in) as a stopper pin.
23. Remove timing chain tensioner (for oil pump), if necessary.
24. Hold the WAF part of oil pump shaft (A), and then loosen the oil pump sprocket bolt and remove them. CAUTION:
• Secure the oil pump shaft with the WAF part (A).
• Never loosen the oil pump sprocket bolt by tightening theoil pump drive chain.
CAUTION:
Never use an impact or other power tool to remove the
engine oil pump sprocket bolt. If an impact or other power
tool is used to remove the e ngine oil pump sprocket bolt,
the crankshaft sprocket may break.
25. Remove crankshaft sprocket, oil pump sprocket and oil pump drive chain as a set, if necessary.
26. Remove timing chain tension guide (front cover side) from front cover, if necessary.

TIMING CHAIN
• 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 pum p 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.

Never use an impact or other power tool to remo
ve the engine oil pump sprocket bolt. If an impact
or other power tool is used to remove the en gine oil pump sprocket bolt, the crankshaft sprocket
may break.
4. Hold the WAF part of oil pump shaft (A), and then tighten the oil pump sprocket bolt.
CAUTION:
• Secure the oil pump shaft with the WAF part (A).
• Never loosen the oil pump sprocket bolt by tightening theoil pump drive chain.
CAUTION:
Never use an impact or other power tool to remove the
engine oil pump sprocket bolt. If an impact or other power
tool is used to remove the e ngine oil pump sprocket bolt,
the crankshaft sprocket may break.
5. Install chain tensioner (for oil pump) (1). 1. Fix the plunger at the most compressed position using a
stopper pin (A), and then install it.
2. Securely pull out ( ) the stopper pin after installing the chain tensioner (for oil pump).
3. Check matching mark position of oil pump drive chain and each sprocket again.
