40. Use a scraper to remove all of the old Silicone RTV Sealant from
the front timing chain case and opposite mating surfaces.
CAUTION:
Do not damage the mating surfaces.
INSTALLATION
1. Install dowel pins (right and left) into front timing chain case up
to a point close to taper in order to shorten protrusion length.
NOTE:
Be sure to place the dowel pins in original hole locations in the
front timing chain case.
2. Install the new front oil seal on the front timing chain case. Apply new engine oil to the oil seal edges.
NOTE:
Install it so that each seal lip is oriented as shown.
a. Install the new front oil seal so that it becomes flush with the face with front timing chain case using suitable tool.
CAUTION:
Press fit straight and avoid causi ng burrs or tilting the oil
seal.
NOTE:
Make sure the garter spring is in position and seal lip is not
inverted.

c. Tighten intake valve timing control solenoid valve cover bolts in numerical order as shown.
11. Apply liquid gasket and install the water pump cover, if removed. • Use Genuine Silicone RTV Sealant or equivalent. Refer to GI-21, "Recommended Chemical Products
and Sealants".
12. Install crankshaft pulley and tighten the bolt in two steps. • Lubricate thread and seat surface of the bolt with new engineoil.
• Apply a paint mark for the second step of angle tightening.
13. Remove Tool and install the access plate. CAUTION:
Do not damage the ring gear teeth, or the signa l plate teeth behind the ring gear, when removing
the Tool.
14. Rotate crankshaft pulley in normal direction (clock wise when viewed from front) to confirm it turns
smoothly.
15. Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of removal.

• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels incl
uding engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-11, "FOR USA AND CANADA : Fluids and Lubricants"
.
• 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, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration. NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner dr ops after removal and 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 leak age of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids including
engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec- ified level, if necessary.

CAUTION:
• After removing timing chain, do not turn the crankshaft and camsh aft separately, or the valves will
strike the pistons.
• When installing camshafts, chain tensioners, oil seal s, or other sliding parts, lubricate contacting
surfaces with new engine oil.
• Apply new engine oil to bolt threads and seat surfaces when inst alling camshaft sprockets, camshaft
brackets, and crankshaft pulley.
