REMOVAL
1. Remove engine undercover. Refer to
EXT-39, "FRONT UNDER COVER : Removal and Installation".
2. Remove wheel and tire (RH) using a power tool. Refer to WT-48, "
Removal and Installation".
3. Partially remove the fender protector (RH). Refer to EXT-38, "
Removal and Installation".
4. Loosen the lock nut and then release the belt tension by turning the adjusting bolt.
5. Remove the drive belt.
INSTALLATION
1. Pull the idler pulley in the loosening direction, and then temporarily tighten the lock nut to the following
torque.
NOTE:
Do not move the lock nut from the temporary tightened position. Go to step 2.
2. Install the drive belt on each pulley. CAUTION:
• Check that there is no engine oil, grease, or engine coolant, etc. in pulley grooves.
• Check that the belt seats securely inside the groove on each pulley.
3. Adjust drive belt tension by turning the adjusting bolt. Refer to MA-14, "
DRIVE BELT : Adjustment".
CAUTION:
• Perform the belt tension adjustment with the lock nut temporarily tightened to the torque specifi-
cation listed in step 1 which preven ts the idler pulley from tilting.
• When checking immediately after in stallation, first adjust it to the specified value. Then, after
turning crankshaft two turns or more, readjust to the specified value to avoid variation in deflec-
tion between pulleys.
4. Tighten the lock nut to final tightening specification.

5. Check that belt tension is within the specification using suitable tool. Refer to EM-116, "Drive Belt".
DRIVE BELT : InspectionINFOID:0000000012432250
• Inspection should be done only when engine is cold or over 30
minutes after the engine is stopped.
• Visually check belt for wear, damage, and cracks on inside and edges.
• Turn crankshaft pulley clockwise twice, and check that the tension on all pulleys equalizes before testing.
• When measuring deflection, apply 98.1 N (10 kg, 22 lb) at the ( ) marked point.
• Measure the belt tension and frequency using suitable tool at the ( ) marked point.
CAUTION:
• When checking immediately after installation, first ad just it to the specified value. Then, after turning
crankshaft two turns or more, readjust to the speci fied value to avoid variation in deflection between
pulleys.
DRIVE BELT : AdjustmentINFOID:0000000012432251
CAUTION:
• When belt is replaced with new one, adjust belt tension to the value for “New belt,” because new belt will not fully seat in the pulley groove.
• When tension of the belt being used exceeds “Limit,” adjust it to the value for “After adjusted.”
• When installing a belt, check it is co rrectly engaged with the pulley groove.
• Do not allow engine oil or engine coolant to get on the belt.
• Do not twist or bend the belt strongly.
1. Partially remove the fender protector (RH) front side clip. Refer to EXT-38, "
Removal and Installation".
2. Loosen lock nut (A) and temporarily set to the following torque.
3. Adjust the belt tension by turning the adjusting bolt. Refer to EM-116, "
Drive Belt".

WARNING:
• Be careful not to burn yoursel
f, as engine oil may be hot.
• When checking engine oil pressure, sh ift selector should be in the "P" (Park) or "N" (Neutral) posi-
tion, and apply parking brake securely.
1. Check engine oil level.
2. Disconnect harness connector at oil pressure switch. Remove oil pressure switch using suitable tool and install suitable tools
(A/B).
CAUTION:
Do not drop or shock oil pressure switch.
3. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
4. Check engine oil pressure with engine running under no-load. NOTE:
• When engine oil temperature is low, engine oil pressure becomes high.
• If difference is extreme, check oil passage and oil pump for engine oil leaks.
5. After the inspections, install oil pressure switch as follows:
a. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to oil pressure switch and engine.
b. Apply liquid gasket and tighten oil pressure switch to specification. Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent. Refer to GI-22, "
Recommended Chemical Products and
Sealants".

Do not use a wire brush for cleaning.
• Checking and adjusting spark plug gap is not required between change intervals. Do not adjust the gap; replace the spark plug as
necessary if out of specification.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Do not drop or shock the spark plug.
*: Always check with the Parts Department for the latest parts information.
CAUTION:
Always tighten the spark plug to specified torque to align the orie ntation of electrodes. The ground
electrode of a genuine spark plug is positioned in the area of maximum ignitability by tightening to the
specified torque. When replacing spark plugs, use genuine spark pl ugs of which the ground electrode
is adjusted.

BALANCING WHEELS (ADHESIVE WEIGHT TYPE)
Preparation Before Adjustment
Remove inner and outer balance weights from the wheel and tire. Using releasing agent, remove double-faced
adhesive tape from the wheel and tire.
CAUTION:
• Be careful not to scratch the wheel and tire during removal.
• After removing double-faced adh esive tape, wipe clean all traces of releasing agent from the wheel
and tire.
Wheel Balance Adjustment
CAUTION:
• DO NOT use center hole cone-type clamping machines to hold the wheel during tire removal/installa-
tion or balancing or damage to the wheel paint, cladding or chrome may result. Use only rim-type or
universal lug-type clamping machines to hold the wheel during servicing.
• If a balancer machine has an adhesive weight mode se tting, select the adhesive weight mode setting and
skip Step 2 below. If a balancer machine only has the clip -on (rim flange) weight mode setting, follow Step 2
to calculate the correct size adhesive weight.
1. Set wheel and tire on balancer machine using the center hole as a guide. Start the balancer machine. Oil capacity
