)
- Align the timing marks on the crankshaft sprocket "B" and counterbalancer shaft sprocket with the corresponding timing marks on the oil pump case.
- Install the timing belt "B" on the crankshaft sprocket "B" and counterbalancer shaft sprocket. There should be no slack in the tension section of the belt.
)
- Make sure that the tensioner "B" center is positioned as shown in the drawing relative to the mounting bolt center.
)
- Lift the tensioner "B" with fingers to move it in the direction of the arrow until the tension section of the timing belt becomes taut. While keeping the tensioner "B" in this position, tighten its bolt.
NOTE: When the bolt is tightened, prevent the tensioner "B" shaft from turning. If the shaft
turns, the belt will be overtightened.
- Make sure that the timing marks on the oil pump case and those of the sprockets are all aligned with each other.
)
- Push a central point of the timing belt "B" tension section lightly with an index to see if it deflects 5 - 7 mm.
)
- Clean and then degrease the crankshaft sprocket, sprocket fitting surface of the crankshaft, and crankshaft sensing blade. Install the crankshaft sprocket and crankshaft sensing blade on the crankshaft.
- Clean the bolt hole in the crankshaft, and then washer.
- Apply a necessary minimum amount of oil to the threads and seating surface of the crankshaft bolt.
- Hold the drive plate using the special tool Fly wheel stopper (MD998781).
- Tighten the crankshaft bolt to a torque of 167 N·m.
)
- Prevent the counterbalancer shaft from rotating in the same method as in the removal procedure.
- Install the oil pump sprocket.
- Apply a thin coat of engine oil to the seating surface of the nut.
- Tighten the flange nut to 54 ± 5 N·m.
)
- If the auto-tensioner rod remains in its fully extended position, reset it to the retracted position as follows:
- Clamp the auto-tensioner in a vise at right angles to the jaws.
- Push in the rod little by little with the vise until the set hole A in the rod is aligned with the set hole "B" in the cylinder.
- Insert a piece of wire (1.4 mm diameter) into the set holes.
- Remove the auto-tensioner from the vise.
)
- Install the auto-tensioner in position. Leave the wire installed until the auto-tensioner is completely installed.
)
Install the tensioner pulley with its holes aligned as shown in the drawing.
- Bring the timing mark on the exhaust camshaft sprocket to a point one sprocket tooth away from the timing mark on the rocker cover in the counterclockwise direction.
NOTE: If the timing marks were aligned, the exhaust camshaft would be turned counterclockwise
by one sprocket tooth and stay there by the force of the valve springs.
)
- Align the timing mark on the intake camshaft sprocket with that on the rocker cover.
NOTE: The intake camshaft will be turned slightly clockwise from where the timing marks are
aligned by the force of the valve springs and stay there.
)
- Bring the timing mark on the crankshaft sprocket to a point one sprocket tooth away from the mating timing mark in the counterclockwise direction like in the operation with the exhaust camshaft sprocket.
)
- Align the timing mark on the oil pump sprocket with that on the cylinder block.
- Remove the plug from the cylinder block.
- Insert a crosspoint screwdriver with a shank diameter of 8 mm through the plug hole. If it can be inserted 60 mm or more, the sprocket is in the correct phase. If the insertion depth is up to 20 - 25 mm, the screwdriver is blocked by the counterbalancer shaft. Then turn the oil pump sprocket one turn and realign the timing marks. Then check that the screwdriver can be inserted 60 mm or more. Keep the screwdriver inserted until installation of timing belt is finished.
)
- Turn the oil pump sprocket counterclockwise by one sprocket tooth.
)
- Install the timing belt on the exhaust camshaft sprocket, and hold it in place with a paper clip at the point indicated in the drawing.
)
- Turn the intake camshaft sprocket counterclockwise to bring the timing mark on it one sprocket tooth away from the mating timing mark in the counterclockwise direction. Then install the timing belt on the sprocket and hold it in place with a paper clip.
NOTE: The timing marks will be aligned when the belt is installed since the intake camshaft
is turned slightly clockwise by the force of the valve springs.
)
- Turn the exhaust camshaft sprocket clockwise to align the timing marks, and make sure that the intake camshaft sprocket timing marks are also aligned.
)
- Install the timing belt on the idler pulley, oil pump sprocket, and crankshaft sprocket, in this order.
NOTE: There should be no slack in the installed portion of the belt.
)
- Install the timing belt on the tensioner pulley.
NOTE: Turning slightly the intake camshaft sprocket counterclockwise will facilitate installation
of the belt on the tensioner pulley.
)
- Turn slightly the crankshaft sprocket clockwise to take up the slack in the idler pulley portion of the timing belt.
- Check that each of the timing marks on the crankshaft, oil pump, and exhaust camshaft sprockets is one sprocket tooth away from its mating timing mark in the counterclockwise direction.
)
- Turn the tensioner pulley counterclockwise using the special tool Tension pulley socket wrench (MD998767) to give tension to the belt and hold the tensioner in position by temporarily tightening the tensioner lock bolt.
NOTE: Take up the slack in the belt portion between the intake and exhaust camshaft sprockets.
- Turn the crankshaft clockwise to make the timing mark align with the No.1 cylinder top dead center mark.
)
- Install the special tool Set screw (MD998738) and turn down the tool until the wire (inserted in the auto-tensioner when it was installed) can be moved freely.
- Loosen the tensioner pulley lock bolt.
)
CAUTION- Turn the torque wrench attached to the special tool Tension pulley socket wrench (MD998767) counterclockwise until the slack in the timing belt is taken up.
- Turn the torque wrench clockwise from the position of step 16 until the torque wrench reading becomes 3.5 N·m, then tighten the tensioner pulley lock bolt.
- Remove the special tool Set screw (MD998738) that was installed in step 14.
- Turn the crankshaft clockwise two turns, then let it alone for approx. 15 minutes.
)
- Check that the wire (inserted in the auto-tensioner when it was installed) can be moved freely. If the wire can be pulled freely, the belt tensioner is adjusted properly. Remove the wire. At that time, check that the auto-tensioner rod extends by the specified amount.
Standard value: 3.8 -
4.5 mm
CAUTION- If the wire cannot be pulled out freely, perform the steps 14 through 18 again to make the belt tension proper.
