ENGINE MECHANICAL — Timing Belt

10. INSTALL TIMING BELT

(a) Install the timing belt to the intake camshaft timing pulley, the exhaust camshaft timing pulley and then the idler pulley.

(b) Check that the belt has tension as shown in the illustration.

(c) Loosen the idler pulley mount bolt until the pulley is moved slightly by the spring tension.

(d) Torque the idler pulley mount bolt.
Torque: 500 kg-cm (36 ft-lb, 49 N-m)

HINT: Check that the timing belt tension at A is equal to that at B.
If not, readjust with the idler pulley.

(e) Turn the crankshaft pulley two revolutions clockwise from TDC to TDC.

(f) Check that the matchmarks on the camshaft timing pulleys are aligned with those on the No.2 timing belt cover.

If the marks do not align, remove the timing belt and reinstall it.

11. CHECK TIMING BELT TENSION

(a) Turn both the intake and exhaust camshaft pulleys inward at the same time to slacken the timing belt at position A.
