2. Temporarily install idler pulley and tension spring.
(a) Install the idler pulley with the bolt. Do not tighten the bolt yet.
(b) Install the tension spring.
(c) Push the pulley toward the left as far as it will go and tighten the bolt.





3. Temporarily install timing belt.

NOTICE: The engine should be cold.

(a) Using the crankshaft pulley bolt, turn the crankshaft I and align the timing marks of the crankshaft timing pulley and oil pump body.
(b) Remove any oil or water on the crankshaft timing pulley and idler pulley, and keep them clean.
(c) Install the timing belt on the crankshaft timing pulley and idler pulley.





HINT: (When re-using timing belt)
Align the matchmarks of the crankshaft timing pulley and timing belt, and install the belt with the arrow pointing in the direction of engine revolution.





4. Install timing belt guide.
Slide on the timing belt guide, facing the cup side outward.





5. Install No.1 timing belt cover.
Install the timing belt cover with the three bolts.
6. Install crankshaft pulley.
(a) Align the pulley set key with the key groove of the pulley, and slide on the pulley.
(b) Temporarily install the pulley bolt.





(c) Using SST 09213-14010 and 09330-00021, install the pulley bolt.

Torque: 118 N.m (1,200 kgf.cm, 87 ft.lbf)

7. Install camshaft timing pulley.
(a) Align the camshaft knock pin with the knock pin groove of the pulley, and slide on the pulley.
(b) Temporarily install the timing pulley bolt





(c) Hold the hexagon wrench head portion of the camshaft with a wrench, and tighten the timing pulley bolt.

Torque: 59 N.m (600 kgf.cm, 43 ft.lbf)

8. Set No.1 cylinder to TDC/Compression.





(a) Turn the crankshaft pulley, and align its groove with "0" timing mark of the No.1 timing belt cover.





(b) Turn the hexagon wrench head portion of the camshaft, and align the hole of the camshaft timing pulley with the timing mark of the bearing cap.

9. Install timing belt.





HINT: (When re-using timing belt)
^ Check that the matchmark on the timing belt matches the end of the No.1 timing belt cover. If the matchmark does not align, shift the meshing of the timing belt and crankshaft timing pulley until they align.





^ Align the matchmarks of the timing belt and camshaft timing pulley.

(a) Remove any oil or water on the camshaft timing pulley, and keep it clean.





(b) Install the timing belt, checking the tension between the crankshaft timing pulley and camshaft timing pulley.

10. Check valve timing.





(a) Loosen the idler pulley bolt 1/2 turn.





(b) Slowly turn the crankshaft pulley two revolutions from TDC to TDC.

NOTICE: Always turn the crankshaft clockwise.





(c) Check that each pulley aligns with the timing marks as shown. If the timing marks do not align, remove the timing belt and reinstall it.





(d) Tighten the idler pulley bolt.

Torque: 37 N.m (375 kgf.cm, 27 ft.lbf)





11. Check timing belt deflection (reference).
Check that there is belt tension at the position indicated in the illustration. If the deflection is not as specified, adjust with the idler pulley.

Deflection: 5 - 6 mm (0.20-0.24 in.) at 20 N (2 kgf, 4.4 lbf)





12. Install No.2 and No.3 timing belt covers.
Install the No.2 , No.3 timing belt covers and engine wire bracket with the six bolts.
13. Install cylinder head cover.
14. Install spark plugs.

Torque: 18 N.m (180 kgf.cm, 13 ft.lbf)





15. Install RH Engine mounting insulator.
Install the mounting insulator with the through bolt, bolt and two nuts.

Torque:
Through bolt 87 N.m (890 kgf.cm, 64 ft.lbf)
Bolt 64 N.m (650 kgf.cm, 47 ft.lbf)
Nut 52 N.m (530 kgf.cm, 38 ft.lbf)





16. Install RH engine mounting stay.
