Timing Belt Installation

INSTALLATION OF TIMING BELT

1. Install camshaft timing pulley.

(b) Temporarily install the timing pulley bolt.





(c) Hold the hexagonal 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)





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





2. Install crankshaft timing pulley.
(a) Align the pulley set key with the key groove of the pulley.
(b) Slide on the timing pulley, facing the flange side inward.
(c) Using the crankshaft pulley bolt, turn the crankshaft and align the timing marks of the crankshaft timing pulley and oil pump body.





3. 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.

4. Install timing belt.

NOTICE: The engine should be cold.





HINT: If reusing the timing belt, align the points marked during removal, and install the belt with the arrow pointing in the direction of engine revolution.

5. Check valve timing and timing belt tension.





(a) Loosen the timing belt idler pulley mounting bolt.





(b) Temporarily install the crank pulley bolt and turn the crankshaft two revolutions from TDC to TDC.

HINT: Always turn the crankshaft clockwise.





(c) Check the valve timing.
Check that each pulley aligns with the marks as shown in the illustration.





(d) Tighten the timing belt idler pulley mounting bolt.

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

(e) Remove the temporarily installed crank pulley bolt.






(f) (Reference) Measure the timing belt deflection as shown in the illustration.

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





(g) If the measured value is not within standard, readjust with the idler pulley.





6. Install timing belt guide.
Install the guide, facing the cup side outward.





7. Install the timing belt covers.
(a) Install the timing belt cover with the three bolts.
(b) Install the No.2, No.3 timing belt covers and engine wire bracket with the six bolts.

Torque: 7.4 N.m (75 kgf.cm, 65 in.lbf)





8. 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)

9. Temporarily install water pump pulley.
10. Install RH engine mounting insulator.





(a) Install the RH mounting insulator to the engine mounting bracket with the two nuts and bolt. Align the RH mounting insulator with the body bracket and install the mounting through bolt and nut.

Torque:
Bolt 64 N.m (650 kgf.cm, 47 ft.lbf)
Nut 52 N.m (530 kgf.cm, 38 ft.lbf)
Through bolt 87 N.m (890 kgf.cm, 69 ft.lbf)





(b) Install the RH mounting stay with the three bolts, remove the jack.

Torque: 42 N.m (430 kgf.cm 31 ft.lbf)

11. Install cylinder head cover.





(a) Apply seal packing as shown in the illustration.

Seal packing: Part No. 08826-00080 or equivalent

HINT: Clean the indicated portions by removing the original sealant before recoating.





(b) Install the cylinder head cover with the three grommets and bolts.
(c) Install the PCV hoses.





12. Install spark plugs.
(a) Using a plug wrench (16 mm) install the spark plugs.

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

(b) Connect the high tension cords to spark plugs.





13. Connect engine wire to No.3 timing belt cover.
(a) Connect the engine wire to the timing belt cover, and connect the wire clamp to the wire bracket.
(b) Install the bolt.
(c) Connect the following connectors and wire:
- Alternator connector Alternator wire
- Oil pressure switch connector
- (with A/C) Compressor connector

14. On vehicles with PS, install PS pump drive belt.
15. On vehicles with A/C, Install A/C compressor drive belt.
16. Install alternator drive belt.
17. Adjust drive belts.
Using a belt tension gauge, check and adjust the drive belt tension.
