9. REMOVE TIMING BELT NO.1 COVER
10. REMOVE TIMING BELT NO.2 COVER
(a) Disconnect the engine wire protector clamps from the timing belt No. 3 cover.
(b) Remove the 5 bolts and timing belt cover.
11. REMOVE ENGINE MOUNTING BRACKET RH
12. REMOVE TIMING BELT GUIDE NO.2
13. REMOVE TIMING BELT
(a) Set the No. 1 cylinder to TDC/compression.
(1) Temporarily install the crankshaft pulley bolt with the washer to the crankshaft.
(2) Turn the crankshaft clockwise, and align the timing marks of the crankshaft timing pulley and oil pump body.
(3) Check that the timing marks of the camshaft timing pulleys and No. 3 timing belt cover are aligned. If not, turn the crankshaft 1 revolution (360°).
(4) Remove the crankshaft pulley bolt.
(b) If reusing the timing belt, check that there are 4 installation marks on the timing belt as shown in the illustration.
(1) If the installation marks have disappeared, put new installation marks on the timing belt before removal.
(c) Set the No. 1 cylinder to approximately 60°BTDC/compression.
(1) Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise by approximately 60°.
NOTE: With timing belt removed: The crankshaft pulley must be at the correct angle to avoid damage in later steps. If the crankshaft pulley is at the wrong angle and then the camshaft timing pulley and the camshaft are removed, the piston head and valve head may come in contact and incur damage.
(d) Remove the timing belt tensioner.
NOTE: Do not reinstall the tensioner with its plunger extended.
(e) Remove the timing belt in this order.
