  2. Install the camshaft sprocket and tighten the bolt to the specified torque.

    Tightening torque

    1. Camshaft sprocket bolt:
    2. 80-100 N.m (800-1000 kg.cm, 59-74 Ib.ft)
  3. Install the idler and tighten the idler bolt to the specified torque.

    Tightening torque

    1. Idler bolt: 43-55 N.m (430-550 kg.cm, 32-41 Ib.ft)
  4. Align the timing marks of the camshaft sprocket (A) and camshaft bearing cap (B).

    Then align the timing marks of crankshaft sprocket and front case with the No. 1 piston placed at top dead center on its compression stroke as shown in the illustration.

  8. Install the timing belt on the camshaft sprocket. When the timing belt is installed on the camshaft sprocket, make sure that the tension side is tight. Then, check to ensure that when the tension side is tightened by turning the camshaft sprocket in a reverse direction and all timing marks are in line.
  9. Tighten the tensioner bolts.

    Tightening torque

    1. Tensioner attaching bolt:
    2. 20-27 N.m (200-270 kg.cm, 15-20 Ib.ft)
  10. Turn the crankshaft two turns in its operating direction (clock-wise) and realign the camshaft sprocket timing mark with the top dead center position.
  11. Then recheck the belt tension Verify that when the tensioner and the tension side of the timing belt are pushed in horizontally with a moderate force [approx. 49 N (11 Ib)], the timing belt cog end is approx. 1/2 of the tensioner mounting bolt head radius (across flats) away from the bolt head center.

    Tightening torque

    1. Timing belt cover bolt:
    2. 8-10 N.m (80-100 kg.cm, 6-7 Ib.ft)
  13. Install the crankshaft pulley. Make sure that the crankshaft sprocket pin fits the small hole in the pulley.

    Tightening torque

    1. Crankshaft pulley bolt:
    2. 140-150 N.m (1400-1500 kg.cm, 103-111 Ib.ft)
  14. Install the water pump pulley.

  15. Install the alternator belt and adjust the belt tension.
  16. Install the air conditioning compressor belt and adjust the belt tension.
  17. Install the power steering belt and adjust the belt tension.
