Timing Belt: Reassembly
- Install damper pulley flange and crankshaft sprocket as shown. Pay close attention to their mounting direction.
Tightening Torque
- Camshaft sprocket bolt: 170-180 N.m (1700-1800 kg.cm, 125-133 Ib.ft)
- Install the camshaft sprocket and tighten the bolt to the specified torque.
Tightening torque
- Camshaft sprocket bolt: 100-120 N.m (1000-1200 kg.cm, 74-89 Ib.ft)
- Align the timing marks of the camshaft sprocket and crankshaft sprocket with the No. 1 piston placed at top dead center and its compression stroke.
- Install the timing belt tensioner and idler pulley.
- Install the timing belt on the camshaft.NOTE: When the timing belt is installed on the camshaft sprocket, make sure that the tension side is tightened by pushing the timing belt tensioner pulley toward the water pump.
- Turn the crankshaft one turn in the operating direction (clockwise) and realign crankshaft sprocket timing mark.CAUTION: Do not turn the crankshaft in a counterclockwise direction. The crankshaft should be turned smoothly.
Tightening torque
- Tensioner and idler pulley installing bolt: 43-55 N.m (430-550 kg.cm, 32-41 Ib.ft)
- Recheck the belt tension. When the tension side of timing belt is pushed horizontally with a moderate force [approx. 2kg (20N, 5Ib)], the timing belt cog end sags in approx. 4-6 mm (0.16-0.24 in.)
- Install the timing belt cover.
Tightening torque
- Timing belt cover bolt: 8-10 N.m (80-100 kg.cm, 6-7 Ib.ft)
- Install the crankshaft pulley. Make sure that the crankshaft sprocket pin fits the small hole in the pulley.
- Install the coolant pump pulley.
- Install the drive belt and adjust the belt tension.
