Timing Belt: Installation

Align crankshaft pulley set key with key groove of timing pulley and slide on timing pulley. Install crankshaft sprocket with sensor side inward.
Install timing belt plate. Install and tighten bolt to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Install No. 1 and 2 idler pulleys (if removed). Install and tighten bolts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Ensure idler pulleys are clean and rotate smoothly.
If installing camshaft sprockets, ensure camshaft sprockets are installed with flange in correct direction. Install right camshaft sprocket with flange outward (away from cylinder head). Install left camshaft sprocket with flange inward (against cylinder head).
Align hole in camshaft sprocket with pin in camshaft, and install sprocket. Install and tighten camshaft sprocket bolt to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS .
Temporarily install crankshaft pulley bolt in crankshaft. Using crankshaft pulley bolt, rotate crankshaft clockwise until timing mark on crankshaft sprocket aligns with timing mark on oil pump body. See Figure.
Using camshaft sprocket holder, rotate each camshaft sprocket so timing mark on camshaft sprocket aligns with timing mark on No. 3 timing belt cover. See Figure.
Align reference marks on timing belt with dot on crankshaft sprocket and timing marks on camshaft sprocket. Ensure front mark is pointing toward timing belt end of engine.
Install timing belt on crankshaft sprocket, water pump pulley, left camshaft sprocket, No. 2 idler pulley, right camshaft sprocket and No. 1 idler pulley. Using press, apply pressure on rod of timing belt tensioner until rod is retracted and holes in rod and housing are aligned. See Fig 1.
Install hexagon wrench through holes in housing and rod to hold rod in retracted position. See Fig 1. Release press, and install dust boot on timing belt tensioner. Install timing belt tensioner. Install and alternately tighten bolts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS .
Remove hexagon wrench from timing belt tensioner. Rotate crankshaft clockwise until timing mark on crankshaft sprocket aligns with timing mark on oil pump body. See Figure.
Ensure timing mark on each camshaft sprocket is aligned with timing mark on No. 3 timing belt cover. See Figure. If all timing marks are not aligned, remove and reinstall timing belt. Remove crankshaft pulley bolt.
Using NEW gaskets, install No. 1 and 2 timing belt covers. Install engine wire protector clamps to No. 3 timing belt cover. Install and tighten bolts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS .
Align and install crankshaft pulley. Install and tighten crankshaft pulley bolt to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS .
To install remaining components, reverse removal procedure. Tighten fasteners to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS .
