5. Set No.1 cylinder to TDC/Compression.





(a) Using SST 09960-10010 (09962-01000, 09963-01000), align the hole of the camshaft timing pulley on the side with the 5E mark with the timing mark of the bearing cap.





(b) Using the crankshaft pulley bolt, turn the crankshaft and align the timing marks of the crankshaft timing pulley and oil pump body.

6. Install timing belt.

NOTICE: The engine should be cold.





HINT (When re-using timing belt): Align the points marked during removal, and install the belt with the arrow pointing in the direction of engine revolution.

(a) Remove any oil or water on the pulleys. and keep them clean.

NOTICE: Only wipe the pulleys, do not use any cleansing agent.





(b) Install the timing belt, and check the tension between the crankshaft timing pulley and camshaft timing pulley.

7. Check valve timing.





(a) Loosen the No.1 idler pulley mount bolt, until the pulley is moved slightly by the spring tension.





(b) Slowly turn the crankshaft pulley 2 revolutions from TDC to TDC.

NOTICE: Always turn the crankshaft clockwise.





(c) Check that each pulley aligns with the timing marks as shown.
If the timing marks do not align, remove the timing belt and reinstall it.
(d) Tighten the No.1 idler pulley bolt.

Torque: 18.5 N.m (185 kgf.cm, 13 ft.lbf)

(e) Remove the crankshaft pulley bolt.





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





9. Install No.1 timing belt cover.
(a) Install the gasket to the belt cover.
(b) Install the belt cover with the 3 bolts.
10. Install No.3 timing belt cover.





11. Install crankshaft pulley.
(a) Align the pulley set key with the key groove of the pulley, and slide on the pulley.
(b) Using SST 09213-14010.09330-00021, install the pulley bolt.

Torque: 156 N.m (1,550 kgf.cm, 112 ft.lbf)





12. On vehicles with A/C and/or PS, Install No.2 crankshaft pulley.
Install the No.2 crankshaft pulley with the 4 bolts.

Torque: 19 N.m (195 kgf.cm, 14 ft.lbf)





13. Install No.2 timing belt cover.
(a) Install the gasket to the belt cover
(b) Install the belt cover with the 4 bolts.





14. Install RH engine mounting insulator.
(a) Attach the RH mounting insulator to the mounting bracket and body, and temporarily install the through bolt, 2 bolts and nut.
(b) Torque the 2 bolts, nut and through bolt of the RH mounting insulator.

Torque:
Through bolt: 73 N.m (740 kgf.cm, 54 ft.lbf)
Other: 64 N.m (650 kgf.cm, 47 ft.lbf)

(c) Connect the ground strap with the bolt.

15. Install and adjust generator drive belt.
16. On vehicles with A/C and/or PS, Install and adjust drive belt.
17. Install RH engine under cover.
