a(1) Jack up the vehicle after placing a wooden block
:.between the jack and the engine’s oil pan.
CautionJack up carefully so as not to apply an excessive
load to the various parts.
(2) Remove the engine mount bracket.
19. REMOVAL OF TIMING BELT
(1) Turn the crankshaft clockwise and align the timing
marks.Caution
The crankshaft must always be turned clockwise.
(2) Make a mark on the back of the timing belt indicating
the direction of rotation so it may be reassembled in thesame direction if it is to be reused.
(3) Loosen the bolt and tension spacer of the timing belt
tensioner.(4) Move the timing belt tensioner to the water pump side
and loosely tighten the bolt so that the tensioner
doesn’t return; then remove the timing belt.
NOTE
If the timing belt is to be re-used, use chalk to’mark (on
its flat side) an arrow indicating the clockwise direction.
Caution
1.As water or oil on the belt can seriously reduce
its usable life, ensure that the timing belt,
sprocket, and tensioner stay clean and dry whileremoved, and never wash them. Parts that haveic
*become too dirty should be replaced.
2. When any of the parts are oily, check to see
whether there are any oil leaks in any of the oil
seals or the camshaft oil seal on the front of the
engine.

24. REMOVAL OF OIL PUMP SPROCKET(1) Remove the plug on the side of the cylinder block.
(2) Insert a Phillips screwdriver [shank diameter 8 mm
(.31in.)] to block the left silent shaft.
(3) Remove the oil pump sprocket nut.
(4) Remove the oil pump sprocket.
28. REMOVAL OF TIMING BELT “B”
Make a mark on the back of the timing belt indicating the
direction of rotation so it may be reassembled in the same
direction if it is to be reused.
CautionWater or oil on the belt shorten its life drastically, so
the removed timing belt, sprocket, and tensioner must
be free from oil and water. These parts should not be
washed. Replace parts if seriously contaminated.
If there is oil or water on each part check the front caseoil seals, camshaft oil seal and water pump for leaks.
INSPECTIONNOSKCADTIMING BELTS
The timing belts must be checked closely. Should the followingdefects be evident, replace the belt with a new one.
(1) Hardened back surface rubber
Glossy, non-elastic, and so hard that no mark is produced
even when scratched by a fingernail.
(2) Cracked back surface rubber.
(3) Cracked or separated canvas.
(4) Cracked tooth bottom.
(5) Cracked side.
(6) Abnormal wear on side.
NOTE
Normal belt should have clear-cut sides as if cut by a sharp
knife.

30. INSTALLATION OF SPACER
(1) Apply a thin coat of engine oil to the outer circumfer-
ence of the spacer.
(2) Install the spacer with the chamfered end facing the oil
seal.
NOTEIf the spacer is installed adversely, the oil seal may be
damaged, resulting in the oil leaks.
28. INSTALLATION OF TIMING BELT “B”(1) Ensure that crankshaft sprocket “B” timing mark and
the silent shaft sprocket timing mark are aligned.
(2) Fit timing belt “B” over crankshaft sprocket “B” and
the silent shaft sprocket. Ensure that there is no slack inthe belt.+

arily secure tensioner.
19. INSTALLATION OF TIMING BELT(1) Ensure that the timing marks of the camshaft sprocket,
the crankshaft sprocket, and the oil pump sprocket are
all aligned.(2) When aligning the timing mark of the oil pump
sprocket, remove the plug of the cylinder block; then
insert the shaft of a cross-tip (+) screwdriver with a
shaft diameter of 8 mm
(.31 in.) into the plug hole and
check to be sure that the screwdriver’s shaft can be
inserted at least 60 mm (2.36 in.). Do not remove the
screwdriver until the timing belt is completely attached.If the screwdriver’s shaft can be inserted only to a
depth of about 20 to 25 mm
(.79 to .98 in.) because it
contacts the silent shaft, turn the sprocket by one
rotation and align the timing mark once again; then
check again to be sure that the screwdriver’s shaft can
be inserted at least 60 mm (2.36 in.).
(3) Install timing belt. While making sure that tension side
of belt is not slackened, install timing belt onto
crankshaft sprocket, oil pump sprocket and camshaft
sprocket in that order.
Caution
If the timing belt is reused, install so that the arrow
marked on it at the time of removal is pointing in
the clockwise direction..
ADJUSTMENT OF TIMING BELT TENSION
(1) Loosen tensioner mounting nut. By so doing, tensioner
will be moved by spring and will apply tension to belt.
(2) Recheck to be sure that each sprocket’s timing mark is
correct.
