Inspection (Montero & Pickup)
Inspect timing belt for wear on edges of drive teeth. Inspect
belt for oil contamination, cracks, separation, worn or missing teeth
and hardened back surface. Replace belt if worn, damaged or
contaminated. Inspect belt tensioner for smooth rotation. Replace if
defective.
Installation (Montero & Pickup)
1) Install rear timing belt cover. Tighten bolts to
specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS (MONTERO & PICKUP) table at
end of article. Install camshaft sprockets (if removed). Using holder,\
hold camshaft and tighten retaining bolt to specification.
2) Install belt tensioner and spring. Ensure spring is
secured on pin of water pump and engaged in hole of belt tensioner
with hook of spring pointing from cylinder block.
3) Rotate belt tensioner counterclockwise as much as
possible, and temporarily tighten bolt. Align all timing marks with
No. 1 cylinder at TDC of compression stroke. See Fig. 8.
4) Install timing belt on crankshaft sprocket and then left
camshaft sprocket with all slack removed from tension side of belt.
Route timing belt onto water pump pulley, right camshaft sprocket and
tensioner. Remove any slack from belt by rotating left and then right
camshaft sprockets counterclockwise.
5) Ensure belt is installed in original direction of rotation
and all timing marks are aligned. Install flange on crankshaft. Loosen
belt tensioner bolts slightly, and allow tensioner to apply belt
tension.
6) Using Crankshaft Socket (MD998716), rotate crankshaft 2

ENGINE MECHANICAL
Before performing any on-vehicle adjustments to fuel or
ignition system, ensure engine mechanical condition is okay.
VALVE CLEARANCE
NOTE: All engines except 1.5L use hydraulic valve lifters. Valve
adjustment is only required on 1.5L engines. To check
hydraulic valve lifter operation, see CHECKING HYDRAULIC
VALVE LIFTERS.
MECHANICAL VALVE LIFTERS
CAUTION: DO NOT rotate crankshaft in opposite direction of normal
engine rotation.
1.5L
1) Ensure engine is at normal operating temperature. Remove
all spark plugs and valve cover. Rotate crankshaft to position
cylinder No. 1 on TDC of compression stroke. Adjust intake valves on
cylinders No. 1 and No. 2, and exhaust valves on cylinders No. 1 and
No. 3. See VALVE CLEARANCE ADJUSTMENT table for specification.
2) Rotate crankshaft 360 degrees to position cylinder No. 4
on TDC of compression stroke. Adjust intake valves on cylinders No. 3
and No. 4, and exhaust valves on cylinders No. 2 and No. 4.

CHECKING HYDRAULIC VALVE LIFTERS
Except 1.5L
1) Remove valve cover. Push downward on end of rocker arm
above lash adjuster. If lash adjuster is normal, it will feel hard. If
lash adjuster moves downward easily when pushed, replace adjuster.
2) If lash adjuster feels soft or spongy, oil with air has
probably entered lash adjuster. If this occurs, check engine oil
level. If engine oil level is okay, check oil screen and oil screen
gasket for damage.
3) After repairing cause of air leak, warm engine to
operating temperature. Drive vehicle at low speed for approximately 5
minutes. Turn engine off for a few minutes.
4) Restart engine and drive at low speed for approximately 5

complete cooling system. Test components as follows, following tool
manufacturer's instructions.
Radiator Cap
Visually inspect radiator cap, then dip cap into water and
connect to tester. Pump tester to bring pressure to upper limit of cap
specification. If cap fails to hold pressure, replace cap.
Fig. 2: Testing Radiator Pressure Cap
Cooling System
1) With engine off, wipe radiator filler neck seat clean.
Fill radiator to correct level. Attach tester to radiator and pump
until pressure is at upper level of radiator rating.
2) If pressure drops, inspect for external leaks. If no leaks
are apparent, detach tester and run engine until normal operating
temperature is reached. Reattach tester and observe. If pressure
builds up immediately, a possible leak exists from a faulty head
gasket or crack in head or block.
NOTE: Pressure may build up quickly. Release any excess pressure
or cooling system damage may result.
3) If there is no immediate pressure build up, pump tester to
within system pressure range (on radiator cap). Vibration of gauge
pointer indicates compression or combustion leak into cooling system.
Isolate leak by shorting each spark plug wire to cylinder block. Gauge
pointer should stop or decrease vibration when leaking cylinder is
shorted.
