Lower the vehicle to the ground.
NOTE:
- Camshaft toothed pulleys of engines 829.A5 and
J6T.A500 are identical but the fitment is different,
Fig. I.
- If, after carrying out the belt tensioning operation,
the timing belt is noisy when the engine is hot,
retension the belt with the engine hot.

- the trmrng belt
REFITTING
Fit, Fig. II:
the timrng belt- marks t-+-) and i-e-1 on the belt
should face the marks A and B on pinrons (there
are 35 pitches between A and B, passing around
the tensloner roller (I 1).
Loosen the nuts of the tensioner roller.
Install, Fig. III:
- tool 6Q28-T.K. on the roller
- the tool weight over the mark 2 of the rod, Fig 1V. Fitting the injection pump belt:
Run the engrne by 1 turn err the drrectrorr of rotation
until marks--- +- /Ino up, Fig. I
(wrth cylinder No 1 at the rnrtral trmrng
point)
Setting the pump to the injection point:
refer to Op @ MA. 146-011
Fit the InJectron purnf, drrvrng belt with the srde oppo-
site the roller, trght.
Slacken the roller nut. Let the roller- spring react
Tighten the rnut to 2 mdaN.
Rotate the engine by 2 turns in the direction of nor-
rnal rotation and check the pump timrng.
Remove the tools

GENERAL FEATURES OF THE CARBURATION
FITTING. Fig. I:
5. FIN the tamper-proof protective plug (a):
- load gun A,
- screw tool E onto gun A,
- position plug (a) in its housing on the carburettor (make sure it is fitted the right way round Fig. 111,
- actuate the gun until the plug is properly located.
EXHAUST EMISSION CONTROL
In order to comply with current regulations, the checking and adjustment of the exhaust emission from vehicles
with a petrol engine must, without fail, be performed after the following operations:
I. ENGINE REPLACEMENT.
II. CARBURETTOR REPLACEMENT.
Ill. WORK ON THE CARBURETTOR.
Replacement of parts of the carburettor.
Carburettor adjustment.
Work on the carburettor controls.
IV. WORK ON THE INLET MANIFOLD.
Replacement or removal of:
- the inlet manifold,
- the air filter,
- crankcase gas recirculation system
V. WORK ON THE ENGINE.
Rocker adjustment.
Replacement or removal of:
- the cylinder head,
- the camshaft,
- the rockers,
- the valves,
- the liners and pistons.
VI. WORK ON THE IGNITION.
Replacement or reconditioning of the distributor (wholly or partially)
Adjustment or replacement of the sparking plugs.
Adjustment of the ignition timing.
VII. WORK ON EXHAUST SYSTEM.
Replacement or removal of:
- the exhaust manifold,
- the silencer or any part of the exhaust.
VIII. WORK ON THE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM.
When the vehicle is fitted with a specific equipment (e.g. on vehicles of SWEDEN, AUSTRALlA or JAPAN type)
