CAUTION: lt*ays aa;j"t the timing bett rension withthe engine cold.
NOTE:
. The tensioner is spring loaded to apply tension to thebelt automatically after making the following adjustment.
. Always rotate the crankshaft counterclockwise whenviewed from the pulley side. Rotating it clockwisemay result in improper adjustment of the belt ten-sion.
. lnspect the timing belt before adjusting the belt ten-ston.
1.Remove the cylinder head cover.
. Refer to page 6,46 when installing.

correct positions on the engine.
CAUTION:
. Use tender covels to avoid damaging painted sul-
faces.
o To avoid damage, unplug the wiling connectors
carefully while holding the connector portion to
avoid damage.
. To avoid damaging the cylinder head, wait until the
engine coolant temperature drops below 100"F
{38"C} before loossning the tetaining bolts.
NOTE:
o Mark all wiring and hoses to avoid misconnectlon
Also, be sure that they do not contact other wiring or
hoses, or interfere with other parts.
. Inspect the timing belt before removing the cylinder
h ead.
. Turnthe crankshaft pu lley so that the No. lpistonisat
