Install each crankshaft sprocket so that its flange side (the
larger diameter side without teeth) faces in the direction as
shown.
NOTE:
The same parts are used but facing directions are different.
4. Install timing chains and associated parts.
Align the mating mark on each sprocket and the timing chain for installation.
CAUTION:
Before installing chain tensioner, it is possible to change the position of mating mark on tim-
ing chain and each sprocket. After the mating marks are aligned, keep them aligned by hold-
ing them by hand.
Install slack guides and tension guides onto correct side by checking with identification mark on sur-
face.
Install chain tensioner with plunger locked in with stopper pin.
CAUTION:
Before and after the installation of chain tensioner, make sure that the mating mark on timing
chain is not out of alignment.
After installing chain tensioner, remove the stopper pin to release tensioner. Make sure ten-
sioner is released.
To avoid chain-link skipping of timing chain, never move crankshaft or camshafts until front
cover is installed.
5. In the same way as for right bank, install the timing chain and associated parts on the left side.
6. Install the oil pump.
7. Install the oil pump drive spacer as follows:
Install so that the front mark on the front edge of oil pump
drive spacer faces the front of the engine.
Insert oil pump drive spacer according to the directions of the
crankshaft key and the two flat surfaces of oil pump inner
rotor.
If the positional relationship does not allow the insertion,
rotate oil pump inner rotor to allow the oil pump drive spacer
to be inserted.
