7 Install Tool No. EN-46105–1 (1) onto the rear of the
right-hand cylinder head (3) camshafts (2).

Figure 6A1 – 313
NOTE
Use an open-end spanner (1) at the camshaft
hex (2) to prevent camshaft/engine rotation.
NOTE
Do not remove the cams haft sprocket bolt (3) at
this time.
8 Loosen the camshaft sprocket bolt (3). NOTE
If you have already removed the camshaft
timing chain proceed to Step 12

Figure 6A1 – 314
NOTE
The front engine cover is removed in the
following graphic for illustration purposes and is
not required to be removed to perform this
procedure.
9 Loosen the timing chain retention Tool No. EN 48313 so that the legs are retracted.
10 Insert the Tool No. EN 48313 between the camshaft actuators, rearward of t he timing chain until the top
line that is scribed into t he body of the tool (1) is
adjacent to the top surfac e of the cylinder head (2).
This is the approximat e installed position.

11 Ensure that the feet (2) of the Tool No. EN 48313 are
facing the front of the engine.
CAUTION
DO NOT tighten the Tool No. EN 48313 at
this stage.
12 Partially expand the legs (1) on the Tool No. EN 48313 by turning the T-shaped handle clockwise.
CAUTION
Ensure the feet (2) of the Tool No. EN 48313
are correctly engaged into one of the link
pockets to prevent the chain from slipping
during tightening.

14 Hand tighten the Tool No. EN 48313. DO NOT allow the body of the Tool No. EN 48313 to rotate when tightening
the T-handle.
15 Use an open-end spanner on the hex cast into both the right intake and exhaust camshafts and rotate the
camshafts towards each other in order to creat e slack in the chain between the actuators.
16 The Tool No. EN 48313 is now correctly inst alled to hold the timing chain in position.
NOTE
Ensure the camshaft timing chain and the
camshaft position actuators are marked for
correct reassembly.
17 Mark the timing chain and the respective location on both camshaft position actuators.
18 Remove the bolt (1) attaching the right-hand exhaust camshaft sprocket (2) and remove the sprocket.
