the exhaust cam sprocket.
2. Remove the VVT unit, exhaust sprocket and secondary chain as an asse mbly (release the chain
from the tensioner which is still secured to the
cylinder head).
Remove the secondary chain from the VVT unit and the
sprocket.
19. Clean and inspect all relevant components.

1. Push the tensioner piston (secon dary chain) into the body to
provide clearance for fitting.
1. Insert a thin rigid wire th rough the hole in the end of
the tensioner piston to displace the ball from the non-
return valve seat.
2. With the wire in position, press the piston fully into the tensioner body.
Remove the wire.
2. Fit the VVT unit to the engine.
Assemble the VVT unit, the exhaust camshaft sprocket
and the secondary chain, in pr eparation for fitting to the
engine.
1. Fit the above assembly to the camshafts with the chain correctly positioned over the tensioner; VVT
unit to the inlet and the sprocket to the exhaust.
2. Fit, but do not tighten, each bolt which secures the VVT unit and the exhaust sprocket to the camshafts.

3. Fit the chain tensioning tool 303 - 532 to the exhaust camshaft
sprocket.
Reposition the sprocket (and the VVT unit) for the most
advantageous position for use of the tool.
Remove the tool.

4. Refit the primary timing chain.
1. Fit the primary chain to position over the crankshaft sprocket and the VVT unit sprocket. There must be no
slack on the drive side of the primary chain.
2. The VVT unit must not be rotated on the camshaft

5. Fit the primary chain tensioner blade.
1. Position the tensioner blade to the cylinder block.
2. Fit the retaining / pivot bolt and tighten it to 12-16 Nm.
6. Refit the primary chain tensione r assembly. Refer to Operation
12.65.54 in this Section.
Use a wedge 303 - 533 (or two if required) between the
primary chain tensioner and te nsioner blade, to take up
the slack in the chain.

7. Tighten the exhaust camshaft sprocket securing bolt.
1. Fit the chain tensioner tool 303 - 532 to the sprocket holes.
Apply force to the tool in an anti-clockwise direction to
tension the chain on its drive side.
2. Whilst applying the opposing force to the sprocket and chain, tighten the sprock et securing bolt to 115 -
125 Nm.

8. Tighten the VVT unit securing bolt.
1. Whilst still applying the opposing force to the
sprocket and chain (using 303 - 532), check that the
wedges are still in place, tighten the VVT unit
securing bolt to 115 - 125 Nm.
Remove the chain tensioning tool and the wedge(s).
9. Remove the camshaft locking tool 303 - 530.
10. Raise the vehicle on the ramp.
11. Remove the crankshaft setting tool 303 - 531.

12. Refit the crankshaft position sensor.
1. Fit the sensor to the fl ywheel housing and fit the
securing bolt. Tighten to 8-12 Nm.
2. Refit the access grommet to the housing.
13. Lower the ramp.
14. Refit the A-Bank VVT Bush Carrier Assembly. Refer to
operation 12.65.51 in this Section.
15. Refit the Timing Cover. Refer to Operation 12.65.01 in this
Section.
