Installation
20. 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.
Allow the VVT unit sufficien t space to fit the primary
chain, in a la ter operation.

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. Lift the primary chain an d position it over the VVT
unit sprocket (the VVT unit mu st be pulled forward to
clear the cylinder head casting). There must be no
slack on the drive side of the primary chain and the
VVT unit must not be rotated on the camshaft.
2. Slide the VVT unit fully on to the camshaft.
5. Fit the primary chain tensioner blade.
1. Position the tensioner blade to the cylinder block.

Installation

mechanism to the sprockets. It is sealed at the factory to the
correct valve timing specificatio n for the engine and is supplied
only as a complete unit.

18. Remove the VVT unit.
1. Remove the securing bolt from both the VVT unit and
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).

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.

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

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.

ENSURE THAT ALL FIRE PREVENTION PROCEDURES ARE ACTIVE.
BEFORE PROCEEDING, IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE WARNING NOTES GIVEN IN SECTION 100-00 (UNDER THE
HEADING 'SAFETY PRECAUTIONS') ARE READ AND UNDERSTOOD.

9. Depressurise the fuel system.
Ensure that the ignition is switched off and remove the
valve cap from the fuel cross-over pipe. Place a cloth
under the valve to collect any spillage.
Place a closed container, su itable for collecting fuel,
adjacent to the vehicle. Remove the lid.

10. Connect the fuel injection pressure test equipment 310 - 058
(or other suitable type). Insert the drain / bleed tube into the
