15.Noting that the front camshaft oil seals are
black in colour and the rear oil seals are red, fit
new camshaft oil seals using LRT-12-203 and
LRT 12-148A
CAUTION: Oil seals must be fitted dry. Do
not use tool LRT-12-148 for fitting seals.
16.Clean camshaft timing belt cover backplate
bolts and apply sealant, Part No. STC 50552 to
the first 3 threads.
17.Position camshaft timing belt rear cover
backplates to cylinder head, fit and tighten bolts
to 9 Nm (7.5 lbf.ft).
18.Fit spark plugs.
19.Clean rear camshaft gears and mating faces on
camshafts.
CAUTION: If sintered gears have been
subjected to prolonged oil contamination,
they must be soaked in solvent and then
thoroughly washed in clean solvent before
refitting. Because of the porous
construction of sintered material, oil
impregnated in the gears will emerge and
contaminate the timing belts.20.Place gears inverted on a flat surface, with the
locating lugs on the gears positioned as
illustrated.
21.Keeping the timing marks aligned, position
timing belt onto gears.
22.Position LRT-12-195 between the gears, turn
centre nut sufficiently to spread drive belt.
23.Invert gears and timing belt and position LRT-
12-175 to camshaft gears.
24.Check that locating lugs are still aligned and
remove LRT-12-195 from between camshaft
gears.
