w(Re±using timing belt)
If the installation marks have disappeared, before re-

the timing belt to match the timing marks of the camshaft
timing pulleys, and place a new installation mark on the
timing belt to match the end of the hydraulic pump.
w (When replacing timing belt tensioner only)
To avoid meshing of the timing pulley and timing belt, se-
cure one of them with string. And place matchmarks on
the timing belt and RH camshaft timing pulley.
Alternately loosen the two bolts, and remove them, the ten-
sioner and dust boot.

(f) Remove the service bolt (A).
7. INSTALL CAMSHAFTS NOTICE: Since the thrust clearance of the camshaft is
small, the camshaft must be held level while it is being
installed. If the camshaft is not kept level, the portion of
the cylinder head receiving the shaft thrust may crack or
be damaged causing the camshaft to seize or break. To
avoid this, the following steps should be carried out.
A. Install intake camshaft to RH cylinder head (a) Apply MP grease to the thrust portion of the camshaft.
(b) Place the intake camshaft at 45 ° angle of the timing
mark (one dot mark) on the cylinder head.
(c) Remove any old packing (FIPG) material.
(d) Apply seal packing to the bearing cap (mark ºI6º) as shown.
Seal packing: Part No. 08826±00080 or equivalent
(e) Install the front bearing cap (mark ºI6º) with the arrow mark facing rearward.
HINT:
w Installing the front bearing cap will determine the thrust
position of the camshaft.
w Align the arrow marks at front and rear of the cylinder
head with the mark on the bearing cap.
