Inspection (Montero & Pickup)
Inspect timing belt for wear on edges of drive teeth. Inspect
belt for oil contamination, cracks, separation, worn or missing teeth
and hardened back surface. Replace belt if worn, damaged or
contaminated. Inspect belt tensioner for smooth rotation. Replace if
defective.
Installation (Montero & Pickup)
1) Install rear timing belt cover. Tighten bolts to
specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS (MONTERO & PICKUP) table at
end of article. Install camshaft sprockets (if removed). Using holder,\
hold camshaft and tighten retaining bolt to specification.
2) Install belt tensioner and spring. Ensure spring is
secured on pin of water pump and engaged in hole of belt tensioner
with hook of spring pointing from cylinder block.
3) Rotate belt tensioner counterclockwise as much as
possible, and temporarily tighten bolt. Align all timing marks with
No. 1 cylinder at TDC of compression stroke. See Fig. 8.
4) Install timing belt on crankshaft sprocket and then left
camshaft sprocket with all slack removed from tension side of belt.
Route timing belt onto water pump pulley, right camshaft sprocket and
tensioner. Remove any slack from belt by rotating left and then right
camshaft sprockets counterclockwise.
5) Ensure belt is installed in original direction of rotation
and all timing marks are aligned. Install flange on crankshaft. Loosen
belt tensioner bolts slightly, and allow tensioner to apply belt
tension.
6) Using Crankshaft Socket (MD998716), rotate crankshaft 2

Inspect belt tensioner for smooth rotation. Replace if defective.
Installation
1) Install rear timing belt cover. Tighten bolts to
specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS (3000GT) table at end of
article. Install camshaft sprockets (if removed). Using holder, hold
camshaft and tighten camshaft sprocket bolt to specification.
2) Install belt tensioner and spring. Ensure spring is
secured on pin of water pump and engaged in hole of belt tensioner
with hook of spring pointing from cylinder block.
3) Rotate belt tensioner counterclockwise as much as
possible, and temporarily tighten bolt. Align all timing marks with
No. 1 cylinder at TDC of compression stroke. See Fig. 8.
4) Install timing belt on crankshaft sprocket, rear cylinder
bank camshaft sprocket, water pump pulley, front cylinder bank
camshaft sprocket and timing belt tensioner. Ensure belt is installed
in original direction of rotation and all timing marks are aligned.
Install flange on crankshaft. Loosen belt tensioner bolts slightly,
and allow tensioner to apply belt tension.
5) Using Crankshaft Socket (MD998716), rotate crankshaft 2
revolutions clockwise. DO NOT rotate counterclockwise. Realign all
timing marks. Tighten belt tensioner bolts to specification. See
TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS (3000GT) table. Using belt tension gauge,
measure belt tension halfway between crankshaft sprocket and camshaft
sprocket on side opposite belt tensioner.
6) Belt tension should be 46.3-63.3 lbs. (21-29 kg). To
install remaining components, reverse removal procedure. Install
proper length bolts in timing belt covers and engine support bracket.
See Figs. 9 and 10. Tighten bolts to specification. See TORQUE
SPECIFICATIONS (3000GT) table.
NOTE: Engine support bracket reamer bolt must be tightened slowly
while spraying lubricant on bolt.

Inspection
Check friction surfaces of clutch for damage due to excessive
heat, or excessive grooving due to slippage. Replace compressor
components as necessary. Oil or dirt on friction surfaces should be
cleaned with a solvent and a dry rag. Check coil for binding, shorted
or open leads.
Installation
1) Install coil assembly on compressor. Properly position
terminals. Using snap ring pliers, install snap ring. Using a plastic
mallet, drive pulley and bearing assembly onto neck of front cover.
Turn pulley, making sure that there is no noise and that rotation is
free. Ensure there is no pulley play.
2) Using snap ring pliers, install inner snap ring. Remove
all oil from clutch pulley. Fit key and clutch hub to shaft. Select
adjusting spacer which gives the correct clearance between pulley and
clutch hub.
3) Coat shaft nut with Loctite and install. Using a feeler
gauge, measure clutch hub-to-pulley clearance. Clearance should be .
020-.031" (.5-.8 mm). If specified clearance is not obtained, replace
adjusting spacer and readjust.
4) When replacing compressor clutch assembly, DO NOT forget
break-in operation. This is accomplished by engaging and disengaging
clutch 30 times.

NOTE: Check compressor refrigerant oil level when replacing seals.
Removal
1) Secure 2 box-end wrenches, to hold armature plate, using
two 6 mm bolts 1 in. (25 mm) or longer. Holding box-end wrenches, use
a socket and ratchet to remove clutch hub nut.
2) Remove armature plate. See Fig. 17. Remove snap ring with
internal snap ring pliers. Remove clutch hub. Remove snap ring and
clutch coil.

ring and shaft seal plate.
Installation
1) Lubricate shaft seal with compressor oil. Align notches on
shaft seal with notches on crank shaft. Install shaft seal plate on
the front housing. Install front seal housing to compressor.
2) Use Press Tool (MB991301) to install felt into front
housing. Make sure felt metal section faces up. Use Press Tool
(MB991301) to press bearing into front housing.
3) Align and install clutch coil. Install snap ring so that
the tapered surface is facing outward. Install clutch hub. Install
snap ring. Install armature plate, aligning raised area to notch.
4) Secure 2 box-end wrenches, to hold armature plate, using
two 6 mm bolts 1 in. (25 mm) or longer. Holding box-end wrenches, use
a socket and ratchet to tighten clutch hub nut to 12 ft. lbs. (16 N.
m).
5) Use feeler gauge to measure distance between armature and
clutch hub. If gap is not .01-.02" (.25-.51 mm), remove clutch
assembly and add or remove shims accordingly.

HIGH PRESSURE SWITCH
The high pressure switch, installed in refrigerant line, is
wired in series with compressor clutch. When refrigerant pressures
rise above switch control pressure point, power to compressor clutch
is cut. The high pressure switch may also be activated when airflow
through condenser is blocked or when system is overcharged.
HIGH/LOW PRESSURE CUT-OFF SWITCH
The High/Low Pressure Cut-Off (HLPCO) switch, located on
refrigerant line, is wired in series with compressor clutch. Switch
cuts off power to compressor clutch when refrigerant pressures are
above or below switch control point. When pressure returns to normal
operating range, compressor clutch operation resumes.
LOW PRESSURE SWITCH
The low pressure switch, located in receiver-drier, is wired
in series with compressor clutch. When refrigerant pressure drops
below switch control point (usually due to leak in system), power to
compressor clutch is cut.
REFRIGERANT TEMPERATURE SWITCH
The refrigerant temperature switch, located on rear of
compressor, detects refrigerant temperature discharged from
compressor. A/C Control Unit (ACCU) uses this information to control
compressor clutch cycling.
