• Measure outer diameters (d1, d2)
at the two positions as shown.
• Measure d2 within the range (A).
• If the value difference (d1 - d2) exceeds the limit, replace the bal-
ancer unit bolt with a new one.
INSTALLATION
1. Make sure the crankshaft key points straight up.
2. Install the balancer unit and tighten the bolts in the numerical order as shown:
CAUTION:
• When reusing a bolt, check its outer diameter before installation. Follow the Balan cer Unit Bolt Outer Diameter
procedure.
• Apply new engine oil to threads and seating surfaces of bolts.
• Check tightening angle with an angle wrench (A) or a pro- tractor. Do not make judgme nt by visual check alone.
3. Install the crankshaft sprocket (1) and timing chain (2) for the balancer unit.
• Make sure that the crankshaft sprocket (1) is positioned with
mating marks (A) on the block and sprocket meeting at the
top.
• Install it by lining up mating marks on each sprocket (A), (C) and timing chain (B), (D).
• (B): Pink link
• (D): Yellow link Limit : 0.15 mm (0. 0059 in) or more

4. Install timing chain tensioner for balancer unit (1).
• Compress the plunger, insert a stopper pin (A), and then installthe tensioner for the balancer unit.
• Do not pull out ( ) the stopper pin until after installing the tim- ing chain tensioner for balancer unit.
• Check matching mark position of balancer unit drive chain and
each sprocket again.
5. Install camshaft sprockets. • Install them by lining up the mating marks on each camshaft
sprocket (B) with the ones painted on the timing chain (A) dur-
ing removal.
• Before installation of chain tensioner, it is possible to re-match
the marks on timing chain with the ones on each sprocket.
CAUTION:
• Aligned mating marks could slip. Therefore, after match-
ing them, hold the timing chain in place by hand.
• Before and after installing chain tensioner, check again to
make sure that mating marks have not slipped.
6. Install chain tensioner using the following procedure:
a. Install stopper pin (A) into the chain tensioner (1).
b. Install the chain tensioner and pull the stopper pin out. CAUTION:
After installation, pull the stopper pin out, and make sure
that the tensioner is fully released.
7. Install timing chain (1) and related parts. • Install by lining up mating marks on each sprocket and timingchain as shown.
• Before and after installing chain tensioner (3), check to make sure the mating marks have not slipped.
• After installing timing chain tensioner (3), remove the stopper
pin, and make sure that the tensioner moves freely.
CAUTION:
• For the following note, after the mating marks are aligned,
keep them aligned by holding them by hand.
• To avoid skipped teeth, do not move crankshaft and cam- shaft until front cover is installed.
NOTE:
• Before installing chain tensioner (3) it is possible to slip the
chain on the sprocket to align the chain timing mark with the
sprocket timing mark.
• There may be two color variations of the link marks (link col- ors) on the timing chain.
• There are 26 links between the pink mating marks on the tim- ing chain; and 64 links between the camshaft sprocket pink
link and the crankshaft sprocket yellow link, on the timing
chain side without the tensioner.

a. Install O-rings to cylinder head and cylinder block. CAUTION:
Do not reuse O-rings.
b. Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket to front cover as shown.
Use Genuine RTV Silicone Seal ant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-21, "Recommended Chemi cal Products and Sealants"
.
CAUTION:
• For bolt holes with marks (5 locations), apply liquid
gasket outside the holes.
• Installation should be done within 5 minutes after applica-
tion of liquid gasket.
• Do not fill the engine with oil for at least 30 minutes after
the components are installed to allow the liquid gasket to
cure.
c. Make sure the mating marks on the timing chain and each sprocket are still aligned. Then install the front cover.
CAUTION:
Do not damage the front oi l seal during installation.
