REFITTING
An arrow indicating the direction of rotation and
two dashes for setting are marked on the surface
of the belt .
Check that the engine is at the setting point.
Bring the belt markings in line with the sprocket
markings .
Observe the mounting direction for the belt and
begin to position it on the crankshaft sprocket.
Carry out the tensioning of the belt using tool
Mot. 1135-01, until the fitting value is obtained
(see section 07 "Timing belt tension ").
Tighten the nut (O) of the tension wheel to a tor-
que of 5 daN.m.
It is essential to tighten the nut of the tension
wheel to a torque of 5 daN. to avoid any slacke-
ning which may cause a deterioration in the en-
gine .
Refitting is the reverse of removal.
Refit the crankshaft pulley, being sure to tighten
the bolt to a torque of 2 daN.m with an angle of
68° ± 6°.
Refit and tension the accessories belts (see section
07 "Accessories belt tension").
Never refit a belt once removed , but replace it. E7J Engine

Remove the fuel pipe support (7).
Slacken the mounting bolts for the lower timing
cover, without removing them.
99173-1R
13093R
Remove :
- the accessories belt tensioning system,
- the cylinder head bolts.
Release the cylinder head by setting aside the
lower part of the lower camshaft housing,
without causing the cylinder head to pivot, since
this is centred by the two dowels at ( C ).
Using a syringe, extract any oil which may have
entered the cylinder head mounting holes .
This is necessary in order to obtain the correct
tightening of the bolts.
Protect the oil outlet duct in order to prevent any
foreign bodies from entering the oilways in the
cylinder head.
Failure to take this advice could lead to the
blocking of the oilways, resulting in a rapid dete-
rioration of the camshaft. F8Q Engine
