Line Up the Crankshaft & Camshaft

- Crank over engine in direction of rotation until peaks of intake and exhaust cams in cylinder no. 1 face each other. Arrows on timing chain sprockets face up.





Installation:
- Hold crankshaft in TDC position with Special Tool 11 2 300.

WARNING: Remove special tool before operating the engine.





Installation:
- Align camshaft and hold it with Special Tool 11 3 240.
- Camshafts can be turned on the hexagon with a 27 mm wrench.


WARNING: Don't damage the bearing plate - machine sides of open end wrench as shown if necessary.



CAUTION:
^ If the camshaft position has to be corrected enough that there is valve movement in cylinder no. 1 and 4, first turn the crankshaft approx. 90° away from TDC pesttion in the engine's direction of rotation and return it only after turning the camshaft. In this manner contact between valves and the piston will be avoided.
^ Install and unlock chain tensioner after assembling.
^ Press chain tensioner against the timing chain.
^ Recheck the camshaft adjustment.
