Timing Component Alignment Marks: Diagrams

CAUTION: Incorrect removal or installation of the timing components can result in damage to internal engine components.

NOTICE: For complete replacement and installation procedures for the timing belt, please refer to Timing Belt; Service and Repair. Service and Repair

TIMING BELT
(a) Remove any oil or water on the pulleys, and keep them clean.
NOTICE:
- If there is a trace of water and/or oil on the timing belt, repair the leakage and install a new timing belt.
- Wipe only the pulleys; do not use any cleaning agent.

(b) Inspect the idler pulleys.
(1) Check that the idler pulley turns smoothly.
(2) Visually check the seal portion of the idler pulley for oil leakage.
(c) Inspect the water pump.
(1) Turn the pulley, and check that the water pump bearing moves smoothly and does not make any noise.
(2) Visually check the drain hole for coolant leakage.
(d) Temporarily install the crankshaft pulley bolt and washer to the crankshaft.






(e) Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise by approximately 60°.
NOTE: To prevent contacting the piston head and the valve head, set the crankshaft pulley at 60° BTDC/compression position.





(f) Using SST, turn the timing pulleys, and align the timing marks of the timing pulleys with the No.3 timing belt cover.
SST: 09960-10010
09962-01000
09963-01000
NOTE: Be sure to hold the SST with the timing marks aligned to prevent the left bank pulley from deviating to the right.





(g) Turn the crankshaft, and align the timing mark of the crankshaft timing pulley with the oil pump body.






(h) Face the front mark on the timing belt forward.
(i) Align the installation mark on the timing belt with the timing mark of the crankshaft timing pulley.
(j) Align the installation marks on the timing belt with the timing marks of the camshaft timing pulleys.






(k) Install the timing belt in the following order.





NOTE: Be sure to hold the SST with the timing marks aligned to prevent the left bank pulley from deviating to the right.
