19. IF RE-USING TIMING BELT, CHECK INSTALLATION MARKS ON TIMING BELT.
Check that there are 3 installation marks on the timing belt by turning the crankshaft pulley as shown in the illustration.
NOTE: If the installation marks have disappeared, place a new installation mark on the timing belt before removing each part.
20. LOOSEN CRANKSHAFT PULLEY BOLT.
Using SST 09213-54015 (90119-08216), 09330-00021, loosen the pulley bolt.
21. SET NO.1 CYLINDER TO APPROX. 50° ATDC/COMPRESSION.
(a) Turn the crankshaft pulley and align its groove with timing mark "0 of the No.1 timing belt cover.
(b) Check that the timing marks of the camshaft timing pulleys and timing belt rear plates aligned. If not, turn the crankshaft 1 revolution (360°).
(c) Turn the crankshaft pulley approx. 50° clockwise, and put the timing mark of the crankshaft pulley in line with the centers of the crankshaft pulley bolt and the idler pulley bolt.
NOTE: If the timing belt is disengaged, having the crankshaft pulley at the wrong angle can cause the piston head and valve head to come into contact with each other when you remove the camshaft timing pulley (step 19), causing damage. So always set the crankshaft pulley at the correct angle.
(d) Remove the crankshaft pulley bolt.
NOTE: Do not turn the crankshaft pulley.
22. REMOVE TIMING BELT TENSIONER.
NOTE:
- When re-using timing belt: If the installation marks have disappeared, before remove the timing belt, place 2 new installation marks on the timing belt to match the timing marks of the camshaft timing pulleys.
- When replacing timing belt tensioner only: To avoid meshing of the timing pulley and timing belt, secure one of them with string. And place matchmarks on the timing belt and RH camshaft timing pulley.
Alternately loosen the 2 bolts, and remove them, the belt tensioner and dust boot.
23. DISCONNECT TIMING BELT FROM CAMSHAFT TIMING PULLEYS.
(a) Using SST 09960-10010 (09962-01000. 09963-01000), loosen the tension spring between the LH and RH camshaft timing pulleys by slightly turning the LH camshaft timing pulley clockwise.
(b) Disconnect the timing belt from the camshaft timing pulleys.
24. REMOVE CAMSHAFT TIMING PULLEYS.
Using SST 09960-10010 (09962-01000. 09963-01000), remove the bolt and timing pulley. Remove the 2 timing pulleys.

29. REMOVE TIMING BELT GUIDE.
30. REMOVE TIMING BELT COVER SPACER.
31. REMOVE TIMING BELT.
NOTE: If re-using the belt and the installation mark has disappeared from it, place a new installation mark on the timing belt to the match the dot mark of the crankshaft timing pulley.
32. REMOVE NO.2 IDLER PULLEY.
Remove the bolt and idler pulley.
33. REMOVE NO.1 IDLER PULLEY.
Using a 10 mm hexagon wrench, remove the bolt, idler pulley and plate washer.
34. REMOVE CRANKSHAFT TIMING PULLEY.
Using SST 09950-50010 (09951-05010,09952-05010, 09953-05010, 09953-05020, 09954-05010), remove the timing pulley.
