Note!
- Images shown may depict SOHC engine. Belt routing and all relevant information is correct for DOHC applications.

- As of 1987 all DOHC engines have a mechanical tensioner that replaces the need for tensioning tool 9201. Refer to "Timing Belt : Adjustments".

Note:
1. It is essential that cylinder no.1 be at TDC and the camshaft sprocket aligned with mark to install a complete camshaft housing, since otherwise valves could be damaged.
2. Never crank engine as long as camshaft belt is off or not tightened, since valves could also be damaged.

Special note on toothed belts and drive belts
As a rule, make sure the toothed belts and drive belts are not kinked during assembly, packaging and storage. Improper handling may cause incipient damage to the camshaft toothed belts and may lead to engine damage.
