e.

Tighten mounting bolts in numerical order as shown in the fig-
ure.

There are two types of mounting bolt. Refer to the following
for locating bolts.

figure, for the placement of cam nose, it is generally accepted
camshaft is placed for the same direction of the figure.

CAUTION:

Hole on small dia. side must be used for intake side dowel pin hole. Do not misidentify (ignore big
dia. side).

5.

Install timing chain (secondary) and camshaft sprockets (INT and EXH) as follows:

CAUTION:

Mating marks between timing chain and sprockets slip easily. Confirm all mating mark positions
repeatedly during the installation process.

a.

Push plunger of timing chain tensioner (secondary) and keep it
pressed in with stopper pin.

b.

Install timing chain (secondary) and camshaft sprockets (INT
and EXH).

Align the mating marks on timing chain (secondary) (gold link)
with the ones on camshaft sprockets (INT and EXH)
(punched), and install them.

NOTE:

Mating marks for camshaft sprocket (INT) are on the back
side of camshaft sprocket (secondary).

There are two types of mating mark, circle and oval types.
They should be used for the right and left banks, respec-
tively.

Align dowel pin and pin hole on camshafts with the groove
and dowel pin on sprockets, and install them.

On the intake side, align pin hole on the small diameter side of
the camshaft front end with dowel pin on the back side of
camshaft sprocket, and install them.

On the exhaust side, align dowel pin on camshaft front end
with pin groove on camshaft sprocket, and install them.

In case that positions of each mating mark and each dowel
pin are not fit on mating parts, make fine adjustment to the position holding the hexagonal portion on
camshaft with wrench or equivalent.

Mounting bolts for camshaft sprockets must be tightened in the next step. Tightening them by hand is
enough to prevent the dislocation of dowel pins.

It may be difficult to visually check the dislocation of mating
marks during and after installation. To make the matching
easier, make a mating mark on the top of sprocket teeth and
its extended line in advance with paint.

Install timing chain (primary) so the mating mark (punched) on
camshaft sprocket (INT) is aligned with the pink link on timing
chain, while the mating mark (notched) on crankshaft
sprocket is aligned with the orange one on timing chain, as
shown in the figure.

When it is difficult to align mating marks of timing chain (pri-
mary) with each sprocket, gradually turn camshaft using
wrench on the hexagonal portion to align it with the mating
marks.

During alignment, be careful to prevent dislocation of mating
mark alignments of timing chains (secondary).

8.

Install internal chain guide, slack guide and timing chain ten-
sioner (primary).

CAUTION:

Do not overtighten slack guide mounting bolt. It is normal
for a gap to exist under the bolt seat when mounting bolt is
tightened to specification.

9.

Install the timing chain tensioner (primary) with the following procedure:

a.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection for Leaks

The following are procedures for checking fluids leak, lubricates leak and exhaust gases leak.

Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to

MA-10, "RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS"

.

Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.

Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel
leakage at connection points.

Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.

Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal/installation, slack in the guide may
generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop after
hydraulic pressure rises.

Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gases, or any oil/fluids
including engine oil and engine coolant.

Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.

After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary.

Summary of the inspection items:

*: Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.
