4. To the timing chain case assembly installation surface, apply

the sealant without a gap. However, overlap the sealant at
the "D" shown in the figure.

Specified sealant: ThreeBond 1217G or equivalent

NOTE: Install the timing chain case assembly immediately
after applying sealant.

CAUTION

• If the sealant contacts any other part during installation

of the timing chain case assembly, apply sealant again
before installing the timing chain case assembly.

• After the installation, until a sufficient period of time

(one hour or more) elapses, do not apply the oil or
water to the sealant application area or start the engine.

5. Install the timing chain case assembly to the cylinder block

and cylinder head so that the sealant does not contact other
parts.

<<A>> TIMING CHAIN TENSIONER REMOVAL

CAUTION

Securely install the plunger of the timing chain tensioner.
Otherwise, it may pop out.
1. Press the balancer timing chain against the timing chain

tensioner, compress the plunger of the timing chain
tensioner and insert hard wire (piano wire, etc.) or L-shaped
hexagon wrench (1.5 mm [0.05 inch]) to fix the plunger of
the timing chain tensioner.

2. Remove the timing chain tensioner.

PUMP MODULE INSTALLATION

1. When installing the new balancer shaft and oil pump

module, apply oil to the oil pump in the balancer shaft and oil
pump module and the balancer shaft bearing as follows.

(1) Clean the inside of the removed engine oil pan, and put

the balancer shaft and oil pump module into the engine
oil pan with its oil inlet port facing up.

(2) Pour new engine oil until two-thirds of the balancer shaft

and oil pump module is soaked.

(3) Fill the engine oil (approximately 50 cm

3

[3.05 cu.in.]) into

the balancer shaft and oil pump module from the oil inlet
port.

(4) Turn the balancer shaft sprocket of the balancer shaft

and oil pump module clockwise four rotations or more to
apply the engine oil to the entire area of the oil pump and
the balancer shaft bearing.
