REMOVAL SERVICE POINTS

.

<<A>> TIMING BELT REMOVAL

CAUTION

Water or oil on the belt shortens its life drastically, so the 
removed timing belt, sprocket, and tensioner must be kept 
free from oil and water. Do not immerse parts in cleaning 
solvent.
Mark the belt running direction for reference in reinstallation.
NOTE: If there is oil or water on any part, check the front case 
oil seal, camshaft oil seal, and water pump for leaks.

.

<<B>> CAMSHAFT SPROCKET BOLT REMOVAL
Use special tools MB990767 and MD998715 to prevent the 
camshaft sprocket from turning, and then loosen the camshaft 
sprocket bolt.

INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS

SPACER/CRANKSHAFT SPROCKET INSTALLATION
1. Clean the hole in the crankshaft sprocket.
2. Clean and degrease the mating surfaces of the crankshaft 

sprocket; sensing blade; and spacer.

NOTE: Degreasing is necessary to prevent decrease in friction 
between the mating surface due to presence of oil.

.

position with the following procedure.
1. Set the auto-tensioner in a vice.

2. Slowly close the vice to force the rod in until the set hole (A) 

of the rod is lined up with the set hole (B) of the cylinder.

3. Insert a wire [1.4 mm (0.06 inch) in diameter] into the set 

holes.

4. Remove the auto-tensioner from the vice.

>>D<< TIMING BELT INSTALLATION

CAUTION

If the camshaft sprocket is rotated with the piston at the 
top dead center on the compression stroke of the number 
1 cylinder, the valve and piston might interfere.
1. Move the timing mark of the crankshaft sprocket three teeth 

to slightly lower the piston below the top dead center on the 
compression stroke of the number 1 cylinder.
