INSTALLATION
1. INSTALL CHAIN
(a) Set the position of the No. 1 cylinder to 20° ATDC.

NOTICE:
To prevent the pistons from hitting against valves, the following procedures must be performed in the
order below.

(1) Set the crankshaft between 40 to 140° ATDC.

(2) Set the cams of the intake and exhaust timing sprockets to 20° ATDC.

(3) Reset the crankshaft to 20° ATDC.

(b) Install the chain vibration damper with the 2 bolts.

Torque:
9.0 N·m {92 kgf·cm, 80in·lbf}

(c) Align the timing marks of the camshaft timing sprocket,

camshaft timing gear and crankshaft timing sprocket with each
mark plate (colored in yellow) of the timing chain.

HINT:
To prevent the exhaust camshaft from springing back, turn it
using a wrench and set it at the mark on the chain.

(d) Install the chain tensioner slipper with the bolt.

Torque:
9.0 N·m {92 kgf·cm, 80in·lbf}

(e) Install the chain tensioner with the 2 bolts.

(1) While rotating the stopper plate of the chain tensioner

upward as shown in the illustration, push in the plunger of
the tensioner.
