Timing Belt & Pulleys (Turbo Models): Installation

1. Install engine front cover and water pump. Coat rotor with engine oil and install with chamfered side facing cylinder body. Coat "O" ring with engine oil and insert in housing groove. Mount housing and tighten bolts. Rotate pump. Replace pump if it does not rotate smoothly.
2. Install oil pump pulley. Install camshaft guide plate and camshaft pulley. Hold pulley stationary and tighten mounting bolt. Install crankshaft timing pulley with keyway at 12 o'clock position. Install tension pulley and spring. Push pulley assembly toward water pump and temporarily tighten mounting bolt.
3. Rotate crankshaft until mark on timing pulley aligns with mark on front oil seal retainer. Rotate camshaft pulley until mark aligns with mark on front plate. Ensure No. 4 cylinder is at TDC on compression stroke. See Fig 1 .
4. Position timing belt over crankshaft pulley, oil pump pulley, camshaft pulley and tension pulley, in sequence given WITHOUT  slack between pulleys. Loosen tension pulley adjusting bolt to allow spring tension to tighten belt. Tighten adjusting bolt.
5. Install crankshaft damper and rotate crankshaft 2 complete revolutions in opposite direction of engine rotation until marks on crankshaft timing pulley and front oil seal retainer are aligned. Loosen tension adjusting bolt. Tighten timing belt to proper specification and tighten adjusting bolt.
6. Install timing belt cover and crankshaft damper assembly. Complete installation by reversing removal procedure. Install all drive belts and check valve clearance.
