<< A >> Timing Belt Removal

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION: Water or oil on the belt shortens its life drastically, so the removed timing belt, sprocket, and tensioner must be washed or immersed in solvent. Replace parts if contaminated. If there is oil or water on any part, check the front case oil seals, camshaft oil seal, and water pump for leaks.
  1. Mark the belt running direction for reinstallation.
  2. Loosen the tensioner pulley bolt, and then remove the timing belt.
