        *a Retard Side Path
        *b Advance Side Path
        *c Open
        *d Close
        Rubber Piece
        Vinyl Tape

        HINT: 

        4 oil paths are provided in the groove. Plug 2 paths with rubber pieces.

      2. Prick a hole in the tape placed on the advance side path. Prick a hole in the tape placed on the retard side path, on the opposite side to that of the advance side path, as shown in the illustration.
      3. Apply approximately 150 kPa (1.5 kgf/cm2, 22 psi) of air pressure to the 2 paths (the advance side path and the retard side path).

        *a Advance Side Path
        *b Retard Side Path

        HINT: 

        Cover the paths with a piece of cloth when applying pressure to keep oil from spraying.

      4. Make sure that the camshaft timing sprocket turns in the retard direction when reducing the air pressure applied to the advance side path.

        *a Advance Side Path
        *b Retard Side Path
        *c Decompress
        *d Hold Pressure

        HINT: 

        The lock pin is released and the camshaft timing sprocket turns in the retard direction.

      5. When the camshaft timing sprocket moves to the most retarded position, release the air pressure from the advance side path, and then release the air pressure from the retard side path.
        NOTE:

        Be sure to release the air pressure from the advance side path first. If the air pressure of the retard side path is released first, the camshaft timing sprocket may abruptly shift in the advance direction and break the lock pin or other parts.

  10. REMOVE CAMSHAFT TIMING GEAR ASSEMBLY 
    1. Remove the bolt and camshaft timing gear assembly.
