REMOVAL SERVICE POINTS
<<A>> TIMING BELT REMOVAL
1. If the timing belt is to be reused, make an arrow
mark with something like chalk on the back of the
belt indicating the direction of rotation so it may be
reinstalled in the same direction.
CAUTION
Never remove the timing belt with any piston at
the top dead center (TDC). If a piston is at TDC,
the exhaust valves of the cylinder are pushed by
the exhaust cams, compressing the valve
springs. If the belt is removed under this condi-
tion, the sprocket will be turned in the reverse
direction by the force of the springs, incurring
risk of injury.
2. Set the timing mark of the exhaust camshaft
sprocket to a point about one tooth before the
TDC of the No.1 cylinder piston on compression
stroke.
3. Loosen the lock nut of the tensioner pulley, then
remove the timing belt.
<<B>> OIL PUMP SPROCKET REMOVAL
1. Remove the plug on the left side of cylinder block.
2. Insert a crosspoint screwdriver (shank diameter 8
mm) to prevent the counterbalancer shaft from
rotating.
