ENGINE – Timing Belt
11-31
(17)Loosen the retaining bolt of the tensioner pulley.
Caution
Loosening the retaining bolt can cause the intake
and exhaust camshafts to turn, resulting in slackened
timing belt. Use care that the timing belt does not
come off the sprockets at this time.
(18)Pull up the slack of the timing belt by turning the tensioner
in illustrated direction using the special tool and a torque
wrench (0 – 5 Nm {0 – 0.5 kgf@m}).
(19)From this position, turn back the tensioner until the torque
wrench reading becomes 3.5 Nm {0.36 kgf@m}, then
secure it by tightening the retaining bolt.
(20)Remove the special tool attached in step (16).
(21)Rotate the crankshaft clockwise 2 turns. Then, leave it
intact 15 minutes.
(22)Check to see that the wire inserted when installing the
auto-tensioner can be pulled out lightly. If it can be pulled
out lightly, the timing belt is being tensioned properly.
If so, remove the wire. In addition, check that the rod
protrusion from the auto-tensioner meets the standard
value, which is also an indication of properly tensioned
timing belt.
Standard value: 3.8 – 4.5 mm
(23)If the wire cannot be removed with a light force, repeat
steps (16) through (21) until the proper belt tensioner
is obtained.
