Setting the timing
WARNING:
it is essential to degrease the end of the crankshaft (timing end), the
bore and the contact surfaces of the timing pinion, the contact surfaces
of the accessories pulley and the ends of the camshafts (timing end), the
bores and contact surfaces of the exhaust camshaft pulley and the inlet
camshaft phase shifter. This is to prevent sliding between the timing,
the crankshaft and the exhaust camshaft pulleys and the inlet phase
shifter which could destroy the engine.
NOTE:
to make it easier to place the grooves in a horizontal position, position
the camshaft pulley and phase shifter, then screw in place the old pulley
nut and the old phase shifter bolt tightening them to 1.5 daN.m
MAXIMUM, and position the pistons at mid-travel (to prevent any
contact between the valves and the pistons).
Place the camshaft grooves in a horizontal position as indicated on the
diagram below (turning the camshafts using tool Mot. 799-01 if necessa-
ry).
