(trailing edge of sprocket tooth) (Fig. 115).
NOTE: The crankshaft sprocket TDC mark is located on the trailing edge of the sprocket tooth. Failure to align trailing edge of sprocket tooth to
TDC mark on oil pump housing will cause the camshaft timing marks to be misaligned.

slides into the locking hole.

CAUTION: If timing belt was damaged due to incorrect tracking (alignment), the belt tensioner assembly must be replaced.
