1. Temporarily fix the timing belt B tensioner so the center of the tensioner pulley is to the left and above the center of the mounting bolt.
Temporarily attach the tensioner pulley so the flange is toward the front of the engine.
CAUTION: When tightening the bolt, ensure that the tensioner pulley shaft does not rotate with the bolt. Allowing it to rotate with the bolt
can cause excessive tension of the bolt.
2. Holding the timing belt B tensioner up with your finger in the direction of the arrow, apply pressure on the timing belt so the tension side of the
belt is taut. Now tighten the bolt to fix the tensioner.
Tightening torque: 19 ± 3 Nm (14 ± 2 ft. lbs.)
3. To ensure that the tension is correct, depress the belt (point A) with a finger. Adjust the belt tension if it is incorrect.
Standard value: 5 - 7 mm (0.2 - 0.3 in.)
