Keep in mind that the reamer bolt is sometimes heat seized on the engine support bracket.
12. Removal of timing belt.
(a) Align the timing marks.
(b) Make a mark on the back of the timing belt indicating the direction of rotation so it may be reassembled in the same direction it it is to be reused.
(c) Loosen the center bolt on the tensioner pulley to remove the timing belt.
CAUTION:
-
Water or oil on the belt shorten its life drastically, so the removed timing belt, sprocket, and tensioner must be free from oil and water. These
parts should not be washed. Replace parts if seriously contaminated.
If there is oil or water on each part check the front case oil seals, camshaft oil seal and water pump for leaks.
