6. Install the J 42069-1 and the J 42069-2 to the camshaft gears. If the J 42069-1 or the J 42069-2 do not fit into the teeth of the camshaft gears, it
may be necessary to loosen the relevant timing belt idler pulley and turn the eccentric until the J 42069-1 or the J 42069-2 can be inserted.
7. Loosen the timing belt tensioner and idler pulleys.
Important Do not move the crankshaft while the timing belt is removed. Do not remove the J 42069-1 and 342069-2 while the belt is removed.
8. Remove the timing belt.
9. Remove the 342069-10,342069-1 and the 342069-2 from the engine.
10. Rotate the crankshaft clockwise to 60 degrees (BTDC) to prevent valve-to-piston contact.

Installation and Initial Adjustment Procedure
Notice: When installing a new or used timing belt, the directional arrows on the timing belt must be matched with the rotation of the crankshaft. If this
precaution is not observed, excessive wear and timing belt failure may occur.
Important: Guide marks are printed on the timing belt to aid in installation. If these marks are not identifiable, install a new belt. Arrows are printed on
the timing belt indicating the required direction of travel. When installing the timing belt, ensure the arrows are traveling in engine rotational direction
(clockwise). Install the timing belt with the engine at room temperature. Do not crimp or bind the timing belt when handling or installing.
1. Start at the crankshaft drive gear and install the timing belt with the double dash (TDC) mark on the belt aligned with the marks on the oil pump
and on the belt drive gear.
2. Use the J 42069-30 to pinch the belt to prevent the teeth from jumping.
