9. If timing belt deflection adjustment is necessary:
A. Turn the timing belt idler pulley eccentric for camshafts 3 and 4 COUNTER CLOCKWISE, with J 42069-40, until the high point of the
eccentric is in approximately the 12 o'clock position.
B. Tighten the idler pulley locking bolt, while holding the eccentric with J 42069-40, until snug. The idler pulley bolt will be tightened to
specifications after all final adjustments are made.
10. Apply additional tension to the timing belt, at the idler pulley for camshafts 1 and 2, by turning the high point of the eccentric to approximately the
9 o'clock position. Then, tighten the idler pulley locking bolt, while holding the eccentric with J 42069-40, until snug. The idler pulley bolt will be
tightened to specifications after all final adjustments are made.
11. Set the INITIAL timing belt tension:
A. Turn the tensioner eccentric COUNTER CLOCKWISE to full stop, then, turn the eccentric back until the reference mark is 1 mm (0.003 in)
over the flange.
B. Tighten the timing belt tensioner locking nut until snug, the locking nut will be tightened to specifications after all final adjustments are made.
12. Inspect the alignment marks on the timing belt to ensure that they are aligned with the appropriate reference points on the camshaft gears, the rear
