L300 V6-3.0L VIN R (2001)
11. If camshaft gears 1 and 2 are properly aligned, set the final timing belt tensioner as outlined in Timing Belt Tensioner Adjustment at the end of this
procedure.
Marks on Camshaft Gears 1 and 2 Align to the RIGHT of J 42069-20
1. Loosen the timing belt idler pulley for camshaft gears 1 & 2.
2. Slacken the timing belt by turning the eccentric on the idler pulley CLOCKWISE with the J 42069-40 adjustment wrench until the marks on the
camshaft gears and the marks on the J 42069-20 checking gauge are in alignment (the high point of the idler pulley eccentric will be in
approximately the 9 o'clock position).
Tighten
Tighten the timing belt idler pulley bolt, while holding the eccentric in place with the J 42069-40 adjustment wrench to prevent movement, to 40 Nm (30
lb ft).
3. Remove the J 42069-10 crankshaft locking tool and the J 42069-20 checking gauge.
4. Turn the crankshaft in the engine rotational direction two revolutions with the J 42069. Stop at 60 degrees BTDC.
5. Install the J 42069-10 crankshaft locking tool to the crankshaft drive gear with the knurled bolt.
6. Use the J 42069 to carefully turn the crankshaft until the lever of the J 42069-10 firmly contacts the water pump pulley flange.
7. Secure the moveable lever of the tool to the water pump pulley flange.
8. Install the J 42069-20 checking gauge to camshaft gears 1 & 2.
9. Inspect the alignment of the marks on the camshaft gears in reference to the marks on the J 42069-20 checking gauge.
10. Repeat the procedure again if the marks do not align.
11. If camshaft gears 1 and 2 are properly aligned, set the final timing belt tensioner as outlined in Timing Belt Tensioner Adjustment at the end of this
procedure.
Timing Belt Tensioner Adjustment
Important: The following steps are the COMPLETION of adjusting the timing belt and must not be performed as a stand alone operation.
1. With the J 42069-10 in place locking the crankshaft at TDC:
A. Loosen the timing belt tensioner eccentric locking nut.
B. Turn the eccentric counterclockwise to full stop, then back until the reference mark is 2-4 mm ABOVE the reference mark on the flange.
Tighten
Tighten the timing belt tensioner locking nut to 20 Nm (15 lb ft).
