Installing the front camshaft seal
Note! The purpose of the section, "Installing the VVT unit/timing gear pulley", described here is to ensure that the VVT unit is correctly
positioned and to reset the camshaft timing gear pulley to the correct position using the markings made at the factory. This is to ensure that the
conditions are correct for any later fault-tracing.
Note! For tightening torques, see Specifications, B6324S See: Specifications/Mechanical Specifications/Tightening Torque.
Cleaning
To clean the shaft journal and mating surface, use emery cloth P/N 951 1024.

contaminants are completely removed before the new sealing ring is installed.
