Timing Belt: Procedures

Inspection - Timing Verification

TIMING VERIFICATION

Remove the outer timing covers. Rotate the crankshaft until the pointer on the crankshaft sprocket (10) aligns the TDC mark on the oil pump (9). Check
to determine if the camshaft sprocket (2, 7) timing marks (1, 8) are aligned with the marks on the inner timing cover. It may take an additional full
revolution of the crankshaft before the camshaft sprocket marks are aligned.
