ENGINE TIMING
NOTE:For additional timing belt installation and alignment procedures, see TSB IB00-S005.
1. Turn the crankshaft timing pulley until its notch aligns with the mark on the oil pump housing. NOTE: The crankshaft timing pulley may have a
green mark 150 degrees from its keyway. Do not use this mark to set the crankshaft position.
2. Turn the right cylinder bank's camshaft pulley clockwise with a socket and ratchet. (The pulley clicks and stops several times.) Stop the pulley
when its green mark aligns with the valve cover timing mark.
NOTE:
You may need to rotate the camshaft pulley up to four complete turns before its green mark aligns directly with the valve cover timing mark.
