Rodeo S 2WD L4-2.2L (1999)
square to the plane surface (7).
5. Determine the left and right stops by turning the knurled bolt (2).
Set the dial of the gauge to zero.
Use the knurled bolt (2) to move the 2nd balancer shaft (exhaust side) back and forth. Again - simultaneously read off the tooth backlash from the
gauge.
The permissible tooth backlash is: 0.02 mm to 0.06 mm (0.0008 to 0.0024 inch).
6. The tooth backlash must be measured in 4 different positions - turn the crankshaft further at the fastening bolt of the timing belt drive gear by 45°
in the engine rotational direction until the measuring arm (2) is at "6 o'clock".
7. Then loosen the knurled bolt (3) fix the measuring arm at "9 o'clock" again and repeat the measurement.
8. If the value determined in one of the 4 measurements lies outside the tolerance 0.02 mm to 0.06 mm (0.0008 to 0.0024 inch), the tooth backlash
must be adjusted.
