In range A, the cam lobe on the camshaft lifts the valve through the rocker arm and the camshaft sprocket is apt to rotate by reaction force of
the valve spring. Therefore, be careful not to have the finger pinched between the sprockets.

3) Turn the camshaft sprocket for either the intake or exhaust valve to locate the timing mark as shown in the illustration. Then turn the other

crankshaft to locate the timing mark as shown in the illustration.

CAUTION:
-

If the intake and exhaust valves of the same cylinder lift simultaneously, interference with each other may result. Therefore, turn the intake
valve camshaft sprocket and the exhaust valve camshaft alternately.

4) Turn the camshaft sprocket clockwise to align the timing marks.

If the camshaft sprocket has been turned excessively, turn it counterclockwise to align the timing marks.

5) Align the timing mark of the crankshaft sprocket.

NOTE:
-

Shift the timing mark of the crankshaft sprocket one teeth in counterclockwise direction to facilitate belt installation.

(b) Using paper clips, install the timing belt in the following order with care not to allow the belt to slack.
