the engine block as shown in the illustration.

CAUTION:   The camshaft sprocket (right bank) can turn easily due to the spring force applied, so be careful not to get your fingers caught.

2. Install the timing belt by the procedure so that there is no deflection in the timing belt between each sprocket and pulley.

1. Crankshaft sprocket 
2. Idler pulley 
3. Camshaft sprocket (Left bank) 
4. Water pump pulley 
5. Camshaft sprocket (Right bank)
6. Tensioner pulley

3. Turn the camshaft sprocket (Right bank) counterclockwise until the tension side of the timing belt is firmly stretched. Check all the timing

marks again.

4. Use special tool MD998767 to push the tensioner pulley into the timing belt, then temporarily tighten the center bolt.

5. Use special tool MD998769 to turn the crankshaft 1/4 turn counterclockwise, then turn it again clockwise until the timing marks are aligned.

CAUTION:  When tightening the center bolt, be careful that the tensioner pulley does not turn with the bolt.

6. Loosen the center bolt of the tensioner pulley. Use special tool MD998767 and a torque wrench to apply the tension torque to the timing belt

as shown in the illustration. Then tighten the center bolt to the specified torque.
Standard value: 4.4 Nm (39 in. lbs.) <Timing belt tension torque>
Tightening torque: 48 ± 6 Nm (36 ± 4 ft. lbs.)
