d. Being careful not to move the seal ring from the installation groove, align the dowel pins on the chain case with the holes to install the intake
valve timing control covers.
e. Tighten bolts in the numerical order as shown.
23. Install RH and LH rocker covers.
24. Install crankshaft pulley as follows:
a. Fix crankshaft using a hammer shaft or an equivalent tool.
b. Install crankshaft pulley, taking care not to damage front oil seal.
^
When press-fitting crankshaft pulley with a plastic hammer, tap on its center portion (not circumference).
c. Tighten bolt to 39.2 to 49.0 Nm (4.0 to 5.0 kgf-cm, 29 to 36 ft. lbs.).
d. Put a paint mark on crankshaft pulley aligning with angle mark on crankshaft pulley bolt. Then, further retighten bolt by 60 to 65 degrees
[Target: 60 degrees (equivalent to one graduation)].
25. Rotate crankshaft pulley in normal direction (clockwise when viewed from front) to confirm it turns smoothly.
26. For the following operations, perform steps in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE: If hydraulic pressure inside chain tensioner drops after removal/installation, slack in the guide may generate a pounding noise during and
just after engine start. However, this does not indicate an unusualness. Noise will stop after hydraulic pressure rises.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
^
Before starting engine, check the levels of engine coolant, lubrications and working oils. If less than required quantity, fill to the specified level.
^
Use procedure to check for fuel leakage.
-
Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leakage at connection points.
-
Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
^
Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
^
Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of engine coolant, lubricants, working oil, fuel and exhaust gas.
^
Bleed air from passages in pipes and tubes of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.
^
After cooling down engine, again check amounts of engine coolant, lubricants, oil, and fluid. Refill to specified level, if necessary.
