- Insert timing pin 18G 1523 through hole in gearbox mounting plate, hold pin in contact with flywheel.
- Using assistance, rotate crankshaft clockwise until timing pin 18G 1523 can be felt to enter hole in flywheel.
CAUTION: Do not use camshaft gear, gear retaining bolt or timing belt to rotate crankshaft.
- Check that camshaft gear timing mark is aligned with mark on back cover.
- Loosen but do not remove 4 bolts securing injection pump timing belt camshaft gear to hub.
- Insert locking pin 18G 1717 through hole in injection pump drive gear and into hole in mounting plate.
NOTE: Locking pin 18G 1717 must be a sliding fit, if pin is tight, rotate pump drive gear slightly using a socket on the hub nut until pin can be inserted correctly.
- Check that camshaft gear timing mark is still aligned with mark on back cover.
- If injection pump timing belt is to be refitted, mark direction of rotation on belt.
- Loosen Allen bolt securing tensioner pulley to mounting plate, move tensioner aside.
- Remove injection pump timing belt.
CAUTION: Do not rotate camshaft or injection pump with timing belt removed. Ease timing belt from gears using the fingers only. Metal levers may damage the belt and gears. Store a belt on its edge with a radius greater than 50 mm. DO NOT use a belt that has been twisted or bent double as this can fracture the reinforcing fibres. Do not use an oil contaminated belt. Although the belt has a service life of 84,000 miles, (135,000 km) an existing belt should only be refitted if it has completed less than 42,000 miles, (65,000 km).
- Remove but do not discard bolt retaining injection pump timing belt camshaft gear, remove camshaft gear.
