- Start engine and let it run until it warms up. (until the radiator fan operates 3 or 4 times.)
- Turn Off engine. Check the coolant level and add coolant if needed. This will allow trapped air to be removed from the
cooling system.
- Put the radiator cap on tightly, then run engine again and check for leaks.
• Clean the battery posts and cable terminals with sandpaper, assemble them and then apply grease to prevent
corrosion.
• Inspect for fuel leakage.
- After assembling fuel line, turn on the ignition switch (do not operate the starter) so that the fuel pump could run for
approximately two seconds and fuel line could be pressurized.
- Repeat this operation two or three times and check for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line.

There are two methods to hold the ring gear when installing or removing the crankshaft damper pulley.
• Install the SST (09231-2B100) to hold the ring gear after removing the starter.
• Install the SST (09231-3D100) to hold the ring gear after removing the dust cover.
1. Remove the bracket (A).
2. Remove the dust cover (A) on the bottom of the ladder frame and unfasten the transaxle mounting bolt (B).

3. Adjust the length of the holder nuts (A) so that the front plate of the holder (B) puts in the ring gear (C) teeth.
4. Adjust the angle of the links (D) so that the bolt 70mm (2.7559in.) can be fastened to the original mounted
hole.
5. Install the SST (09231-3D100) using the mounting bolts and spacers. Tighten the bolts and nuts of the holder
and links securely.

20. Align the timing marks of the camshaft sprocket with the upper surface of the cylinder head to make No.1 cylinder be
positioned at TDC.
(1) Check the dowel pin of the crankshaft for facing upside of the engine at this monent.
Put paint marks on the timing chain links(3 places) that meet with the timing marks of the camshaft
sprockets(In, Ex : 2) and the crankshaft sprocket.
Before removing the tensioner, fix the piston of the tensioner with a pin through the hole(B) at TDC.

23. Remove the timing chain(A).
Inspection
Sprockets, Hydraulic Tensioner, Chain Guide, Tensioner Arm
1. Check the camshaft sprocket, crankshaft sprocket teeth for abnormal wear, cracks or damage. Replace if necessary.
2. Check a contact surface of the chain tensioner arm and guide for abnormal wear, cracks or damage. Replace if
necessary.
3. Check the hydraulic tensioner for its piston stroke and ratchet operation. Replace if necessary.
Belt, Idler, Pulley
1. Check the idler for excessive oil leakage, abnormal rotation or vibration. Replace if necssery.
2. Check belt for maintenance and abnormal wear of V-ribbed part. Replace if necssery.
3. Check the pulleys for vibration in rotation, oil or dust deposit of V-ribbed part. Replace if necssery.
Installation
1. Align the timing marks of the camshaft sprocket with the upper sureface of the cylinder head to make No.1 cylinder be
positioned at TDC.

(1) Check the dowel pin of the crankshaft for facing upside of the engine at this monent.
(2) Install the timing chain guide(A).
Tightening torque :
9.8 ~ 11.8 N.m (1.0 ~ 1.2 kgf.m, 7.2 ~ 8.7 lb-ft)
(3) When installing a timing chain, align the timing marks on the sprockets with paint marks of the chain.
Order : Crankshaft sprocket → Timing chain guide → Intake camshaft sprocket → Exhaust camshaft sprocket.
Tightening torque :
9.8 ~ 11.8 N.m (1.0 ~ 1.2 kgf.m, 7.2 ~ 8.7 lb-ft)

Recheck the top dead center(TDC) marks on the crankshaft and camshaft.
Width : 3 ~ 5mm(0.1181~0.1969in.)
(3) Apply the liquid gasket, THREE BOND 1282B or THREE BOND 1216E on the water pump contact parts of the
timing chain cover and THREE BOND 1217H or LOCTITE 5900H on the rest parts. Reassemble the cover(A)
within 5 minutes.
(4) Align the dowel pin of the cylinder block and the holes of the oil pump.
Tightening torque :
12mm bolts :
18.6 ~ 23.5 N.m (1.9 ~ 2.4 kgf.m, 13.7 ~ 17.4 lb-ft)
10mm bolts :
