Oil Pump Sprocket Assembly Note

1. Hold the oil pump sprocket using the SST.

Timing Chain Assembly Note

1. Install the SST to the camshaft, then align the No. 1 camshaft position with the TDC.

Europe

Except Europe

2. Remove the cylinder block lower blind plug.

3. Install the SST as shown in the figure.

4. Turn the crankshaft clockwise so that the crankshaft is in the No.1 cylinder TDC position.

5. Install the timing chain.

6. Install the chain tensioner and remove the retaining wire.

Camshaft Sprocket, Variable Valve Timing Actuator (L3 (with variable valve timing mechanism)) Assembly Note

1. Hold the camshaft using a suitable wrench on the cast hexagon as shown in the figure.

2. Tighten the camshaft sprocket lock bolt.

Front Oil Seal Assembly Note

1. Apply clean engine oil to the oil seal.

2. Push the oil seal slightly in by hand.

3. Compress the oil seal using the SST and a hammer.

Engine Front Cover Assembly Note

1. Apply silicone sealant to the engine front cover as shown in the figure.

Caution
• Install the cylinder head cover within 10 min of applying the silicone sealant.
• Silicone sealant is not need in area C as indicated below due to an existing. (L3 (with variable valve timing mechanism))

Crankshaft Pulley Lock Bolt Assembly Note

1. Install the SST to the camshaft as shown in the figure.

Europe

Except Europe

2. Install the M6 × 1.0 bolt in by hand.

3. Turn the crankshaft clockwise so that the crankshaft is in the No.1 cylinder TDC position.

4. Hold the crankshaft pulley using the SST.

5. Tighten the crankshaft pulley lock bolt in the order shown following two steps using the SST (49 D032 316).
