1) Confirm that No. 1 piston is set at T.D.C. on it's compression stroke.

2) Install lower timing chain.

• Set timing chain by aligning its
• crankshaft sprocket and the one on the idler sprocket. The Dumber of links between the alignment marks (yellow) are the same for the left and right sides, alignment with the sprocket.

3) Fit idler sprocket and bolt to cylinder head.

• Ensure the idler shaft is located correctly, as shown.

4) Fit chain guide

5) Fit lower chain tensioner.

6) Apply liquid gasket 10 front cover.

7) Install front covet.

• Align oil pump drive spacer with oil pump.
• Ensure O-rings are fitted correctly
