10) Turn crankshaft two rotations clockwise, and then

align timing mark (1) on crankshaft and timing mark
(2) on cylinder block as shown in figure.
At this time, check timing marks (3, 5 and 7) of
sprockets are in match with timing marks (4, 6 and 8)
of cylinder head, cylinder block and lower crank
case. Also, check arrow mark (9) on idler sprocket
faces upward as shown in figure.

11) Apply oil to timing chains, tensioner, tensioner

adjusters, sprockets and guides.

12) Install timing chain cover. Refer to “Timing Chain

Cover Removal and Installation: For J20 Engine” for
installation.

13) Install cylinder head cover. Refer to “Cylinder Head

Cover Removal and Installation: For J20 Engine” for
installation.

14) Install oil pan. Refer to “Oil Pan and Oil Pump

Strainer Removal and Installation: For J20 Engine in
Section 1E” for installation.

15) Install engine assembly to vehicle referring to

“Engine Assembly Removal and Installation: For J20
Engine”.

and Installation

S6JB0A1426019

CAUTION

After timing chain is removed, never turn
crankshaft and camshafts independently
more than its allowable turning range
described referring to “2nd Timing Chain and
Chain Tensioner Removal and Installation:
For J20 Engine”.
If turned, interference may occur between
piston and valves and valves themselves,
and parts related to piston and valves may be
damaged.

Removal

1) Remove 2nd timing chain. Refer to “2nd Timing

Chain and Chain Tensioner Removal and
Installation: For J20 Engine” for removal.

2) Remove timing chain guide No.1 (1).
3) Remove timing chain tensioner adjuster No.1 (2).
4) Remove timing chain tensioner (3).
5) Remove idler sprocket (4) and 1st timing chain (5).
6) Remove crankshaft timing sprocket (6).

Installation

1) Install crankshaft timing sprocket (2) as shown in

figure.
