TIMING BELT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [KL] 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Disconnect the negative battery cable. Remove the crankshaft position sensor. Remove the P/S oil pump with the pipe still connected. Remove the spark plug. Remove in the order indicated in the table. Install in the reverse order of removal. Verify the air gap. Refer to Powertrain Management.

8. Start the engine and 1. Inspect the pulleys and drive belt for runout and contact. 2. Verify the ignition timing. Crankshaft Pulley Removal Note
