Keep all parts clean from contaminants. Contaminants may cause rapid wear and shortened component life. |
- Thoroughly clean the gasket material from the cylinder block and both sides of plate (19) .
- Install a new gasket (25) on the cylinder block.
Illustration 1 | g00576241 |
Typical example |
- Install plate (23) and bolts (24) .
Illustration 2 | g00596260 |
Typical example |
- Tighten bolts (24) to 55 ± 10 N·m (41 ± 7 lb ft).
- Tighten bolts (24) to 55 ± 10 N·m (41 ± 7 lb ft) again.
- Install shaft assembly (20). Apply Tooling (B) to the studs and the bolt for the shaft assembly. Tighten the nuts and the bolt for the shaft assembly to a torque of 55 ± 10 N·m (41 ± 7 lb ft).
- Hand tighten the nuts and the bolt for shaft assembly (20) to a torque of 55 ± 10 N·m (41 ± 7 lb ft) again.
- Install shaft assembly (19). Do not tighten the nuts and the bolt for shaft assembly (19) at this time. The nuts and the bolt for shaft assembly (19) will need to be tightened when the backlash is adjusted.
Note: The backlash for the camshaft gear and the adjustable idler gear will need to be readjusted if shaft assembly (19) has been removed, loosened, or moved in any way. The camshaft gear must be installed and the adjustable idler gear must be removed in order to perform the backlash adjustment procedure. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Fuel System".
- Apply Tooling (B) to bolts (22). Install shaft (21). Tighten bolts (22) to a torque of 55 ± 10 N·m (41 ± 7 lb ft) in a sequence (1, 3, 4, 5, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 1).

Bolt tightening sequence for shaft (21) |
- Put cluster gear (15) on shaft (21). Ensure that timing Marks (V) are aligned on cluster gear and the crankshaft gear. Apply Tooling (B) to bolts (17). Install plate (17) and bolts (16). Tighten bolts (16) to a torque of 30 ± 7 N·m (22 ± 5 lb ft).
Illustration 4 | g00596255 |
Typical example |
Illustration 5 | g00516404 |
Typical example |
- Put idler gear (11) on shaft (20). Apply Tooling (B) to bolts (12). Install plate (13) with the oil groove toward the gear face. Install bolts (12) and tighten to a torque of 30 ± 7 N·m (22 ± 5 lb ft).
Illustration 6 | g00596214 |
Typical example |
- Put adjustable idler gear (7) on shaft assembly (19). Apply Tooling (B) to bolts (8). Install plate (9) and bolts (8). Tighten bolts (8) to a torque of 30 ± 7 N·m (22 ± 5 lb ft).
Illustration 7 | g00596172 |
Typical example |
Note: Skip Step 12 if shaft assembly (19) has been removed, loosened, or moved in any way. The backlash for the camshaft gear and the adjustable idler gear will need to be readjusted. The camshaft gear must be installed and the adjustable idler gear must be removed in order to perform the backlash adjustment procedure. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Fuel System".
- Install O-ring seals (5) and (6) in seal assembly (3). Lightly lubricate the O-ring seal (5) with a 50/50 mixture of Tooling (C) and clean engine oil.
Illustration 8 | g00576240 |
Illustration 9 | g00576839 |
Typical example |
- Assemble thrust plate (1) and seal assembly (3). Apply Tooling (B) to bolts (2). Hold the assembly in position and install bolts (2). Evenly tighten bolts (2) until seal assembly (3) and O-ring seal (5) are seated against the cylinder head.
Note: Be careful in order to ensure that O-ring seal (5) stays in the groove in seal assembly (3) .
- Install adapter (4). Ensure that the dowel in adapter (4) engages the hole in the camshaft.
- Adjust the backlash for the camshaft gear and the adjustable idler gear, if necessary. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Fuel System".
Note: The camshaft gear must be installed and the adjustable idler gear must be removed in order to perform the backlash adjustment procedure.
End By: Install the front housing. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Housing (Front) - Install".
