• Turn engine to TDC number one before disassembly of engine.
• Remove starter motor and use component A to hold the flywheel when undoing the crankshaft pulley bolt.

The following instructions are for guidance only. Please refer to OEM derived data such as the vehicle manufacturers’ own data or Autodata.

Instructions

Component A
Used to lock the flywheel when loosening and tightening the crankshaft pulley bolt.
Remove the starter motor, assemble component A as shown and fit in the starter aperture so that its tooth locks the flywheel. Component B
Used to set the crankshaft position.
Remove the blanking plug in the side of the engine block as shown and fit component B. Turn the crankshaft slowly clockwise until the crankshaft web contacts the end of component B. Component C
Used to lock the belt tensioner in its fully retracted position as shown. Component D
Used to initially set the position of the crankshaft via a hole in the front crankshaft pulley as shown above.
Component E & F
Used to lock the camshafts in their timed position independently of their pulleys.
With component B already fitted and the engine at TDC No.1 cylinder.
Fit the components E and F ensuring they seat on the surface of the cylinder head.
Fit fixing bolts hand tighten (use the cam cover bolts for this purpose). N.B. On engines equipped with VCT, if the VCT pulleys require removal or loosening ensure their initial position is marked with chalk or paint. Additional tooling will be required to set the position of the VCT pulleys, see Laser Part No. 6291.
Component G
