Remove the wheel well splash shield.

Remove the power steering belt and power steering pump. Do not disconnect the power steering hoses.
Remove the air conditioner belt (standard for some types).
Remove the alternator belt.
NOTE: After installation, adjust the tension of each belt.
Refer to Charging System for alternator belt adjustment.

* Positioning Crankshaft Before Installing Timing Belt
NOTE:
Install the timing belt with the No. 1 piston at TDC (Top Dead Center) on the compression stroke.
To set the camshafts to TDC position for No.1 cylinder, align the hole in the camshafts with the holes in the No. 1 camshaft holders and drive 5.0 mm pin punches into the holes.
If the pulley bolt loosens while turning the crank, retorque it to 120 N. M (12.0 kg. M, 87 lb. Ft.).
NOTE: To set the crankshaft to TDC, install the timing belt guide plates, timing belt drive pulley, timing belt lower cover, crankshaft pulley, and crankshaft pulley bolt.
Perform the timing belt tension adjustment.
Tension Adjustment

NOTE: Tensioner is spring-loaded to apply proper tension to the belt automatically after making the following adjustment.
Remove the valve cover.
Set the No. 1 piston at TDC.
Loosen the adjusting bolt.
Rotate the crankshaft counterclockwise 3-teeth on the camshaft pulley to create tension on the timing belt.
