Remove the crankshaft pulley-to-crankshaft bolts and remove the pulley.
From the front of the engine, remove the nut and the engine harness cover.
Remove the timing belt cover.
Rotate the crankshaft to position the timing marks at Top Dead Center (TDC) of the No. 1 cylinder’s compression stroke.

To install:

Install the timing belt tensioner and finger-tighten the tensioner bolt.
Inspect the timing marks to be sure that the engine is positioned at TDC of the No. 1 cylinder’s compression stroke.
Using tool J-43037, or equivalent, place it between the intake and exhaust sprockets to prevent the camshaft gear from moving during the timing belt installation.
Install the timing belt.
Position the timing belt to ensure that the tension side of the belt is taut and move the timing belt tension adjusting lever clockwise until the tensioner pointer is flowing.
If installing a used timing belt (used over 60 min. from new), the pointer should be positioned approximately 0.16 in. (4mm) to the left of the V notch when viewed from the front of the engine.
If installing a new timing belt, the pointer should be positioned at the center of the V notch when viewed from the front of the engine.
Torque the timing belt tensioner adjusting bolt to 18 ft. lbs. (25 Nm).
Install the timing belt front cover and torque the bolts to 53 inch lbs. (6 Nm).
Install the engine harness connectors.
Install the crankshaft pulley and toque the pulley-to-crankshaft bolts to 14 ft. lbs. (20 Nm).
Move the drive belt tensioner to the loose side and install the drive belt to its normal position.
