Installation of camshaft timing pin (1) Timing pin (4) Camshaft
Install the camshaft timing pin (1) through the timing pin hole and into the hole in the camshaft (4). In order for the engine to be timed correctly, the camshaft timing pin must fit into the hole in the camshaft.
If the timing pin (1) cannot be installed into the hole in the camshaft, the engine is not in time and the camshaft position must be adjusted. Refer to "Timing Adjustment of the Camshaft".Timing Adjustment of the Camshaft
Note: Before you make any timing adjustments, the timing must be checked in order to determine whether any adjustment is necessary. Refer to the section "Camshaft Timing Check" for this procedure.If the "Camshaft Timing Check"procedure indicates that the camshaft is not in time with the crankshaft, the camshaft drive gear must be removed and the camshaft must be rotated. Steps 1 through 7 should be used if adjustment of the camshaft is necessary.
Put the No. 1 cylinder in the Top Center Position of the compression stroke and install the crankshaft timing pin. Remove all of the valve covers.

Camshaft drive gear (8) Camshaft drive gear (9) Plate (10) Bolts (11) Washer (12) Bolt
Loosen the camshaft drive gears (8) by using the following procedure:
Use a 6V-6080 Torque Multiplier and a 5P-1748 Socket and loosen bolt (12) .
Remove bolt (12) and washer (11). Remove bolts (10) and plate (9) .
Refer to the Illustration in Figure 6. Put washer (11) between the camshaft and plate (9). Install bolt (12) finger tight.
Install bolts (10) finger tight.
Sudden movement of camshaft drive gear can occur when the camshaft drive gear is pulled off the taper of the camshaft. To prevent possibly personal injury, be sure that the bolt is installed (finger tight) to restrict the movement of the camshaft drive gear when the camshaft drive gear is pulled off of the taper of the camshaft.
Tighten bolts (10) evenly in order to pull camshaft drive gear (8) off the taper of the camshaft.

Installation of the camshaft timing pin (1) Timing pin
Install the crankshaft timing pin. Remove the camshaft timing pin from the storage location.
Put camshaft timing pin (1) in the timing pin hole, and turn the camshaft until the timing pin goes into the hole in the camshaft.
After the camshaft is in time with the crankshaft, tighten the camshaft drive gear (4). Use the following procedure:
Remove bolts (10) and (12), plate (9) and washer (11) .
Install washer (11) and bolt (12). Tighten bolt (12) by hand.
Remove the crankshaft timing pin and the camshaft timing pin.
