Tightening torque :
9.8 - 11.8 N.m (1.0 - 1.2 kgf.m, 7.2 - 8.7 lb-ft)

3.
Install the timing chain tensioner arm (A).
Tightening torque :
9.8 - 11.8 N.m (1.0 - 1.2 kgf.m, 7.2 - 8.7 lb-ft)

4.
Install the timing chain tensioner (A) and then remove the timing chain tensioner fixing pin.
Tightening torque :
9.8 - 11.8 N.m (1.0 - 1.2 kgf.m, 7.2 - 8.7 lb-ft)

5.
Install the cam to cam guide (A).
Tightening torque :
9.8 - 11.8 N.m (1.0 - 1.2 kgf.m, 7.2 - 8.7 lb-ft)

7.
Install the timing chain cover.
(Refer to Timing System - "Timing Chain Cover")
8.
Install the other parts in the reverse order of removal.
  
Refill engine with engine oil.
Refill a transaxle with fluid.
Refill a radiator and a reservoir tank with engine coolant.
Clean battery posts and cable terminals and assemble.
Inspect for fuel leakage.
After assemble the fuel line, turn on the ignition switch (do not operate the starter) so that the fuel pump runs for approximately two seconds and fuelline pressurizes.
Repeat this operation two or three times, then check for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line.
Refill radiator and reservoir tank with engine coolant.
Bleed air from the cooling system.
