CKP Pulse Plate Replacement
- Remove the front wheels.
- Remove the splash shield (see step 24 on ENGINE REMOVAL ).
- Remove the drive belt (see DRIVE BELT REPLACEMENT ).
- Remove the alternator bracket mounting bolts and loosen the alternator mounting bolt (see step 4 on CAM CHAIN REMOVAL ).
- With A/C: Remove the idler pulley (see step 5 on CAM CHAIN REMOVAL ).
- Turn the crankshaft pulley so its top dead center (TDC) mark lines up with the pointer (see step 8 onCAM CHAIN REMOVAL ).
- Remove the water pump pulley (see step 3 on WATER PUMP REPLACEMENT ).
- Remove the cylinder head cover (see CYLINDER HEAD COVER REMOVAL ).
- Remove the crankshaft pulley (see CRANKSHAFT PULLEY REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION ).
- Remove the oil pan (see OIL PAN REMOVAL ).
- Disconnect the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor connector, then remove the harness clamps (see step 12 on CAM CHAIN REMOVAL ) .
- Support the engine with a jack and wood block under the engine block.NOTE: Do not hit the oil strainer when placing the jack on the edge of the engine block.
- Remove the ground cable, then remove the side engine mount/bracket assembly (see step 14 on CAM CHAIN REMOVAL ).
- Remove the chain case (see step 15 on CAM CHAIN REMOVAL ).
- Remove the CKP pulse plate (A).
- Install the CKP pulse plate.
- Check the chain case oil seal for damage. If the oil seal is damaged, replace the chain case oil seal (see CHAIN CASE OIL SEAL INSTALLATION ).
- Remove all of the old liquid gasket from the chain case mating surfaces, bolt, and bolt holes.
- Clean and dry the chain case mating surfaces.
- Apply liquid gasket, P/N 08717-0004,08718-0001, 08718-0003, or 08718-0009, evenly to the engine block mating surface of the chain case. Install the component within 5 minutes of applying the liquid gasket (see step 14 on
CAM CHAIN INSTALLATION ).NOTE:
- Apply a 1.5 mm wide bead of liquid gasket along the broken lines.
- Apply a 3.0 mm wide bead of liquid gasket to the engine block upper surface contact areas on the chain case.
- If you apply liquid gasket P/N 08718-0012, the component must be installed within 4 minutes.
- If too much time has passed after applying the liquid gasket, remove the old liquid gasket and residue, then reapply new liquid gasket.
- Install the chain case (see step 15 on
CAM CHAIN INSTALLATION ).NOTE:
- Wait at least 30 minutes to allow liquid gasket to cure before filling the engine with oil.
- Do not run the engine for at least 3 hours after installing the chain case.
- Install the side engine mount/bracket assembly, then install the ground cable (see step 17 on CAM CHAIN INSTALLATION ).
- Remove the jack and the wood block.
- Connect the CKP sensor connector, then install the harness clamps (see step 16 on CAM CHAIN INSTALLATION ).
- Install the oil pan (see OIL PAN INSTALLATION ).
- Install the crankshaft pulley (see CRANKSHAFT PULLEY REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION ).
- Install the cylinder head cover (see CYLINDER HEAD COVER INSTALLATION ).
- Install the water pump pulley (see step 3 on WATER PUMP INSPECTION ).
- With A/C: Install the idler pulley (see step 23 on CAM CHAIN INSTALLATION ).
- Install the alternator bracket mounting bolts (see step 24 on CAM CHAIN INSTALLATION ).
- Install the drive belt and adjust it (see DRIVE BELT INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT ).
- Install the splash shield (see step 34 on ENGINE INSTALLATION ).
- Install the front wheels.
- Do the crankshaft position (CKP) pattern clear/CKP pattern learn procedure (see CRANK (CKP) PATTERN CLEAR/CRANK (CKP) PATTERN LEARN ).
