Removing the drive belt

The following operations are necessary because the engine uses a

serpentine drive system with auto-tensioner.

1. Insert a 12.7sq spinner handle into the auto-tensioner tool hole,

and turn the auto-tensioner in an anti-clockwise direction before

it reaches the stopper.

2. Align hole A and hole B, insert an L-shaped hexagonal Allen

Key, to hold the position, and remove the drive belt.

Caution

If planning to re-use the drive belt, ensure that it will be

refitted the same way round, by marking the back of the belt

with chalk arrows indicating the direction of movement.
