Scheme 245
- Inspect belt for cracks, fraying, wear or oil adhesion. If necessary, replace with a new one.
- Inspect drive belt deflections by applying 98 N (10 kg-f, 22 lb-f) on the belt midway between pulleys as shown.
- Measure the belt tension using Tool at the locations as shown. Tool number : BT-3373-F NOTE: Inspect drive belt deflection or tension when engine is cold. Adjust if belt deflections exceed the limit or if belt tension is not within specifications.

OUTER DIAMETER OF MAIN BEARING CAP BOLTS
Check specifications for the reuse of the main bearing cap bolts.
Scheme 332
- Measure d1 and d2 as shown.
- For d2, select the minimum diameter in the measuring area.
- If the difference between d1 and d2 exceeds the limit, replace the bolts for assembly. Limit (d1 - d2) : 0.11 mm (0.0043 in)
Scheme 333
- Measure outer diameter d as shown. Standard : 7.90 - 8.00 mm (0.3110 - 0.3150 in) Limit : 7.75 mm (0.3051 in)
- When the value of d exceeds the limit (when it becomes thinner) replace the bolt with a new one.
DRIVE PLATE
