The admirable communique is that Honda's D-series Engine does enjoy a damp pump -- on the contrary it's all charitable of downhill from there. For reasons admitted particular to the manufacturers, Honda chose to cloak the D-series' inundate pump extreme the engine's timing establish. While this can pose a botheration during installation, you'll hold the biggest paranoia after you acquire the drool pump installed -- when you include to reassemble half the engine before you asset away if or not it leaks. On the other hand at least you've yet got your health.
Instructions
1. Jack up the front of the motorcar, install jack stands under the thing and remove the left front rotate. While you're under there, slide a jack stand or a fix of blocks tightly under the Engine, with a block between the jack stand and the oil pan provided you're using a jack stand. You'll be removing one of the engine mounts following. Remove the four bolts from the splash shield encircling the revolve husky to access the crankshaft.
2. Disconnect the counteractive battery cable. Loosen the through-bolt on the alternator and adjust it incoming to remove the region. Remove the AC/power steering sash accustoming pulley, and pull the girth off with it. Unbolt the endowment steering pump and establish it off to the side, then unbolt the endowment steering bracket from the left front side of the block.
3. Remove the vertical Ten mm seed and bolt on the upper engine back where it connects to the engine, then remove the mount through-bolt and the mount itself. Remove the valve comprehend to expose the camshaft.
4. Rotate the crankshaft until the "TDC" objective on the crankshaft lines up with the timing pointer on the engine block. Stare at the valves on the amount one cylinder, the one consequent to the front of the engine where you're working. Both valves should be up and in the closed position. Cook not rotate the crankshaft after this end.
Install the Eight mm power steering pump bolts using Seventeen foot-pounds, bolt the pulley back onto the pump, and reinstall the pump belt and pulley bracket.13. Check the belt tension. Reconnect the lower radiator hose, then refill the engine with a 50/50 mix of water and coolant.
Loosen the accustoming bolt in the centre of the timing girdle tensioner even-handed above the crankshaft. Proof for the "up" location on the cam sprocket and the two reference marks. The "up" end should be perfectly vertical to the centre bolt, and the two reference marks on either side should wrinkle up with the top edges of the cylinder imagination. The crankshaft should even be at TDC or "lowest point degrees."
7. Remove the lower radiator hose from the radiator and remove the fluid into a grasp pan. Here comes the accessible cut: Remove the four Six mm bolts that secure the irrigate pump to the block, extremely as the unmarried Ten mm bolt that runs down the alternator bracket and bathe pump. Thoroughly Disinfected the block with a degreasing agent. An unquestionably Disinfected mating surface and dewy O-ring are crucial to clinch against the leaks you'll asset lone after you arouse everything levy back well-balanced.
8. Install the current O-ring and drool pump, and torque the Six mm bolts to Five foot-pounds in a crisscross figure. Re-torque them all to Nine foot-pounds in the corresponding marking. This two-step channels isn't really required, but it helps ward off leaks.
9. Inspect the timing belt for cracks and splits, and look closely around the rounded teeth for excess wear. If the belt looks even slightly worn, then it's cheap insurance to replace it now. Slide the timing belt back on, and triple-check that the crank is at TDC and the cam sprocket reference marks line up with the top of the head. Temporarily tighten the adjustment bolt on the tensioner to Thirty three foot-pounds.
10. Install the rubber seals on your lower timing cover, and install the cover itself; the bolts get Seven foot-pounds of torque. Install the crankshaft pulley and tighten the bolt to Eighty three foot-pounds. At this point, it doesn't matter if you turn the crank a little since you're about to turn it anyway. Reset the crank at TDC, then loosen the tensioner adjuster bolt through the timing cover. Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise by three teeth on the cam sprocket to tension the belt.
11. Torque the adjustment bolt to Thirty three foot pounds, and tighten the crank bolt to Eighty three foot-pounds if it broke loose while turning the crankshaft. Install the upper timing belt cover and rubber seal, and torque the bolts to Seven foot-pounds. Reinstall the valve cover with a new gasket, and torque the bolts to Seven foot-pounds.
12. Put the engine mount back on, tightening all fasteners to Forty foot-pounds. Torque the power steering bracket bolts and lower alternator bolt to Thirty three foot-pounds, and the upper adjustment bolt to Seventeen foot-pounds after you get the belt installed.5. Remove the crankshaft centre pulley; you may require to convenience an energy wrench for Emigration, on account of it'll incision the odds of accidentally turning the crankshaft. Slide the pulley off the crankshaft, then remove the upper and lower timing encompass bolts and the timing covers themselves.6.
Open the coolant bleed bolt on the engine block, right between the back of the valve cover and the throttle body.
14. Connect the negative battery cable and start the engine. Check for leaks, listen for bad sounds, refill the radiator as necessary, then close the bleed bolt when it stops taking fluid. Check the ignition timing and adjust as necessary. Reinstall the splash shield and wheel, lower the car to the ground, and treat yourself to something frosty.
