Sequence of works
1. Jack up the car as if you were changing a rear wheel, put it in 4th or 5th gear. The crankshaft will turn if the rear wheel turns freely. You will achieve the same effect if you push the car forward a little.
Fig. 4.17. Turning the crankshaft with a socket wrench 27
You can also turn the engine with a 27 mm socket wrench, placing it on the crankshaft pulley nut (Fig. 4.17). The engine should only be turned clockwise.
2. Remove the cylinder head cover and turn the engine so that the cams of the first cylinder on the camshaft are looking vertically upward. For more accurate installation, turn the crankshaft slightly in one direction or another so that the mark on the drive belt pulley coincides with the mark on the block.
3. To ensure correct position, rotate the crankshaft back and forth until the TDC mark on the pulley aligns with the pointer on the engine block.
