1 Follow the procedure to fit the idler shaft,
paragraphs 1 and 2 above.
2 Put the drill guide (A1) into position in the right hand
(seen from the front face of the bearing cap) setscrew
hole of the bearing cap. Ensure that the countersink
in the guide faces to the outside and that the edge of
the guide is aligned with the front edge of the bearing
cap. Use a 5/16 UNF setscrew (A3) and a plain
washer (A2) to retain the guide in position.
3 Drill a 6,35 mm (0.25 in) diameter hole in the
bearing cap 25,4 mm (1.0 in) deep.
4 Remove the drill and the drill guide.
5 Fit a pin, part number 2116087, into the bearing cap

To remove and to fit the idler shaft
- For four cylinder engines:
1 Support the front of the bearing cap. Put a suitable
adaptor on the small diameter of the idler shaft and
press the idler shaft out of the bearing cap.
2 Ensure that the idler shaft and the hole in the
bearing cap are clean. Support the rear of the bearing
cap and ensure that the cap will not move when the
idler shaft is pressed in. Apply POWERPART
Retainer to the small diameter of the idler shaft. The
idler shaft for four cylinder engines is not retained by
a pin.
If the idler shaft (B3) has an oil hole ensure that the
hole (B2) in the idler shaft is at the top and that the flat

the bearing cap.
Enter the chamfer of the idler shaft into the hole.
