Hyundai Genesis 2.0T Timing Chain Install EM-31: Valve Cover & Pulley Torques
Timing system procedure for installing the cylinder head cover and crankshaft pulley with torque sequence and specs.
Part of 2010-2016 Hyundai Genesis Coupe Service Procedures
This is page EM-31 from a Hyundai factory service manual's Timing System section, covering the final reassembly steps after timing chain installation. Step 10 details installing the cylinder head cover: removing hardened sealant between the timing chain cover and cylinder head, applying Loctite 5900H sealant with a 2.5 ± 0.5 mm (0.098 ± 0.019 in.) bead width, assembling within 5 minutes, and avoiding firing/blow-out tests for 30 minutes afterward. Cover bolts are torqued in two steps (3.9-5.9 N.m, then 7.8-9.8 N.m) following an 18-position numbered sequence shown in a diagram. Step 11 covers installing the crankshaft pulley (torque 166.7-176.5 N.m / 122.9-130.2 lb-ft) with a NOTICE to hold the crankshaft using SST 09231-2M000 and 09231-2J210. Step 12 gives torques for the water pump pulley (9.8-11.8 N.m) and idler (53.9-63.7 N.m), and Step 13 covers the tensioner bracket assembly (39.2-44.1 N.m). Diagrams (illustration codes SNFEM8045D, SBKEM9105D, SBKEM9102D) show the sealant path, bolt sequence, and front accessory pulley layout with callouts A-D. A reader learns all torque specs and sealant procedures for reinstalling the valve cover and front pulleys after a timing chain job.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the torque spec for the crankshaft pulley bolt?
- 166.7 ~ 176.5 N.m (17 ~ 18 kgf.m, 122.9 ~ 130.2 lb-ft). The crankshaft must be held with SST 09231-2M000 and 09231-2J210 when installing the bolt.
- What sealant is used on the cylinder head cover and how should it be applied?
- Loctite 5900H with a bead width of 2.5 ± 0.5 mm (0.098 ± 0.019 in.). The cover must be assembled within 5 minutes of applying sealant, and hardened old sealant between the timing chain cover and cylinder head must be removed first.
- What is the cylinder head cover bolt torque sequence?
- Bolts are tightened in two steps following the numbered 1-18 sequence shown in the diagram: Step 1 is 3.9 ~ 5.9 N.m (2.9 ~ 4.3 lb-ft) and Step 2 is 7.8 ~ 9.8 N.m (5.8 ~ 7.2 lb-ft).
- What are the water pump pulley and idler torque specs?
- Water pump pulley (B): 9.8 ~ 11.8 N.m (7.2 ~ 8.7 lb-ft). Idler (C): 53.9 ~ 63.7 N.m (39.8 ~ 47.0 lb-ft).
- How long after installing the cylinder head cover before running the engine?
- The firing and/or blow out test should not be performed within 30 minutes after the cylinder head cover is assembled.
