What is the crankshaft pulley bolt torque shown on this page?

83 - 93 N·m (8.5 - 9.5 kg-m, 61 - 69 ft-lb).

What precautions are listed before installing the timing belt?

Do not bend or twist the belt; do not rotate the crankshaft or camshaft separately after belt removal or the valves will hit the pistons; keep oil, water and dust off the belt, pulleys and tensioner; make sure No. 1 cylinder is at T.D.C. on its compression stroke; position the belt in the correct direction; and adjust belt tension with all spark plugs removed.

What torque is specified for the water pump area fasteners?

The diagram shows 15 - 17 N·m (1.5 - 1.7 kg-m, 11 - 12 ft-lb) and 4 - 5 N·m (0.4 - 0.5 kg-m, 2.9 - 3.6 ft-lb) near the water pump assembly.

What units are the torque values in?

N·m, with kg-m and ft-lb equivalents shown in parentheses.

This scanned service-manual page, titled "TIMING BELT," presents precautions and an exploded parts diagram for the timing belt system. Six bulleted precautions instruct the technician not to bend or twist the timing belt; not to rotate the crankshaft or camshaft separately after belt removal (or the valves will hit the pistons); to keep oil, water, and dust off the belt, pulleys, and tensioner; to ensure the No. 1 cylinder is at T.D.C. on its compression stroke before installing the belt; to position the belt in the correct direction; and to adjust belt tension with all spark plugs removed. The exploded illustration (figure SEM429E) identifies components: timing belt, upper dust cover and gasket, lock washer, camshaft pulley, tensioner and tensioner spring, crankshaft sprocket, crankshaft pulley, lower dust cover, water pump assembly, and cylinder block, with a vehicle-front orientation arrow. Torque specifications in N·m (kg-m, ft-lb) are given at several fastener locations: 9-12 (0.9-1.2, 6.5-8.7), 4-5 (0.4-0.5, 2.9-3.6) at two locations, 15-17 (1.5-1.7, 11-12), and 83-93 (8.5-9.5, 61-69) for the crankshaft pulley bolt. The page is numbered EM-4 (Engine Mechanical section).
