ENGINE - K SERIES KV6

OVERHAUL 12-3-111

27. Remove 5 bolts and 2 pillar bolts securing 

engine front mounting plate to cylinder block.

28. Remove 2 bolts securing IRD support bracket 

to engine front mounting plate.

29. With care, release and remove front mounting 

plate from engine.

30. Fit a suitable 1.5 mm diameter pin through hole 

in tensioner body and into hole in plunger.

NOTE: If holes in body and plunger are not 
aligned, move tensioner backplate using a 
broad bladed screwdriver; this will move the 
plunger sufficiently to align the holes and allow 
the pin to be inserted.

31. Remove and discard 2 Patchlok bolts securing 

tensioner to cylinder block and remove 
tensioner.

CAUTION: Exercise great care when 
removing bolts, do not apply excessive 
torque. If bolts appear to be seized, apply 
suitable anti-seize lubricant prior to 
removing bolts. DO NOT loosen Allen screw 
securing tensioner pulley.

32. If camshaft timing belt is to be refitted, mark 

direction of rotation on timing belt before 
removal.

33. With care, ease camshaft timing belt from 

gears using fingers only and remove timing 
belt.

CAUTION: Do not rotate crankshaft or 
camshafts with timing belt removed.

CAUTION: Camshaft timing belt must be 
replaced if cylinder head is to be removed or 
new drive gears, tensioner or coolant pump 
are to be fitted. Camshaft timing belts must 
be stored and handled with care. Always 
store a camshaft timing belt on its edge with 
a bend radius greater than 50 mm (2.0 in). 
Do not use a camshaft timing belt that has 
been twisted or bent double as this will 
damage the reinforcing fibres. Do not use a   
camshaft timing belt if debris other than belt 
dust is found in timing belt covers. Do not 
use a camshaft timing belt if partial engine 
seizure has occurred. Do not use a 
camshaft timing belt if mileage exceeds 
72,000 km (45,000 miles). Do not use an oil 
or coolant contaminated timing belt, cause 
of contamination must be rectified.

34. Remove and discard LH and RH exhaust 

camshaft cap seals.
