      *a Clearance
      *b Correct
      *c Incorrect

      Visually check the belt for cracks, oiliness or wear. Check that the belt does not touch the bottom of the pulley groove.If necessary, replace the belt.

    2. B003RS5C01
      *a Crankshaft Pulley
      *b Vane Pump Pulley
      B003R2S Measuring Point for Belt Deflection

      Check the drive belt deflection by pressing on the belt at the point indicated in the illustration with 98 N (10 kgf, 22 lbf) of force.

      Standard Drive Belt Deflection
      Item Specified Condition
      New belt 7.5 to 9.5 mm (0.296 to 0.374 in.)
      Used belt 9 to 13 mm (0.355 to 0.511 in.)

      If necessary, adjust the drive belt deflection.

    3. Using a belt tension gauge, check the drive belt tension.

      Standard Drive Belt Deflection
      Item Specified Condition
      New belt 441 to 539 N(45 to 55 kgf, 99.2 to 121 lbf)
      Used belt 196 to 343 N(20 to 35 kgf, 44.1 to 77.1 lbf)

      If the belt tension is not as specified, adjust it.
