| *1 | Adhesive Tape Sealing Area |
| *2 | Prick a Hole |
| *3 | Adhesive Tape |
Note
Be sure to cover the oil hole completely because air leaks due to insufficient sealing will prevent the lock pin from being released.
Prick a hole in the tape covering the oil hole as shown in the illustration. (Procedure A)
Apply approximately 150 kPa (1.5 kgf/cm2, 22 psi) of air pressure to the hole pricked in procedure A to release the lock pin.
Note
If air leaks out, reattach the adhesive tape.
Cover the oil hole with a piece of cloth when applying air pressure to prevent oil from spraying.
Forcibly turn the camshaft timing gear in the advance direction (counterclockwise).
Tech Tips
Depending on the air pressure applied, the camshaft timing gear may turn in the advance direction without assistance.

| *3 | Adhesive Tape |
Note
Be sure to cover the oil hole completely because air leaks due to insufficient sealing will prevent the lock pin from being released.
Prick a hole in the tape covering the oil hole as shown in the illustration. (Procedure A)
Apply approximately 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/cm2, 28 psi) of air pressure to the hole pricked in procedure A to release the lock pin.
Note
If air leaks out, reattach the adhesive tape.
Cover the oil hole with a piece of cloth when applying air pressure to prevent oil from spraying.
