   2. Tighten an additional 90°
5. Install the timing chain guides and tighten the bolts to 89 inch lbs. (10 Nm).
6. Preposition the camshafts:
   1. Rotate the LH camshaft until the timing mark is approximately at 12 o'clock.
   2. Tighten the Camshaft Position Aligner to maintain camshaft prepositioning.
   3. Rotate the RH camshaft until the timing mark is approximately at 11 o'clock.
   4. Tighten the Camshaft Position Aligner to maintain camshaft prepositioning.
7. Position the crankshaft with the Crankshaft Holding Tool, then remove the tool.
8. Install the crankshaft sprocket, making sure the flange faces forward.
9. Install the lower end of the LH timing chain, aligning the timing marks.
10. Install the LH timing chain on the camshaft sprocket with the 2 chain (marked) links and the timing marks aligned.
    
    WARNING

    The camshaft sprocket can jump time causing engine damage if the Crankshaft Holding Tool is not secured.
    
    
    
    NOTE

    Be sure the chain link and crankshaft sprocket timing marks are aligned.
    
    
    
    NOTE

    The lower half of the timing chain must be positioned above the dowel.
11. Install the RH (outer) timing chain on the crankshaft sprocket.
12. Position the timing chain on the camshaft sprocket. Make sure the 2 copper-colored (marked) links align with the camshaft sprocket timing mark.
    
    NOTE

    The LH timing chain tensioner arm has a bump near the dowel hole, for identification.
13. Position the LH and RH timing chain tensioner arms on the dowel pins and install the timing chain tensioners and tighten the bolts to 18 ft. lbs. (25 Nm).
14. Remove the retaining clips from the RH and LH timing chain tensioners.
15. Check for correct alignment of all timing marks.
16. Remove the Camshaft Position Aligner from the camshafts.
17. Install the crankshaft sensor ring on the crankshaft.
