b. Install Tool (B) in the flywheel housing. Use Tool (B) to slowly rotate the engine in the direction of normal rotation,
(counterclockwise as seen from the flywheel end of the engine), until timing bolt (4) can be installed in the flywheel housing and
into the hole in the flywheel.
c. Remove the valve cover from the valve cover base. Check to see if both rocker arms (5) for the No. 1 cylinder can be moved
backward and forward.

NOTE: The No. 1 piston is at the top center compression position (TC) when the timing bolt is installed in the flywheel and both
rocker arms for the No. 1 cylinder can be moved backward and forward. If both rocker arms cannot be moved, the No. 1 piston is
not at the top center compression position (TC). Remove the timing bolt from the flywheel and rotate the engine in the direction
of normal rotation, (counterclockwise as seen from the flywheel end of the engine one full turn 360 degrees, and install the
timing bolt again.

3. Remove the timing bolt, and use Tool (B) to rotate the engine in the opposite direction of normal rotation (clockwise as seen
from the flywheel end of the engine) a minimum of 30 degrees .

NOTE: The timing is correct if Tool (A) and the timing bolt can be installed at the same time. The timing procedure in Systems

5. Put the timing bolt in the timing hole in the flywheel housing. Rotate the crankshaft counterclockwise (as seen from the flywheel

end of the engine) until the fuel pump camshaft is tight against Tool (A). This removes gear clearance from the drive train. If the
bolt can be installed in the timing hole in the flywheel, the timing of the fuel injection is correct.
