Camshaft and crankshaft pulley retaining rods (1.8 and 2.0 liter engines)
1. Camshaft pulley retaining rods
2. Crankshaft pulley fixing rods
1. On all models, align the holes in the camshaft and crankshaft pulleys. The holes are used to secure the crankshaft and camshaft and prevent the pistons from hitting the valves when reinstalling the timing belt or cylinder head. The pulleys are secured by installing the appropriate rods in the aligned holes.
2. Remove the timing belt cover.
3. Raise the front of the vehicle and remove the right wheel.
4. To access the crankshaft pulley mounting bolt, remove the protective cover from the wing. The crankshaft can only be rotated in the direction of its working rotation.

5. Rotate the crankshaft until the hole in the camshaft pulley aligns with the hole in the cylinder head. The holes are aligned when the hole in the camshaft pulley is at the 8 o'clock position.
6. Install a rod with a diameter of 8 mm into the hole of the camshaft pulley (indicated by the arrow). In this case, the hole in the crankshaft pulley should be aligned with the hole in the engine cylinder block, into which it is also necessary to insert a rod with a diameter of 8 mm. It may be necessary to slightly turn the crankshaft to install the rod in the crankshaft pulley.
7. Once the crankshaft pulley is secured with the rod, install a 9.5mm diameter rod into the camshaft pulley hole.
8. The crankshaft and camshaft are now locked in a position that prevents them from rotating.
Models with engine capacity of 1.8 and 2.0 liters
9. Rotate the crankshaft pulley until the holes in the camshaft pulleys align with the corresponding holes in the cylinder head. The holes are aligned when the intake camshaft pulley hole is at the 5 o'clock position and the exhaust camshaft pulley hole is at the 7 o'clock position when viewed from the right side of the engine.

10. After aligning the camshaft pulley holes, insert a 6mm diameter rod or bolt into the crankshaft pulley. In some engines, the hole diameters may be different, so you need to select a rod of such a diameter that it fits tightly into the hole.
11. After fixing the crankshaft with a rod, fix the camshaft pulleys with the corresponding rods (see the figure Rods for fixing the camshaft and crankshaft pulleys (1.8 and 2.0 liter engines).
12. After installing the rods, the crankshaft and camshaft are fixed from turning.
