BRAKE PRESSURE REGULATOR NOTE: CAUTION: DO NOT adjust pressure regulator with brake pedal depressed. 1) Ensure fuel tank is full and spare tire is in trunk. Raise and support vehicle. Attach Pressure Gauges (VAG 1310) to left front brake caliper and right rear brake caliper/cylinder. Bleed pressure gauge and hoses through valve on gauges. 2) Lower vehicle and bounce rear of vehicle several times. Press on brake pedal until front brake pressure gauge reading equals pressure listed in 1st Reading column of BRAKE PRESSURES table. Hold brake pressure. Rear brake pressure gauge reading should be within specification in 1st Reading column of BRAKE PRESSURES table. 3) Release brake pedal. Press on brake pedal until front brake pressure gauge reading equals pressure listed in 2nd Reading column of BRAKE PRESSURES table. Hold brake pressure. Rear brake pressure gauge reading should be within specification in 2nd Reading column of BRAKE PRESSURES table. 4) Adjust spring tension on brake pressure regulator if rear brake pressure for 1st and/or 2nd reading is not within specification. Decreasing spring tension will reduce system pressure. Increasing spring tension will increase system pressure. Recheck regulator pressures and re-adjust regulator as needed.

Checking Timing An access plug is provided in the cam drive belt cover so that camshaft timing can be checked without removal of the cover or any other parts. 1. Remove the access plug from the cam drive belt cover. 2. Rotate the crankshaft so that the No. 1 piston is rising on compression stroke. 3. Set the crankshaft to TDC by aligning the timing mark on the crank pulley with the TC mark on the belt cover. Always turn the engine in the direction of normal rotation (clockwise, as viewed from the front). Backward rotation may cause the timing belt to jump time, due to the arrangement of the belt tensioner. 4. Look through the access hole in the belt cover to make sure that the timing mark on the cam drive sprocket is lined up with the pointer on the inner belt cover. 5. Install the belt cover access plug. Adjusting Timing Belt SPECIAL SERVICE TOOL(S) REQUIRED Description Crankshaft Belt Tension Adjusting Tool T74P-6254-A 1. Remove the outer timing belt cover as outlined in this section. CAUTION: Attempting to adjust timing belt tension without loosening spring pivot bolt will break Crankshaft Belt Tension Adjusting Tool T74P-6254-A when relieving tension on the belt. 2. If belt timing or tension is incorrect, loosen timing belt spring pivot bolt. 3. Hold tensioner with Camshaft Belt Tension Adjusting Tool T74P-6254-A. 4. While holding tensioner, loosen adjusting bolt and gradually release spring tension. Loosening Timing Belt Tensioner, 2.3L Tool Number 8 — 5. Using adjusting tool, pry tensioner away from belt. While holding, tighten adjusting bolt. There should be no tension on belt. Camshaft Timing Belt, 2.3L I-4 Timing Mark on Camshaft Sprocket Remove the bolts holding the crankshaft position sensor in place and pull the sensor assembly free of the dowel pin. 7. Remove the crankshaft pulley , crankshaft pulley hub and timing belt guide. 8. Remove the drive belt and inspect it for wear or damage. If the belt is damaged, replace it. 9. Remove one spark plug from each cylinder. 10. If not done: a. Loosen tensioner adjusting bolt. b. Using Camshaft Belt Tension Adjusting Tool T74P-6254-A, pry tensioner clockwise against spring tension as far as possible. c. Tighten adjusting bolt to hold tensioner in released position. 11. Align crankshaft so number one piston is at TDC (top dead center) as indicated by timing mark. 12. Line up camshaft sprocket timing mark with inner timing belt cover timing mark and key is pointing down.

Removal CAUTION: Remove the entire clutch hydraulic system from the vehicle as an assembly when installing a new clutch master cylinder assembly (7C522). 1. Disconnect the clutch hydraulic tube from the dash clip. 2. Raise and support the vehicle. For additional information, refer to Section 100-02. 3. Unlock and remove the slave cylinder (7A564) from the transmission. Compress and twist the slave cylinder to unlock it from the transmission. 4. Disconnect the clutch hydraulic tube from the floor pan clip. Position the slave cylinder and hydraulic tube forward below the left engine bank. This will make it easier to unlock the clutch master cylinder from the clutch pedal and support bracket (7B633) by reducing tension on the hydraulic tube. 5. Lower the vehicle. 6. WARNING: The clutch pedal is under spring tension. Unlock the push rod bushing retaining clips and separate the clutch master cylinder push rod from the clutch pedal. 7. Remove and discard the push rod bushing (7526). 8. Remove the switch cover, and remove the clutch pedal position switch (7C534) from the clutch master cylinder push rod. 9. Separate the power distribution box from the bracket to gain access to the clutch master cylinder. 10. Unlock and remove the clutch master cylinder from the clutch pedal and support bracket. Compress and twist the clutch master cylinder clockwise 45 degrees to unlock it from the clutch pedal and support bracket. 11. Remove the clutch hydraulic reservoir from the wiring tray and separate the clutch hydraulic tube from the brake master cylinder assembly. Position the clutch hydraulic reservoir aside. 12. CAUTION: Brake fluid is harmful to painted and plastic surfaces. If brake fluid is spilled onto a painted or plastic surface, wash the surface with water immediately. Remove the clutch hydraulic system from the vehicle. 13. Clean the clutch hydraulic system components to prevent contaminants from entering the hydraulic system. 14. CAUTION: Place a suitable container under the clutch master cylinder. Disconnect the hydraulic tube from the clutch master cylinder. 1. Using a 3/32-inch punch and a hammer, drive out the roll pin, and discard it. 2. Disconnect the hydraulic tube from the clutch master cylinder.

Removal CAUTION: Suspension fasteners are critical parts because they affect the performance of vital components and systems and their failure can result in major service expense. A new part with the same part number must be installed if installation becomes necessary. Do not use a new part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during reassembly to make sure of correct retention of these parts. 1. Remove and discard the nut. Position aside the power steering reservoir. 2. If equipped, remove the retainers and the left upper shock mount cover. 3. Remove the retainers and position aside the EVAP canister purge valve. 4. Disconnect the fluid level sensor connector. 5. Disconnect the brake master cylinder main pressure transducer electrical connector, if equipped. 6. Back out the reservoir bolt to give access to the master cylinder bolt. 7. Remove the two brake master cylinder nuts and position aside the brake master cylinder. 8. Remove and discard the inner and outer nuts. 9. WARNING: Do not remove the center nut. This nut holds the upper spring mount in place and if this nut is removed the spring tension will be released. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury. Remove and discard two nuts.

1. Remove spark plugs (12405). 2. Align crankshaft (6303) so number one piston is at TDC (top dead center) as indicated by timing marks. Refer to illustration. 3. Remove outer timing belt cover as outlined in this section. 4. CAUTION: If you attempt to remove timing belt or adjust tension without loosening both timing belt tensioner adjusting bolt and spring pivot bolt, you will break Camshaft Belt Tension Adjusting Tool T74P-6254-A when you attempt to relieve tension on belt. Loosen timing belt spring pivot bolt. Do not remove. 5. Hold tensioner with Camshaft Belt Tension Adjusting Tool T74P-6254-A. 6. While holding tensioner, loosen adjusting bolt and gradually release spring tension. 7. Using adjusting tool, rotate tensioner, against spring pressure, as far clockwise as possible. While holding, tighten adjusting bolt to hold tensioner away from belt. 8. Remove timing belt. Camshaft Timing Belt, 2.3L I-4 Installation NOTE: Care must be taken during timing belt installation to prevent damage to the inner timing cover.
