Tercel EZ
rod bearing Toyota tercel 87
the torque for the cam shaft are 9lbs/foot
600 foot pounds
33 ft-lb
make sure you have a diagram, use a long box end wrench to torque the tensioner which is near the top. When you rotate the bolt head, it will relax the tensioner. Remove the belt and then replace around all components except the tensioner. Push on the tensioner wrench again to make room for the belt to go over tensioner.
What specs do you need? Torque for the gears or caps? Dimensions? TDC timing marks?
As per Haynes Manual for Toyota Tercel 1987-1994: First round (in sequence....see manual) tighten to 22 ft/lbs, then second round tighten to 36 ft/lbs, then go back in third round and tighten each bolt another 90 degrees (or a 1/4 of a turn)
There are 2 different torque specs. for different bolts, some are 96in-lbs. others are 18ft-lbs. see link below it has a diagram show which are which.
This is the procedure for installing the timing belt, and contains the info on where all marks need to be set for proper timing: Install : 1.Install tensioner pulley 2.Pull tensioner pulley to its furthest point and tighten lock bolt. 3.Check that timing mark on timing belt pulley is aligned with timing mark on engine http://msw.kiausa.com/data/manual/sh...G/lc3b620a.gif 4.Check that "I" mark on intake camshaft pulley is aligned with mark on seal plate and "E" mark on exhaust camshaft pulley is aligned with mark on seal plate. http://msw.kiausa.com/data/manual/sh...G/lc3b620b.gif 5.Install timing belt onto timing belt pulley first, then idler pulley, exhaust camshaft pulley, intake camshaft pulley, and tensioner pulley in that order. 6.Check that there is no looseness in belt between idler pulley and exhaust camshaft pulley or between intake and exhaust camshaft pulleys. 7.Loosen tensioner pulley lock bolt and allow tensioner spring to apply tension to timing belt. 8.Tighten tensioner pulley lock bolt to specified torque. Tightening torque:28~38 lb-ft (38~51 N
You need to go to a car parts store, and get a repair manual for your car. They cost about $16.00 Or, go to a Public Library. Call this number...800-352-3943
As far as I know, it is exactly the same as the Tercel which preceded it -- 65 -70 lb-ft. I've had no problems using this spec on my own 2001 Echo.
