Components C & D
Assemble components C as shown and fit them onto the camshaft pulleys so 2 of the 6mm alignment pins (D) can be fitted through the cups and into the camshaft pulleys and into the cylinder head. Ensure the pins (D) are fully engaged with the cylinder head.
Using an 8mm Allen key release the tension on the belt tensioner and insert the 3rd 6mm alignment pin (D) into the tensioner to lock it in its retracted position.
