Install the oil pump cover to the balance shaft housing. Tighten the bolts to 54 Nm (40 ft. lbs.) . Install the balance shaft chain tensioner. Important: You must use a brass feeler gauge in order to obtain correct measurements. A steel gauge will not conform to the guide and will not provide correct measurements.
