Use a plastic mallet to install a new key in the crankshaft keyway.
Use Lubriplateா No. 105 or its equivalent to lubricate the outside diameter of the crankshaft gear journal.
Caution: Do not exceed the specified time or temperature. The crankshaft gear and the teeth can be damaged.
Put the gear in an oven heated to 205°C [400°F] for a minimum of 1 hour but no more than 4 hours.
Caution: Always wear protective gloves when handling heated parts. Personal injury can result.
Caution: The timing mark (1) and the part number (2) on the gear must be facing away from the crankshaft after
the gear is installed. Engine damage can result if the gear is installed backwards.
Remove the gear from the oven.
Align the keyway of the gear with the key in the crankshaft, and install the gear within 30 seconds.
Caution: Do not use water or oil to reduce the cooling time. The gear can crack. Allow the air to cool the gear.
