Where is balance shaft plug?

[bob123131]

Trying to check my balance shaft belt due to vibration after timing belt change, but cant find plug. I have vfaq instructions, but still cant find it.

It's a 14mm bolt on the back side of the block, you kind of have to search around for it, just look for a bolt that has "why is this here" all over it haha... i didnt find mine until i pulled the engine out and loosened it and saw that it went through to the balance shaft. I always just set the oil pump and see which way it turns when you let go of it... but i suppose you have the timing belt on, so you can't really go through and do that.. but yeah just search for a 14 mm bolt.. i think its about 1/4 or 1/3 of the lentgth across the engine from the timing belt side. i hope i helped!
