7.INSTALLATION OF RADIATOR UPPER HOSE
Align the mating marks (of the radiator hose and hose
clamp), and then, while applying force in the direction of
the arrow in the illustration, set the hose clamp to the
trace marks (on the hose) remaining from the prior
connection.
Caution
Be sure to install the hose clamp at the trace marks (onthe hose) remaining from the prior connection.
5. CONNECTION OF FUEL HIGH PRESSURE HOSE
When connecting the fuel high-pressure hose to the
delivery pipe, apply a coating of gasoline to the hose union,and insert so that the O-ring is not damaged.

9. REMOVAL OF ROCKER ARM AND SHAFT ASSEMBLYBefore removing the rocker arm and shaft assembly, use
the special tool to ensure that the lash adjuster doesn’t fall
out.
Caution
Put the rocker arms and lash adjusters in order in
cylinder No. separated places with clear distinction
between the intake and exhaust ones to prevent
confusion.
INSPECTION
CAMSHAFT
NOBLCDDI
(1) Visually check the camshaft journal surfaces and replace if
damage or seizure is evident.
If the journal is seized, check the cylinder head for possibledamage. Check also for clogged oil holes in the cylinder
head.
(2) Check cams for excessive wear and damage and replace if
defects are evident. Measure the cam height and replace ifthe limit is not reached.
Standard value: 35.91 mm (1.4138 in.)
Limit: 35.41 mm (1.3941 in.)SERVICE POINTS OF

11. INSTALLATION OF OIL SEAL
(1) Apply engine oil to oil seal lip.
(2) Using the special tool, drive the camshaft oil seal into
the cylinder head.

ENGINE <2.0L DOHC Engine>
SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES pi
CHECKING COMPRESSION PRESSURENOSFFAH(1) Before checking compression, ensure that engine oil, the
starter motor, and battery are all in good condition.
(2) Start the engine and wait until engine coolant temperature
has risen to
85-95°C (185-205°F).
(3) Stop the engine and pull the spark plug cables.
(4) Remove the spark plugs.
(5) Crank the engine
to. remove any foreign objects in the
cylinders.
Caution
Cover the spark plug holes with shop towel, etc., in
order to keep expelled foreign objects from flying out,and keep away from the holes. When measuring
compression with water, oil, or fuel having entered the
cylinder through a crack, etc., these will come flying
out of the spark plug hole hot and fast, so be sure to
take the proper precautions.(6) Set the compression gauge to the spark plug hole.
(7) Holding the throttle valve full open, crank the engine and
measure compression.
Limit:
[250-400 rpm]6
kPa (114 psi) [250-400 rpml-(8) Perform 6 and 7 above for all the cylinders, ensuring that
compression pressure differential for each of the cylinders
is within the specified limit.
Differential limit: Max. 100 kPa (14 psi)(9) If a cylinder’s compression or pressure differential exceeds
the limit, add a small amount of oil through the spark plug
hole and repeat steps (6)-(8).
@If the addition of oil brings compression up, it is possiblethat there is poor contact between the piston ring and
cylinder wall.
@ If not compression does not come up, valve seizure,
poor valve seating, or a compression leak from the
gasket are all possible.‘I
