INSPECTIONCAMSHAFT
h(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.

ROCKER ARM
(1) Visually check the roller and replace if dent, damage, or
seizure is evident.
(2) Check the roller for smooth rotation. Replace if it binds or
there is an excessive play.
(3) Check the valve contact surface for possible damage or
seizure and replace as necessary.
SERVICE POINTS OF REASSEMBLYNOSLGAB10. INSTALLATION OF CAMSHAFT
(1) Apply engine oil to journals and cams of the camshafts.
(2) Install the camshafts on the cylinder head.
Use care not to confuse the intake camshaft with the
exhaust one. The intake camshaft has a slit on its rear
end for driving the crank angle sensor.
(3) Make also sure that the dowel pins on the camshaft
sprocket end are located on the top.
9./8./7./6./4./3. INSTALLATION OF BEARING CAPS
(1) Bearing cap Nos.2 to 5 are of the same shape. At
installation, check with the markings on the caps of capnumber and intake/exhaust identification symbol. Only
“I” or “E” is stamped on No. 1 bearing cap.4I

(4) Check cylinder walls for scratches and seizure. If defects
are evident, correct (bored to oversize) or replace.
(5) Using cylinder gauge, measure the cylinder bore and
cylindricity. If worn badly, correct cylinder to an oversize
and replace piston and piston rings. Measure at the points
shown in illustration.

(2) Measure outside diameter of piston to be used. Measure it
in thrust direction as shown.
(3) Based on measure piston O.D. calculate boring finish
dimension.Boring finish dimension
= Piston O.D. + (clearance
between piston O.D. and cylinder)
- 0.02 mm (.OOOSin.) (honing margin)
(4) Bore all cylinders to calculated boring finish dimension.
CautionTo prevent distortion that may result from temperature
rise during honing, bore cylinders, working from
No.2to No.4 to No. 1 to No. 3.
(5) Hone to final finish dimension (piston O.D. + clearance
between piston O.D. and cylinder).
(6) Check clearance between piston and cylinder.
Clearance between piston and cylinder:
:
0.02-064 mm (AMOS-,001~ in.)
:
0.03-0.05 mm (.OOW-.O020 in.)
NOTEWhen boring cylinders, finish all of four cylinders to same
oversize. Do not bore only one cylinder to an oversize.

Possible cause:,
The driven bevel gear is further away from the drive bevel
gear than necessary.
Remedy:Use a thinner spacer for the driven bevel gear mount
adjustment so that the driven bevel gear is closer to the
drive bevel gear.
NOTE(1) If correct tooth contact cannot be obtained by replace-
ment of spacer for adjusting driven bevel gear mount,
change the spacers for adjustment of drive bevel gear
preload and drive bevel gear mount adjustment to thoseof appropriate thickness as described below and adjust
the tooth contact again.
lIf the driven bevel gear height is still too small whenthe thinnest spacer for driven bevel gear mount
adjustment
[0.13 mm (.005 in.)] is used;
Change the spacer for drive bevel gear mount
adjustment to the next thicker one and change the
spacer for drive bevel gear preload adjustment to
the next thinner one.
lIf the driven bevel gear height is still too large whenthe thickest spacer for driven bevel gear mount
adjustment
[0.52 mm (020 in.)] is used;
Change the spacer for drive bevel gear mount
adjustment to the next thinner one and change the
spacer for drive bevel gear preload adjustment to
the next thicker one.
Repeat above steps until standard tooth contact
pattern is obtained.
(2) If the tooth contact pattern cannot be brought close
,tothe standard pattern by the adjustment described
above, replace the drive bevel gear and driven bevel
gear as a set and adjust the tooth contact again.
