CYLINDER HEAD COVER AND CURTAIN
A curtain aiding air/oil separation is installed on
the cylinder head below the cylinder head cover
(Figs. 1 and 2).
REMOVAL
(1) Remove the cylinder head cover bolts (Fig. 2).
(2) Remove cylinder head cover and curtain from
cylinder head. Do not misplace the rubber bumpers
on curtain.
CLEANING
Before installation, clean cylinder head and cover
mating surfaces. Make certain the rails are flat.
CURTAIN INSTALLATION
Install curtain manifold side first with cutouts over
cam towers and contacting cylinder head floor, then
press opposite distributor side into position below cyl-
inder head rail. Curtain is retained in position with rubber
bumpers (Fig. 1).
COVER SEALING AND INSTALLATION
Before installation, clean cylinder head and cover
mating surfaces. Make certain rails are flat. (1) Install new end seals on valve cover.
(2) Apply form-in-place Mopar Silicone Rubber Ad-
hesive Sealant or equivalent gasket material to cyl-
inder head cover rail (Fig. 3). Refer to procedure
detailed in form-in-place gasket section of Standard
Service Procedures, in this Group.
Caution: Do not allow oil or solvents to contact the
timing belt as they can deteriorate the rubber and
cause tooth skipping.
(3) Install curtain, cover and end seal assembly to
head and tighten to 12 N Im (105 in.lbs.) torque.
CYLINDER HEAD COMPONENTSÐIN-VEHICLE
SERVICE
Removal and installation of cylinder head or cam-
shaft require separation of camshaft timing sprocket
from camshaft. To maintain camshaft, intermediate
shaft, and crankshaft timing during service proce-
dures, the timing belt is left indexed on the sprocket
while the assembly is suspended under light tension
(Fig. 4). When removing the sprocket from the camshaft,
you must maintain adequate tension on the sprocket
and belt assembly to prevent the belt from disengag-
ing with the intermediate or crankshaft timing
sprockets. Refer to Timing System and Seals for re-Fig. 2 Cylinder Head Cover and Curtain

Camshaft bearing journals and lobe wear. Lobe
wear should not exceed .25mm (.010 inch). To mea-
sure cam lobe wear (Fig. 8), measure lobe diameter
in two places at the largest diameter (over the nose).
Take first reading with micrometer in unworn area
at the edge of the lobe. Take second reading in the
worn area where rocker arm contacts the lobe. Sub-
tract second reading from the first. The difference is
the cam lobe wear.
CAMSHAFT END PLAY
(1) Oil camshaft journals and install camshaft
without cam followers. Tighten screws to specified
torque. (2) Using a suitable tool, move camshaft as far
rearward as it will go. (3) Zero dial indicator (Fig. 9).
(4) Move camshaft as far forward as it will go.
(5) End play travel: 0.13 - 0.33mm (0.005 - 0.013
inch.). (6) Remove bearing caps and camshaft.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install cam followers in correct order as re-
moved. (2) Align camshaft bearing caps in proper sequence
with Cap No. 1 at timing belt end and Cap No. 5 at
transmission end. Arrows on Caps No. 1, 2, 3, 4
must point toward timing belt to prevent cap break-
age (Fig. 11). (3) Apply Mopar Gasket Maker to No.1 and No.5
bearing cap (Fig. 10). (4) Caps must be installed before camshaft seals
are installed.
LASH ADJUSTER (TAPPET) NOISE
A tappet-like noise may be produced from several
items. Refer to Lash Adjuster and Tappet Noise - Di-
agnosis in Standard Service Procedures, this Group.
VALVE COMPONENTS REPLACEÐCYLINDER HEAD NOT REMOVED
ROCKER ARM AND HYDRAULIC LASH ADJUSTER
REMOVAL
(1) Remove valve cover.
(2) For each rocker arm, rotate cam until base cir-
cle is in contact with rocker arm. Depress valve
spring using Special Tool C-4682 (Fig. 12) and slide
rocker arm out. Keep rocker arms in order for reas-
sembly. (3) Remove hydraulic lash adjuster.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install hydraulic lash adjusters making sure
that adjusters are at least partially full of oil. This is
indicated by little or no plunger travel when the lash
adjuster is depressed. (2) Rotate cam until base circle is in contact posi-
tion with rocker arm. Depress valve spring with Spe-
cial Tool C-4682 (Fig. 12) and slide rocker arm in
place. Keep rockers in order. It is possible for the

sure the locks are in their proper location. (3) Install valve cover as previously outlined in
this section.
VALVE SPRINGS AND VALVE STEM SEALS
REMOVAL
(1) Remove rocker arms as previously outlined in
this section. (2) Rotate crankshaft until piston is at TDC on
compression. (3) With air hose attached to adapter tool installed
in spark plug hole, apply 90-120 psi air pressure. (4) Using Special Tool C-4682 (Fig. 12) compress
valve springs and remove valve locks. (5) Remove valve spring.
(6) Remove valve stem seal by gently prying side-
to-side with a screwdriver blade. Once dislodged from
guide post, seal may be easily removed.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Flexible Fuel Vehicle Valve use unique
valve stem oil seals they are green in color. Stan-
dard valve stem oil seals are NOT to be interchanged
with Flexible Fuel Vehicles engines.
(1) Install valve seals (Fig. 13) as outlined in step
(2) of Valve Gear Reassembly - After Valve Ser-
vice in this section.
(2) Using Special Tool C-4682 compress valve
springs only enough to install locks. Correct align-
ment of tool is necessary to avoid nicking valve
stems (air pressure required), piston at TDC. (3) Install rocker arms as previously outlined in
this section.
CYLINDER HEAD
REMOVAL
(1) Perform fuel system pressure release procedure
before attempting any repairs. Refer to Fuel Sys-
tem Group 14 (2) Disconnect negative battery cable. Drain cool-
ing system. Refer to Cooling System, Group 7. (3) Remove air cleaner and disconnect all vacuum
lines, electrical wiring and fuel lines from throttle
body. (4) Remove throttle linkage.
(5) Loosen power steering pump and remove belt.
(6) Remove power brake vacuum hose from intake

housing and ROTATEbracket from stud. DO NOT
bend the bracket or tube. (12) See Solid Mount Compressor Bracket in
STANDARD SERVICE PROCEDURES, this Group. (13) Remove cylinder head bolts.
INSPECT HEAD AND CAMSHAFT BEARINGJOURNALS
(1) Cylinder head must be flat within 0.1mm (.004
inch) (Fig. 14). (2) Inspect camshaft journals for scoring and jour-
nal caps for oversize markings. When servicing cyl-
inder head or camshaft, it is necessary to be certain
that oversized camshafts are used only in oversized
heads. Identify oversize components as follows:
