9. Apply liquid gasket to the head mating surtaces of
the No. 1 and No. 6 camshaft holders, then install
them, along with No. 2,3, 4, and 5.
NOTE:
o "1" or "E" marks are stamoed on the camshaft
holders.
. Do not apply oil to the holder mating surface of
camshaft seals.
. Apply liquid gasket to the shaded areas.
. The arrows marked on the camshatt holders
should point to the timing belt.

10. Tighten the camshaft holders temporarily.
. Make sure that the rocker arms are properly
positioned on the valve stems.

camshaft first, th€n work it into the groove around
the outside edges,
NOTE:
. Before installing the rubber seal, thoroughly
clean the seal and the groove.
. When installing, make sure the seal is seated
securely in the corners of the recass€s with no
gap.

17.Apply liquid gask€t to the rubber seal at the eight
corners of the recesses.
NOTE:
. Use liquid gaskst, Part No. 08718 - 0001.
. Check that the mating surfaces are cl€an and dry
before applying liquid gasket.
. Do not install the parts if 20 minutes or mor6
havs elapsod sinco applying liquid gasket.
Instead, reapply liquid gasket after removing old
reaidue.

Check the oDeration of the lost motion assembly by
pushing on the mid rocker arm. The lost motion
assemblv should compress fully and operate
smoothly through its full stroke. Replace the assem-
