Removal
Engine removal is not required for this procedure
!!!s@ Make sure iacks and salety stands are
f ta"eata"ea propetty and hoist brackets are attached to the
correct positions on the engine.
CAUTION:
. Use tender covels to avoid damaging painted sul-
faces.
o To avoid damage, unplug the wiling connectors
carefully while holding the connector portion to
avoid damage.
. To avoid damaging the cylinder head, wait until the
engine coolant temperature drops below 100"F
{38"C} before loossning the tetaining bolts.
NOTE:
o Mark all wiring and hoses to avoid misconnectlon
Also, be sure that they do not contact other wiring or
hoses, or interfere with other parts.
. Inspect the timing belt before removing the cylinder
h ead.
. Turnthe crankshaft pu lley so that the No. lpistonisat
top dead center (see Page 6-21)
'1. Disconnect the negative terminal from the battery'
Drain the engine coolant (see page'10-7).
a Remove the radiator cap to speed draining.
Remove the intake air duct and air cleaner housing
(see page 5 3).
Remove the mounting bolt and lock bolt. then
remove the power steering (P/S) pump belt and
pump (see page 5'5).
Loosen the idler pulley center nut and adjusting
bolt' then remove the air conditioning (A'lc) com-
pressor belt (see Page 5-6).

1. Loosen the adjusting screws.
2. Unscrew the camshaft holder bolts, then,removethe rocker arm assembly.
NOTE:
a Unscrew the camshaft holder bolts two turns at at,me, in a crisscross pattern, to prevent damao_ing the valves or rocker arm assembly.. When removing the rocker arm assembly, do notremove the camshaft holder bolts. The bolts willkeep the camshaft holders, the springs and therocker arms on the shaft.

Lightly tap the end of each valve stem two or three
times with a plastic mallet to ensure proper seating
of the valve and valve keepers.

Installation
CAUTION:
. Make sure that all tockers are in alignment with their
valvgs when torquing the rocket assembly bolts,. Valve locknuls should be loosened and adiusting
screws backed off bofore installation.
. To prevont tho rocker arm a$smbly from coming
apad, l6av€ the camshaft holder bohs in the holdeB.
1. After wiping down the camshaft, camshaft seal andjournals in the cylinder head, lubricate both sur-
faces and install the camshaft.
2. Clean and install the oil control orifice with a new
O-ring.
CAMSHAFT SEALSeal housing surface should be dry.Apply a light coat of oil to camshaftand inner lip of seal.
3. Turn the camshaft until its keyway is facing up (No.

No.5 camshaft holders.- Apply liquid gasket to the shaded areas
Set the rocker arm assemblY in place and loosely
installthe bolts.- Make sure that the rocker arms are properly posi-
tioned on the valve stems.
Tighten each bolt two turns at a time in the sequence
shown below to ensure that the rockers do not bind
on the valves.

lnstallation
lnstallthe cylinder head in the reverse order of removal:
NOTE:
. Always use a new head gasket.
. Cylinder head and cylinder block surface must be
clean.
. "UP" mark on the camshaft pulley should be at the top
. Turn the crankshaft so the No. 1 piston is at TDC (see
page 6-20).
. Clean the oil control orifice before installing.
a Do not use the upper cover and lower cover to store
removeo rlems.
Clean the upper cover and lower cover before instal-
taUon.

Adjustment
NOTE:
. Valves should be adjusted only when the cylinder
head temperaturs is less than 100'F (38'C)'
. After adjusting, retorque the crankshaft pulley bolt to
177 N.m (18.0 kgf'm, 130 lbt'ft)
1. Remove the cylinder head cover'
NOTE: Refer to page G86 when installing the cylin-
der head cover.
2. Set No. 1 pi$on at TDC. The "UP" mark on the pullsy
should be at the top, and TDC grooves on the pulley
should align with the pointer on the back cover' TDC
grooves {white paint) on the crankshaft pulley should
align with the pointer on the timing belt lower cover'
