(7) Install and torque the 2 mounting bolts.
Torque: 21N·m (210 kgf·cm, 15 ft·lbf)
2. ASSEMBLE EXHAUST CAMSHAFT
(a) Mount the hexagon wrench head portion of the camshaft in a vise.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to damage the camshaft.
(b) Install the camshaft gear spring (1), camshaft sub −gear
(2) and wave washer (3).
HINT:
Align the pins on the gears with the spring ends.
(c) Using snap ring pliers, install the snap ring.
(d) Insert a service bolt (A) into the service hole of the cam- shaft sub−gear.
(e) Using a screwdriver, align the holes of the camshaft main
gear and sub− gear by turning camshaft sub − gear clock-
wise, and install a service bolt (B).
NOTICE:
Be careful not to damage the camshaft.
3. INSTALL CAMSHAFTS
NOTICE:
Since the thrust clearance of the camshaft is small, the
camshaft must be kept level while it is being installed. If the
camshaft is not kept level, the portion of the cylinder head
receiving the shaft thrust may crack or be damaged, caus-
ing the camshaft to seize or break. To avoid this, the follow-
ing steps should be carried out.

caps are snug with the cylinder head.
(8) Place the No. 2, No. 3, No. 5 and No. 7 bearing caps
in their proper location.
(9) Temporarily tighten these bearing cap bolts, alter- nately tightening the left and right bolts uniformly.
(10) Place the No. 1 bearing cap in its proper location. When doing this, check that there is no gap be-
tween the cylinder head and the contact surface of
bearing cap.
(11) Temporarily tighten the bearing cap bolts, alternate-
ly tightening the left and right bolts uniformly.
(12) Uniformly tighten the 14 bearing cap bolts in several
passes.
Torque: 16 N·m (160 kgf·cm, 12 ft·lbf)
(13) Bring the service bolt installed in the driven sub −
gear upward by turning the hexagon wrench head
portion of the camshaft with a wrench.
(14) Remove the service bolt.
(15) Check that the intake and exhaust camshafts turn smoothly.
