der head as shown in the illustration so that the No.
1 and No. 4 cylinder cam lobes face downward.
(3) Lightly push the camshaft towards the front without
applying excessive force.
(4) Place the No. 2 and No. 5 bearing caps in their prop-
er location.
(5) Temporarily tighten these bearing cap bolts uni- formly and alternately in several passes until the
bearing caps are snug with the cylinder head.
(6) Place the No. 3, No. 4, No. 6 and No. 7 bearing caps
in their proper location.
(7) Temporarily tighten these bearing cap bolts, alter- nately tightening the left and right bolts uniformly.
(8) 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.
(9) Temporarily tighten the bearing cap bolts, alternate-
ly tightening the left and right bolts uniformly.
(10) Uniformly tighten the 14 bearing cap bolts in several
passes.
Torque: 16 N·m (160 kgf·cm, 12 ft·lbf)
(b) Install the exhaust camshaft. (1) Set the timing mark (2 dot marks) of the camshaftdrive gear at approx. 35 ° angle by turning the hexa-
gon wrench head portion of the intake camshaft

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.

drive and driven gears are in straight line on the cylinder
head surface as shown in the illustration.
If not, turn the crankshaft 1 revolution (360° ) and align the
marks as above.
8. CHECK AND ADJUST VALVE CLEARANCE (See page
EM−4)
Turn the camshaft and position the cam lobe upward and check
and adjust the valve clearance.
