(d) Using a soft brush and solvent, thoroughly clean the cylin-
der head.
3. INSPECT CYLINDER HEAD
(a) Inspect for flatness. Using a precision straight edge and thickness gauge,
measure the surfaces contacting the cylinder block and
the manifolds for warpage.
Maximum warpage:
Cylinder block side0.15 mm (0.0059 in)
Manifold side0.10 mm (0.0039 in)
If warpage is greater than maximum, replace the cylinder head.
(b) Inspect for cracks.Using a dye penetrant, check the combustion chambers,
intake ports, exhaust ports and cylinder block surface for
cracks.
If cracked, replace the cylinder head.
4. CLEAN VALVES
(a) Using a gasket scraper, chip off any carbon from the valve head.
(b) Using a wire brush, thoroughly clean the valve.

(c) Using a spring tester, measure the tension of the valve
spring at the specified installed length.
Installed tension:
214 − 238 N (21.8 − 24.2 kgf, 48.1 − 53.4 lbf)
at 36.5 mm (1.437 in.)
If the installed tension is not as specified, replace the valve
spring.
9. INSPECT CAMSHAFTS
(a) Inspect for runout. (1) Place the camshaft on V−blocks.
(2) Using a dial indicator, measure the circle runout atthe center journal.
Maximum circle runout: 0.06 mm (0.0024 in.)
If the circle runout is greater than maximum, replace the cam-
shaft.
(b) Inspect the cam lobes. Using a micrometer, measure the cam lobe height.
Standard cam lobe height:
50.61 − 50.71 mm (1.9925 − 1.9965 in.)
Minimum cam lobe height: 50.51 mm (1.9886 in.)
If the cam lobe height is less than minimum, replace the cam-
shaft.
(c) Inspect the journals. Using a micrometer, measure the journal diameter.
Journal diameter:
26.959 − 26.975 mm (1.0614 − 1.0620 in.)
If the journal diameter is not as specified, check the oil clear-
ance.
(d) Inspect the camshaft bearings. Check that bearings for flaking and scoring.
If the bearings are damaged, replace the bearing caps and cyl-
inder head as a set.

INSTALLATION
1. INSTALL CYLINDER HEAD AND INTAKE MANIFOLD ASSEMBLY
(a) Place the cylinder head on the cylinder head. (1) Apply seal packing to the 2 locations as shown.
Seal packing: Part No. 08826−00080 or equivalent
NOTICE:
Do not apply too much seal packing
(2) Place a new cylinder head gasket in position on the
cylinder block.
NOTICE:
Be careful of the installation direction. (3) Place the cylinder head in position on the cylinderhead gasket.
(b) Install the cylinder head bolts.
HINT:
The cylinder head bolts are tightened in 3 progressive
steps (steps (b), (d) and (e)).
If any cylinder head bolt is broken or deformed, replace
it.
(1) Apply a light coat of engine oil on the threads and under the heads of the cylinder head bolts.
(2) Install and uniformly tighten the 14 cylinder head
bolts and plate washers in several passes, in the se-
quence shown.
Torque: 39 N·m (400 kgf·cm, 29 ft·lbf)
If any of the cylinder head bolts does not meet the torque speci-
fication, replace the cylinder head bolt.
(3) Mark the front of the cylinder head bolt head withpaint.
(4) Retighten the cylinder head bolts by 90 ° in the nu-
merical order shown.
(5) Retighten the cylinder head bolts by an additional 90°.
(6) Check that the painted mark is now facing rearward.

(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.

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.
