(d) Remove the camshaft timing gear and chain from the in-
take camshaft and leave on the slipper and damper.
35. REMOVE CAMSHAFTS
NOTICE:
Since the thrust clearance of the camshaft is small, the
camshaft must be kept level while it is being removed. 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.
(a) Remove the exhaust camshaft. (1) Bring the service bolt hole of the driven sub −gear
upward by turning the hexagon wrench head por-
tion of the exhaust camshaft with a wrench.
(2) Secure the exhaust camshaft sub −gear to the main
gear with a service bolt.
Recommended service bolt:
Thread diameter6 mm
Thread pitch1.0 mm
Bolt length16 − 20 mm (0.63 − 0.79 in.)
HINT:
When removing the camshaft, make sure that the torsional
spring force of the sub −gear has been eliminated by the above
operation.
(3) Set the timing mark (2 dot marks) of the camshaftdriven gear at approx. 35 ° angle by turning the
hexagon wrench head portion of the intake cam-
shaft with a wrench.
(4) Lightly push the camshaft towards the rear without applying excessive force.
(5) Loosen and remove the No. 1 bearing cap bolts, al-
ternately loosening the left and right bolts uniformly.

(6) Loosen and remove the No. 2, No. 3, No. 5 and No.
7 bearing cap bolts, alternately loosening the left
and right bolts uniformly in several passes, in the
sequence shown.
NOTICE:
Do not remove the No. 4 and No. 6 bearing cap bolts at this
stage. (7) Remove the 4 bearing caps.
(8) Alternately and uniformly loosen and remove theNo. 4 and No. 6 bearing cap bolts.
HINT:
As the 4 No. 4 and No. 6 bearing cap bolts are loosened,
make sure that the camshaft is lifted out straight and level.
If the camshaft is not being lifted out straight and level, re-
tighten the 4 No. 4 and No. 6 bearing cap bolts. Then re-
verse the order of above steps from (g) to (e) and repeat
steps from (c) to (h) once again.
NOTICE:
Do not pry on or attempt to force the camshaft with a tool
or other object.
(9) Remove the 2 bearing caps and exhaust camshaft.
(b) Remove the intake camshaft. (1) Set the timing mark (2 dot marks) of the camshaftdrive gear at approx. 25 ° angle by turning the hexa-
gon wrench head portion of the intake camshaft
with a wrench.
HINT:
The above angle arrows the No. 1 and No. 4 cylinder cam lobes
of the intake camshaft to push their valve lifters evenly.
(2) Lightly push the intake camshaft towards the frontwithout applying excessive force.
(3) Loosen and remove the No. 1 bearing cap bolts, al-
ternately loosening the left and right bolts uniformly.
