(d) Check the valve overall length.
Standard overall length:
Intake93.45 mm (3.6791 in.)
Exhaust93.89 mm (3.6768 in.)
Minimum overall length:
Intake92.95 mm (3.6594 in.)
Exhaust93.39 mm (3.6768 in.)
If the overall length is less than minimum, replace the valve.
(e) Check the surface of the valve stem tip for wear.
If the valve stem tip is worn, resurface the tip with a grinder or
replace the valve.
NOTICE:
Do not grind off more than minimum.
7. INSPECT AND CLEAN VALVE SEATS
(a) Using a 45° carbide cutter, resurface the valve seats.
Remove only enough metal to clean the seats.
(b) Check the valve seating position.
(c) Apply a light coat of prussian blue (or white lead) to the
valve face. Lightly press the valve against the seat. Do not
rotate valve.
(d) Check the valve face and seat for the following:
(1) If blue appears 360° around the face, the valve is
concentric. If not, replace the valve.
(2) If blue appears 360° around the valve seat, the
guide and face are concentric. If not, resurface the
seat.
(3) Check that the seat contact is in the middle of the
valve face with the following width:
1.0 - 1.4 mm (0.039 - 0.055 in.)
If not, correct the valve seats as follows:
(1) If the seating is too high on the valve face, use 30°
and 45° cutters to correct the seat.

INSTALLATION
1. PLACE CYLINDER HEAD ON CYLINDER BLOCK
(a) Place a new cylinder head gasket in position on the cylin-
der block.
NOTICE:
Be careful of the installation direction.
(b) Place the cylinder head in position on the cylinder head
gasket.
2. INSTALL CYLINDER HEAD BOLTS
HINT:
The cylinder head bolts are tightened in 2 progressive
steps (steps (b) and (d)).
If any cylinder head bolt is broken or deformed, replace
it.
There are 2 lengths of cylinder head bolts, long (A) and
short (B).
(a) Apply a light coat of engine oil on the threads and under
the heads of the cylinder head bolts.
(b) First, using a bi-hexagon wrench 8 mm, install and uni-
formly tighten the 10 cylinder head bolts, in several
passes, in the sequence shown.
Torque: 45 N´m (450 kgf´cm, 33 ft´lbf)
If any one of the cylinder head bolts does not meet the torque
specification, replace the cylinder head bolt.
(c) Mark the front of the cylinder head bolt head with paint.
(d) Retighten the cylinder head bolts 90° in the numerical or-
der shown.
(e) Check that the painted mark is now at a 90° angle to front.
3. ASSEMBLE INTAKE CAMSHAFT
(a) Mount the hexagonal wrench head portion of the cam-
shaft in a vise.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to damage the camshaft.
(b) Install the camshaft gear spring.
(c) Install the camshaft sub-gear.
(d) Install the wave washer.
HINT:
Align the pins on the gears with the gear spring ends.

(e) Apply engine oil to thrust portion of the exhaust camshaft.
(f) Engage the exhaust camshaft gear to the intake cam-
shaft gear by matching the timing marks on each gear.
NOTICE:
There are also assembly reference marks on each gear as
shown in the illustration. Do not use these marks.
(g) Roll down the exhaust camshaft onto the bearing journals
while engaging gears with each other.
HINT:
The above angle allows the No.2 and No.4 cylinder cam lobes
of the exhaust camshaft to push their valve lifters evenly.
(h) Lightly push the exhaust camshaft gear without applying
excessive force.
(i) Install the 4 bearing caps in their proper locations.
(j) Temporarily tighten the bearing cap bolts uniformly and
alternately, in several passes, in the sequence shown un-
til the bearing caps are snug with the cylinder head.
(k) Remove the service bolt.
(l) Clean the installed surfaces of the No.2 bearing cap and
cylinder head with cleaner.
(m) Apply seal packing to the No.2 bearing cap as shown.

8. SET NO.1 CYLINDER TO TDC/COMPRESSION
(a) Turn the crankshaft pulley, and align its groove with timing
mark º0º of the No.1 timing belt cover.
(b) Turn the camshaft, and align the hole of the camshaft tim-
ing pulley on the side with the 5E mark with the timing
mark of the bearing cap.
9. INSTALL TIMING BELT
(a) Starting from the right hand side of the pulley and instal-
ling the belt counterclockwise.
(b) Loosen the No.1 idler pulley mounting bolt until the pulley
is moved slightly by the spring tension.
(c) Turn the crankshaft pulley 2 revolutions from TDC to TDC.
NOTICE:
Always turn the crankshaft clockwise.
