INSPECTION
1. INSPECT TIMING BELT
NOTICE:
Do not bend, twist or turn the timing belt inside out.
Do not allow the timing belt to come into contact with
oil, water or steam.
Do not utilize timing belt tension when installing or re-
moving the mounting bolt of the camshaft timing
pulley.
If there are any defects as shown in the illustration, check these
points:
(a) Premature parting
Check for proper installation.
Check the timing cover gasket for damage and
proper installation.
(b) If the belt teeth are cracked or damaged, check to see if
either camshaft or oil pump is locked.
(c) If there is noticeable wear or cracks on the belt face,
check to see if there are nicks on the side of the idler
pulley lock.
(d) If there is wear or damage on only one side of the belt,
check the belt guide and the alignment of each pulley.
(e) If there is noticeable wear on the belt teeth, check the tim-
ing belt cover for damage and check gasket has been
installed correctly and for foreign material on the pulley
teeth.
If necessary, replace the timing belt.
2. INSPECT IDLER PULLEYS
(a) Visually check the seal portion of the idler pulley for oil
leakage.
If leakage is found, replace the idler pulley.
(b) Check that the idler pulley turns smoothly.
If necessary, replace the idler pulley.

(c) Check that each pulley aligns with the timing marks as
shown in the illustration.
If the timing marks do not align, remove the timing belt and rein-
stall it.
(d) Tighten the No.1 idler pulley bolt.
Torque: 18.5 N´m (185 kgf´cm, 13 ft´lbf)
(e) Remove the crankshaft pulley bolt.
8. INSTALL TIMING BELT GUIDE

(a) Install the gasket to the belt cover.
(b) Install the belt cover with the 3 bolts.
10. INSTALL NO.3 TIMING BELT COVER
11. INSTALL CRANKSHAFT PULLEY
(a) Align the pulley set key with the key groove of the pulley,
and slide on the pulley.
(b) Using SST, install the pulley bolt.

(e) Uniformly loosen and remove the 8 No.3 bearing cap
bolts, in several passes, in the sequence shown.
(f) Remove the 4 bearing caps and intake camshaft.
HINT:
If the camshaft is not being lifted out straight and level, reinstall
the bearing cap with the 2 bolts.
Then alternately loosen and remove the 2 bearing cap bolts
with the camshaft gear pulled up.
NOTICE:
Do not pry on or attempt to force the camshaft with a tool
or other object.
(g) Uniformly loosen and remove the 8 No.3 bearing cap
bolts, in several passes, in the sequence shown.
(h) Remove the 4 bearing caps and intake camshaft.
HINT:
If the camshaft is not being lifted out straight and level, reinstall
the bearing cap with the 2 bolts.
Then alternately loosen and remove the 2 bearing cap bolts
with the camshaft gear pulled up.
NOTICE:
Do not pry on or attempt to force the camshaft with a tool
or other object.
30. DISASSEMBLE INTAKE CAMSHAFT
(a) Mount the hexagon head portion of the camshaft in a soft
jaw vise.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to damage the camshaft.
(b) Using SST, turn the sub-gear clockwise, and remove the
service bolt.

INSPECTION
1. CLEAN TOP SURFACES OF PISTONS AND CYL-
INDER BLOCK
(a) Turn the crankshaft, and bring each piston to top dead
center (TDC). Using a gasket scraper, remove all the car-
bon from the piston top surface.
(b) Using a gasket scraper, remove all the gasket material
from the cylinder block surface.
(c) Using compressed air, blow carbon and oil from the bolt
holes.
CAUTION:
Protect your eyes when using high-pressure compressed
air.
2. CLEAN CYLINDER HEAD
(a) Remove the gasket material.
(b) Using a gasket scraper, remove all the gasket material
from the cylinder block contact surface.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to scratch the cylinder block contact sur-
face.
(c) Clean the combustion chambers.
(d) Using a wire brush, remove all the carbon from the com-
bustion chambers.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to scratch the cylinder block contact sur-
face.

(g) Clean the cylinder head.
(h) Using a soft brush and solvent, thoroughly clean the cylin-
der head.
3. INSPECT CYLINDER HEAD
(a) Inspect the for flatness.
(b) Using a precision straight edge and feeler gauge, mea-
sure the surfaces contacting the cylinder block and the
manifolds for warpage.
Maximum warpage:
Cylinder block side0.05 mm (0.0020 in.)
Manifold side0.05 mm (0.0020 in.)
If warpage is greater than maximum, replace the cylinder head.
(c) Inspect the for cracks.
(d) 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.
