29. REMOVE INTAKE AND EXHAUST CAMSHAFTS
NOTICE:
Since the thrust clearance of the camshaft is small, the
camshaft must be held 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) Set the intake camshaft as shown in the illustration so that
the service bolt holes of the intake camshaft gears are di-
rectly above.
HINT:
This helps to lift the exhaust camshaft levelly and evenly by
pushing No.2 and No.4 cylinder cam lobes of the intake cam-
shaft toward their valve lifters.
(b) Remove the 4 bolts, No.1 and No.2 bearing caps.
(c) Remove the oil seal and housing plug.
(d) Secure the intake 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.

(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.

moving bolts in incorrect order.
(b) Lift the cylinder head from the dowels on the cylinder
block and place the head on wooden blocks on a bench.
