Replacement (cylinder head removal not required)
The procedure shown below applies when using the in-
car valve spring compressor (Snap-on YA8845 with
YA8845-2A 7/8" auachment). Use approved eye protec-
tion.
1. Turn the crankshaft so that the No. 1 and the No. 4
pistons are at top dead center (TDC).
2. Remove the cylinder head cover.
3. Remove the distributor.
4. Loosen and disconnect the timing belt from the
camshaft pulleys.
5. Remove the camshaft holder bolts. then remove the
camshaft holders, the camshafts and rocker arms.
lntake Valve Seals
6. Using the 6 mm bolts supplied with the tool, mount
the two uprights to the cylinder head at the end
camshaft holders. The uprights fit as shown.
7. Insert the cross shaft through the top hole of the
two uprights,
at.
9.
Select the 7/8 in. diameter long compressor attach-
ment, and fasten the attachment to the front hole of
the lever arm with the speed pin supplied.
Position the piston at TDC, and insen an air adaptor
into the spark plug hole. Pump air into the cylinder
to keep the valve closed while compressing the
springs and removing the valve keepers.
10. Put shop towels over the oil passages to prevent
the valve keepers from falling into the cylinder
head.
Position the lever arm under the cross shaft so the
lever is perpendicular to the shaft and the compres-
sor attachment rests on top of the retainer for the
spring being compressed. Use the rear position slot
on the lever as shown,
't1.

26. Remove the cylinder head bolts. To prevent
warpage, unscrew the bolts in sequence 1/3 turn at a
time; repeat the sequence until all bolts are loosened.

Loosen the adjusting screws.
Remove the camshaft holders.
Mark the rocker arms, then remove them.
Reinstall the camshaft and holders. Tighten the
camshaft holder bolts in a crisscross pattern, begin-
ning with the inner bolts.

Seat the camshafts by pushing them toward the dis-
tributor end of the head with a screwdriver.
Zero the dial indicator against the end of the
camshaft, push the camshaft back and forth and
read the end play.

Service Limit: 0.5 mm (0.02 in)
Unscrew the camshaft holder bolts two turns at a
time, in a crisscross pattern, Then remove the
camshaft holder bolts from the cvlinder head.
Lift the camshafts out of the cylinder head. wipe
them clean, then inspect the lift ramps, Replace the
camshaft if any lobes are pitted, scored, or exces-
sively worn.
Clean the camshaft journal surfaces in the cylinder
head, then set the camshaft back in Dlace. Place aplastigage strip across each journal.
Install the camshaft holders. and torque the bolts tothe values and in the sequence shown on page 6-31.
NOTE: Do not rotate the camshafts during inspection.

you must replace the cylinder head.. lf the camshaft has not been replaced, first check
total runout with the camshaft suoDorted on V-
blocks.

- lf the total runout of the camshafts is within tol-
erance, replace the cylinder head
- lf the total runout is out of tolerance, replace the
camshafts and recheck. lf the oil clearance is still
out of tolerance, replace the cylinder head.

7.Place the rocker arms on the pivots and the valve
stems. Put the rocker arms in their original posi-
lrons.
lnstall the camshafts, then install the oil seals with
the open side (spring) facing in. Make sure that the
keyways on the camshafts are facing up and the No.
1 piston is at TDC.
Clean and dry the cylinder head mating surfaces.
Apply liquid gasket (P/N 08718 - 0001 or 08718 -

. The arrows marked on the camshaft holders
should point at the timing belt.
Tighten each bolt in two steps to ensure that the
rockers do not bind on the valves.
