the nuts are fully unscrewed and enter the two
bolts to the crankshaft thre ads and lightly tighten.

4. Tight
en the nuts, finger tight, to hold the tool assembly against

the seal. Check that the seal and the tool are approximately
parallel to the rear of the engine.

5. Pres s th
e seal into the housing.
Ho
ld e
ach bolt stationary, in
turn, and tighten its nut a
small amount (approximately two to three flats) in turn, to
press the seal fully into the housing. until the tool is in
contact with the cylinder block.
6. Remove the tool from the crankshaft.
Chec k that
the seal is located correctly.
7. Fit the drive plate. Refer to Operation (SC) 12.53.13.
8. Install the transmission. Refer to Operation 44.20. 01 in
Section 307-01B.

17. Remove the damper securing bolt from the crankshaft.
18. Lower the vehicle on the ramp.

19
.
Install the camshaft locking tool 303 - 530 to the B-Bank camshafts,
aligning the shafts slightly as necessary.

20
.
Loosen the bolt which secures the sprocket to the camshaft.

28
.
Remove the secondary chain tensioner.
1. Remove the two bolts which secure the chain tensioner to the cylinder head.
2. Remove the tensioner.

29
.
Remove the primary chain guide.
1. Remove the bolt which secures the chain guide.
2. Note the orientation of the chain guide and remove it from the upper retaining pin.

30
.
Remove the camshafts.
1. Remove the bolts which secure the camshaft caps; loosen them evenly, in stages.
2. Remove the camshaft caps. Note their orientation and markings -
each is marked with its position (a number) and orientation (an
arrow).
3. Remove the camshafts from the engine.

31
.
Remove the tappets and shims.
1. Note the position of each tappet, for reassembly, and remove each
tappet and shim assembly - retain each shim with its original
tappet.
Mark
the inside face of each tappet in pencil or felt tipped pen, with its
original position within the cylinder head.
32. Disconnect the plug from the engine position sensor, at the rear of the
cylinder head.

33. R
emove residual coolant from the cylinder head.
1. Place a drain tray under the engine.
2. Use a syringe with a length of thin rubber pipe connected, to drain the residual coolant from the outlet pipe water-way.
