Reassembly
1. Install wheel pin.
Place the hub on a wood workbench or a block of
wood approx. 6” by 6” to protect the wheel stud
ends and threads.
Insert a wheel stud using a hammer.
Be sure the wheel stud is started squarely and
seats completely.

2. Remove camshaft bracket fixing bolt (5), camshaft
bracket (6), then camshaft exhaust (7), and intake
side (8).
3. Remove tappet with shim (11).
4. Use the 5–8840–2446–0 valve spring compressor
and 5–8840–2547–0 valve spring compressor
adapter to remove the split collar (12), valve spring
with upper seat (13) and valve (14).

5. Remove spark plug (1).
CAUTION: Do not remove the spark plugs when the
head and plugs are hot. Clean dirt and debris from
spark plug recess areas before removal.
Clean
Cylinder head
Carefully remove all varnish, soot and carbon from the
bare metal. Do not use a motorized wire brush on any
gasket sealing surface.
Inspection and Repair
1. Cylinder head gasket and mating surfaces for leaks,
corrosion and blow–by. If the gasket has failed,
determine the cause.
– Insufficient torque on head bolts.
– Improper installation
– Loose or warped cylinder head
– Missing dowel pins
– Warped case surface
2. Cylinder head for cracks, especially between valve
seats and in the exhaust ports.3. Cylinder head deck for corrosion, sand particles in
head and porosity.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to weld the cylinder head. Replace
it.
Do not reuse cylinder head bolts.
4. Cylinder head deck, common chamber and exhaust
manifold mating surfaces for flatness. These
surfaces may be reconditioned by milling. If the
surfaces are “out of flat” by more than specification,
the surface should be ground to within specifications.
Replace the head if it requires machining beyond the
repairable limit.
Head surface and manifold surface
Standard: 0.05 mm (0.002 in) or less
Warpage limit: 0.2 mm (0.0079 in)

5. Water jacket sealing plugs seating surfaces.
Reassembly
1. Install Spark plug and tighten all the spark plugs to
specified torque.
Torque: 18 Nꞏm (1.8 Kgꞏm/13 lb ft)
2. Tighten sub gear setting bolt.
1. Use 5–8840–2443–0 gear spring lever to turn sub
gear to right direction until the M5 bolt aligns with
the hole between camshaft driven gear and sub
gear.

ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
oil to enter the cylinder, particularly if the deposits are
heavier on the side of the spark plug facing the intake
valve.
TS23995
Excessive gap means that the air space between the
center and the side electrodes at the bottom of the spark
plug is too wide for consistent firing. This may be due to
improper gap adjustment or to excessive wear of the
electrode during use. A check of the gap size and
comparison to the gap specified for the vehicle in
Maintenance and Lubrication will tell if the gap is too wide.
A spark plug gap that is too small may cause an unstable
idle condition. Excessive gap wear can be an indication
of continuous operation at high speeds or with engine
loads, causing the spark to run too hot. Another possible
cause is an excessively lean fuel mixture.
TS23992
Low or high spark plug installation torque or improper
seating can result in the spark plug running too hot and
can cause excessive center electrode wear. The plug
and the cylinder head seats must be in good contact for
proper heat transfer and spark plug cooling. Dirty or
damaged threads in the head or on the spark plug cankeep it from seating even though the proper torque is
applied. Once spark plugs are properly seated, tighten
them to the torque shown in the Specifications Table. Low
torque may result in poor contact of the seats due to a
loose spark plug. Overtightening may cause the spark
plug shell to be stretched and will result in poor contact
between the seats. In extreme cases, exhaust blow-by
and damage beyond simple gap wear may occur.
Cracked or broken insulators may be the result of
improper installation, damage during spark plug
re-gapping, or heat shock to the insulator material. Upper
insulators can be broken when a poorly fitting tool is used
during installation or removal, when the spark plug is hit
from the outside, or is dropped on a hard surface. Cracks
in the upper insulator may be inside the shell and not
visible. Also, the breakage may not cause problems until
oil or moisture penetrates the crack later.
TS23994
A broken or cracked lower insulator tip (around the center
electrode) may result from damage during re-gapping or
from “heat shock” (spark plug suddenly operating too
hot).

2. Cylinder head for cracks, especially between valve
seats and in the exhaust ports.
3. Cylinder head deck for corrosion, sand particles in
head and porosity.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to weld the cylinder
head. Replace it.
4. Cylinder head lower surface for flatness.
Use a straight edge and a feeler gauge to measure
the cylinder head lower surface warpage.
If the measured values exceed the specified limit,
the cylinder head must be replaced.
Cylinder Head Lower Face Warpage:
Standard: 0.075 mm (0.0029 in) or less
Limit: 0.2 mm (0.0079 in)
Cylinder Head Height:
Standard: 95 mm (3.740 in)
5. Water jacket sealing plugs seating surfaces.
6. Use a straight edge and a feeler gauge to measure
the manifold cylinder head fitting face warpage.
If the measured values exceed the specified limit,
the manifold must be replaced.
Exhaust Manifold Warpage:
Standard: 0.05 mm (0.0020 in) or less
Limit: 0.20 mm (0.0079 in)
CAUTION: Do not attempt to weld the cylinder
head. Replace it.

NOTE: Do not allow the crankshaft to rotate.
9) Remove the main bearing caps.
10) Measure the plastigage width and determine the
oil clearance. If the oil clearance exceeds the
specified limit, replace the main bearings as a
set and/or replace the crankshaft.

crankshaft.
Remove the crankshaft and the bearings.

WARNING: IF SO EQUIPPED WITH A
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS),
REFER TO THE SRS COMPONENT AND WIRING
LOCATION VIEW IN ORDER TO DETERMINE
WHETHER YOU ARE PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR
NEAR THE SRS COMPONENTS OR THE SRS
WIRING. WHEN YOU ARE PERFORMING SERVICE
ON OR NEAR THE SRS COMPONENTS OR THE SRS
WIRING, REFER TO THE SRS SERVICE
INFORMATION. FAILURE TO FOLLOW WARNINGS
COULD RESULT IN POSSIBLE AIR BAG
DEPLOYMENT, PERSONAL INJURY, OR
OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS SYSTEM REPAIRS.CAUTION: Always use the correct fastener in the
proper location. When you replace a fastener, use
ONLY the exact part number for that application.
ISUZU will call out those fasteners that require a
replacement after removal. ISUZU will also call out
the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread
sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do not
use supplemental coatings (Paints, greases, or other
corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or
fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings
adversely affect the fastener torque and the joint
clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When
you install fasteners, use the correct tightening
sequence and specifications. Following these
instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and
systems.
