REMOVAL
1) Disconnect negative cable at battery.
2) Remove cylinder head cover as previously outlined.
3) Remove distributor and then its case from cylinder head.
4) Remove crankshaft pulley, timing belt outside cover and timing
belt as previously outlined.
After removing timing belt, set key (2) on crankshaft in position
as shown in figure by turning crankshaft. This is to prevent inter-
ference between valves and piston when reinstalling camshaft.
5) Remove camshaft timing belt pulley (1).
Lock camshaft (2) with a proper size rod (3) inserted into hole (10
mm, 0.39 in.) in it as shown and then loosen camshaft timing belt
pulley bolt.
NOTE:
Mating surfaces of cylinder head and cover must not be
damaged in this work. So, put clean shop cloth (4) between
rod and mating surfaces, and use care not to bump rod
against mating surfaces hard when loosening bolt.

VALVES AND CYLINDER HEAD
INSPECTION
Valve Guides
Using a micrometer and bore gauge, take diameter readings on
valve stems and guides to check stem-to-guide clearance.
Be sure to take reading at more than one place along the length of
each stem and guide.
If clearance exceeds limit, replace valve and valve guide.

slit of valve toward top of cylinder block.
NOTE:
Tighten cylinder head bolts to specified torque as pre-
viously outlined.
Whenever installing cylinder head to new cylinder block,
use following procedure to tighten cylinder head bolts.

Tighten cylinder head bolts to specified torque as pre-
viously outlined and loosen them once till tightening
