6A-12 ENGINE MECHANICAL (G10, 1-CAM 6-VALVES ENGINE)
1. Camshaft allowable turning range – – – By timing
mark, within 90 from “V” mark on head cover on
both right and left.
2. Crankshaft allowable turning range – – – by punch
mark, within 90 from arrow mark on oil pump case
on both right and left.
CAUTION:
After timing belt is removed, never turn camshaft and crank-
shaft independently more than such an extent as shown be-
low. If turned, interference may occur among piston and
valves, and parts related to piston and valves may be dam-
aged.
12) Remove tensioner, tensioner plate, tensioner spring and
spring damper.
INSPECTION
Check timing belt for wear or crack. Replace it as necessary.
Check tensioner for smooth rotation and rattle.
INSTALLATION
1) Install tensioner plate (1) to tensioner (2).
Insert lug (3) of tensioner plate into hole (4) of tensioner.
2) Install tensioner (2) and tensioner plate (3).
Do not tighten the tensioner bolt (1) and stud by wrench yet.
Hand tighten only at this time.
Check to ensure that plate movement in arrow direction as
shown in figure causes tensioner to move in the same direction.
If no associated movement between plate and tensioner occurs,
remove tensioner and plate again and reinsert the plate lug into
tensioner hole.

ENGINE MECHANICAL (G10, 1-CAM 6-VALVES ENGINE) 6A-13
3) Check that timing mark (3) on camshaft timing belt pulley (1) is
aligned with “V” mark (2) on cylinder head cover (4). If not, align
two marks by turning camshaft but be careful not to turn it more
than its allowable turning range which is described on previous
page.
4) Check that punch mark (2) on crank timing belt pulley (4) is
aligned with arrow mark (3) on oil pump case. If not, align two
marks by turning crankshaft but be careful not to turn it more
than its allowable turning range which is described on previous
page.
5) With two sets of marks aligned, install timing belt (1) on two pul-
leys in such a way that the drive side of belt is free of any slack,
and with tensioner plate pushed up by finger.
And then install tensioner spring and spring damper (2) as
shown in figure, and handtighten tensioner stud.
NOTE:
When installing timing belt, match arrow mark (
) on
timing belt with rotating direction of crankshaft.
In this state, No.1 piston is at top dead center of compres-
sion stroke.
6) To take up slack of timing belt, turn crankshaft two rotations
clockwise after installing it. After making sure that belt is free
from slack, tighten tensioner stud (1) first and then tensioner bolt
(2) to each specified torque.
Then confirm again that two sets of marks are aligned respec-
tively.

INSPECTION
Camshaft journal wear:
Check camshaft journals and camshaft housings for pitting,
scratches, wear or damage.
If any malcondition is found, replace camshaft or cylinder head
with housing. Never replace cylinder head without replacing
housings.
Check clearance by using gaging plastic (1). The procedure is as
follows.
1) Clean housings and camshaft journals.
2) Make sure that all valve lash adjusters are removed and install
camshaft to cylinder head.
3) Place a piece of gaging plastic the full width of journal of cam-
shaft (parallel to camshaft).
4) Install housings as outlined on the following page and evenly
torque housing bolts to specified torque. Housings MUST be
torqued to specification in order to assure proper reading of
camshaft journal clearance.
NOTE:
Do not rotate camshaft while gaging plastic is installed.
5) Remove housing, and using scale (2) on gaging plastic envel-
op, measure gaging plastic width at its widest point.

clearance0.040 – 0.082 mm

If measured camshaft journal clearance exceeds limit, mea-
sure journal (housing) bore and outside diameter of camshaft
journal. Replace camshaft or cylinder head assembly which-
ever the difference from specification is greater.

6A-18 ENGINE MECHANICAL (G10, 1-CAM 6-VALVES ENGINE)
INSTALLATION
1) Before installing valve lash adjuster to cylinder head, fill oil pas-
sage of cylinder head (1) with engine oil according to the follow-
ing procedure.
Pour engine oil through camshaft journal oil holes (2) and check
that oil comes out from oil holes in sliding part of valve lash ad-
juster.
2) Install lash adjuster to cylinder head.
Apply engine oil around valve lash adjuster and then install it to
cylinder head.
3) Install camshaft to cylinder head.
After applying engine oil to camshaft journal and all around cam,
set camshaft to cylinder head so that camshaft timing belt pulley
pin hole (1) in camshaft is at lower position.
4) Install camshaft housing to camshaft and cylinder head.
Apply engine oil to sliding surface of each housing against
camshaft journal.
Apply sealant to mating surface of No.1 and No.3 housings
which will mate with cylinder head.
“A”: Sealant 99000-31110
Embossed marks are provided on each camshaft housing, in-
dicating position and direction for installation.
Install housing as indicated by these marks.
