DISASSEMBLY
1) For ease in servicing cylinder head, remove CMP sensor case,
intake manifold with throttle body and exhaust manifold from cyl-
inder head.
2) Remove rocker arms and washers by pulling its shaft out to
transmission side.
3) Using special tools (Valve lifter), compress valve springs and
then remove valve cotters (1) by using special tool (Forceps) as
shown.
Special Tool
(A): 09916-14510
(B): 09916-14910
(C): 09916-84511
4) Release special tool, and remove spring retainer and valve
spring.
5) Remove valve from combustion chamber side.
6) Remove valve stem oil seal (1) from valve guide, and then valve
spring seat (2).
NOTE:
Do not reuse oil seal once disassembled. Be sure to use
new oil seal when assembling.
7) Using special tool (Valve guide remover), drive valve guide out
from combustion chamber side to valve spring side.
Special Tool
(A): 09916-44910
NOTE:
Do not reuse valve guide once disassembled. Be sure to
use new valve guide (Oversize) when assembling.
8) Place disassembled parts except valve stem seal and valve
guide in order, so that they can be installed in their original posi-
tion.

Valve seat repair:
A valve seat (2) not producing a uniform contact with its valve or
showing width of seating contact that is out of specified range
must be repaired by regrinding or by cutting and regrinding and
finished by lapping.
1) EXHAUST VALVE SEAT: Use valve seat cutters (1) to make
two cuts as illustrated in figure. Two cutters must be used: the
first for making 15 angle, and the second for making 45
angle. The second cut must be made to produce desired seat
width.
Seat width for exhaust valve seat:
1.1 – 1.3 mm (0.0433 – 0.0512 in.)
2) INTAKE VALVE SEAT: Cutting sequence is the same as for ex-
haust valve seats.
Seat width for intake valve seat:
1.1 – 1.3 mm (0.0433 – 0.0512 in.)
3) VALVE LAPPING: Lap valve on seat in two steps, first with
coarse size lapping compound applied to face and the second
with fine-size compound, each time using valve lapper accord-
ing to usual lapping method.
Cylinder Head
Remove all carbon from combustion chambers.
NOTE:
Do not use any sharp-edged tool to scrape off carbon. Be
careful not to scuff or nick metal surfaces when decarbon-
ing. The same applies to valves and valve seats, too.
Check cylinder head for cracks in intake and exhaust ports, com-
bustion chambers, and head surface.

6A1-48 ENGINE MECHANICAL (G13B, 1-CAM 16-VALVES ENGINE)
Flatness of gasketed surface:
Using a straightedge and thickness gauge, check surface at a to-
tal of 6 locations. If distortion limit, given below, is exceeded, cor-
rect gasketed surface with a surface plate and abrasive paper of
about #400 (Waterproof silicon carbide abrasive paper): place
paper on and over surface plate, and rub gasketed surface
against paper to grind off high spots. Should this fail to reduce
thickness gauge readings to within limit, replace cylinder head.
Leakage of combustion gases from this gasketed joint is often
due to warped gasketed surface: such leakage results in reduced
power output.
Limit of distortion: 0.05 mm (0.002 in.)
Distortion of manifold seating faces:
Check seating faces of cylinder head for manifolds, using a
straightedge and thickness gauge, in order to determine whether
these faces should be corrected or cylinder head replaced.
Limit of distortion: 0.10 mm (0.004 in.)

ASSEMBLY
1) Before installing valve guide into cylinder head, ream guide hole
with special tool (11 mm reamer) to remove burrs and make it
truly round.
Special Tool
(A): 09916-34542
(B): 09916-38210
2) Install valve guide to cylinder head.
Heat cylinder head uniformly at a temperature of 80 to 100C
(176 to 212F) so that head will not be distorted, and drive new
valve guide into hole with special tools. Drive in new valve guide
until special tool (Valve guide installer) contacts cylinder head.
After installing, make sure that valve guide protrudes by 11.5
mm (0.45 in.) from cylinder head.
Special Tool
(C): 09916-56011
(D): 09916-58210
NOTE:
Do not reuse valve guide once disassembled.
Install new valve guide (Oversize).
Intake and exhaust valve guides are identical.
Valve guide oversize: 0.03 mm (0.0012 in.)
Valve guide protrusion (In and Ex): 11.5 mm (0.45 in.)
3) Ream valve guide bore with special tool (5.5 mm reamer). After
reaming, clean bore.

9) Install rocker arms, washers, rocker arm shaft and camshaft as
previously outlined.
10) Install CMP sensor case, intake manifold and exhaust man-
ifold.
INSTALLATION
1) Remove oil gasket and oil on mating surfaces and install new
head gasket (1) as shown in figure, that is, “TOP” mark provided
on gasket comes to crankshaft pulley side, facing up (toward cyl-
inder head side).
2) Check to make sure that oil jet (venturi plug) is installed and if
it is, that it is not clogged.
When installing it, be sure to tighten to specified torque.
Tightening Torque
(a): 3.5 N
.m (0.35 kg-m, 2.5 lb-ft)
3) Apply engine oil to cylinder head bolts and tighten them gradual-
ly as follows.
a) Tighten all bolts to 35 N
.m (3.5 kg-m, 25.0 lb-ft) according to
numerical order in figure.
b) In the same manner as in a), tighten them to 55 N
.m
(5.5 kg-m, 40.0 lb-ft).
c) Loosen all bolts until tightening torque is reduced to 0 (zero)
in reverse order of tightening.
d) In the same manner as in a), tighten them to 35 N
.m
(3.5 kg-m, 25.0 lb-ft).
e) In the same manner as in a) again, tighten them to specified
torque.

REMOVAL
1) Remove cylinder head from cylinder block as previously out-
lined.
2) Drain engine oil.
3) Remove oil pan and oil pump strainer as previously outlined.
4) Mark cylinder number on all pistons, connecting rods and rod
bearing caps, using silver pencil or quick drying paint.
5) Remove rod bearing caps.
6) Install guide hose (1) over threads of rod bolts. This is to prevent
damage to bearing journal and rod bolt threads when removing
connecting rod.
7) Decarbon top of cylinder bore before removing piston from cylin-
der.
8) Push piston and connecting rod assembly out through the top of
cylinder bore.

Also, a letter A, B or C is stamped on piston head but ordinarily
it is not necessary to discriminate each piston by this letter.
1) Install piston pin to piston (1) and connecting rod (3):
After applying engine oil to piston pin and piston pin holes in pis-
ton and connecting rod, fit connecting rod to piston as shown in
figure and insert piston pin to piston and connecting rod, and
install piston pin circlips.
NOTE:
Circlip should be installed with its cut part facing either up
or down as shown in figure.
2) Install piston rings to piston:
As indicated in figure, 1st and 2nd rings have “RN” or “R” mark
respectively. When installing these piston rings to piston, di-
rect marked side of each ring toward top of piston.
1st ring (1) difffers from 2nd ring (2) in thickness, shape and
color of surface contacting cylinder wall.
Distinguish 1st ring from 2nd ring by referring to figure.
When installing oil ring (3), install spacer first and then two
rails.
3) After installing three rings (1st, 2nd and oil rings), distribute their
end gaps as shown in figure.

INSTALLATION OR CONNECTION
1) Apply engine oil to pistons, rings, cylinder walls, connecting rod
bearings and crankpins.
NOTE:
Do not apply oil between connecting rod and bearing or be-
tween bearing cap and bearing.
2) Install guide hoses over connecting rod bolts.
These guide hoses protect crankpin and threads of rod bolt from
damage during installation of connecting rod and piston assem-
bly.
3) When installing piston and connecting rod assembly into cylin-
der bore, point arrow mark on piston head to crankshaft pulley
side.
4) Install piston and connecting rod assembly into cylinder bore.
Use special tool (Piston ring compressor) to compress rings.
Guide connecting rod into place on crankshaft.
Using a hammer handle, tap piston head to install piston into
bore. Hold ring compressor firmly against cylinder block until all
piston rings have entered cylinder bore.
