IWhen installing fuel tube and intake manifold collectors, refer
to EM-12, ªTIGHTENING PROCEDURESº.
IAfter starting engine, keep idling for three minutes. Then
rev engine up to 3,000 rpm under no load to purge air from
the high-pressure chamber of the chain tensioners. The
engine may produce a rattling noise. This indicates that
