3. Remove front chain case.
+Move power steering fluid reservoir tank from the bracket.
+Loosen fixing bolts in the reverse order of that shown in the
figure and remove them.
+Remove No. 6, 10, and 11 bolts with the rubber washer as
space is limited for pulling them out.

CAUTION:
+While front chain case is removed, cover openings to pre-
vent entry of foreign material into engine.
+Do not remove two mass dampers on the back of cover.

4. Set the No. 1 piston to TDC on its compression stroke.
+Turn crankshaft pulley clockwise so that the alignment mark
(punched mark) on each camshaft sprocket is positioned as
shown in the figure.
+No position indicator is provided on the crankshaft pulley.
+When installing, color coded links on the secondary tim-
ing chain can be used as alignment marks. Marking may
not be necessary for removal; however, make alignment
marks as required because the alignment mark on fuel
injection pump sprocket may not be easy to see.

5. Remove chain tensioner.
a. Push the plunger of chain tensioner and keep it pressed with
a push pin.

+Make sure camshaft thrusting parts (on rear side) securely fit
in their mating parts on the cylinder head.
b. Tighten to 6 N´m (0.6 kg-m, 52 in-lb).
c. Tighten to 12 to 13 N´m (1.2 to 1.4 kg-m, 9 to 10 ft-lb).

+Camshaft sprockets are commonly used for RH and LH.
+Align camshaft sprocket and dowel pin on camshaft, and
install.
+Holding the hexagonal part of camshaft with a wrench, tighten
bolt securing camshaft sprocket.
6. Before installing spill tube after installing secondary timing
chain, check and adjust valve clearance. Refer to EM-133,
ªValve Clearanceº.
7. Hereafter, install in the reverse order of removal.

shaft LH faces straight above. (No position indicator, etc. is
provided on the crankshaft pulley.)

specification. They will be used later to determine the required
replacement adjusting shim.
Valve clearance for checking (Cold):
Intake
0.24 - 0.32 mm (0.0094 - 0.0126 in)

SERVICE COUPLERSNJHA0117S06Never attempt to connect HFC-134a (R-134a) service couplers to
an CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system. The HFC-134a (R-134a) couplers
will not properly connect to the CFC-12 (R-12) system. However, if
an improper connection is attempted, discharging and contamina-

REFRIGERANT WEIGHT SCALENJHA0117S07Verify that no refrigerant other than HFC-134a (R-134a) and speci-
fied lubricants have been used with the scale. If the scale controls
refrigerant flow electronically, the hose fitting must be 1/2²-16
ACME.
CALIBRATING ACR4 WEIGHT SCALENJHA0117S09Calibrate the scale every three months.
To calibrate the weight scale on the ACR4:
1. PressShift/ResetandEnterat the same time.
2. Press8787.ªA1º will be displayed.
3. Remove all weight from the scale.
4. Press0, then pressEnter.ª0.00º will be displayed and change
to ªA2º.
5. Place a known weight (dumbbell or similar weight), between
4.5 and 36.3 kg (10 and 80 lb) on the center of the weight
scale.
6. Enter the known weight using four digits. (Example 10 lb =
ª10.00º, 10.5 lb = ª10.50º)
7. PressEnterÐ the display returns to the vacuum mode.
8. PressShift/ResetandEnterat the same time.
9. Press6Ð the known weight on the scale is displayed.
10. Remove the known weight from the scale. ª0.00º will be dis-
played.
11. PressShift/Resetto return the ACR4 to the program mode.
CHARGING CYLINDERNJHA0117S08Using a charging cylinder is not recommended. Refrigerant may be
vented into air from cylinder's top valve when filling the cylinder
with refrigerant. Also, the accuracy of the cylinder is generally less
than that of an electronic scale or of quality recycle/recharge
equipment.

Position the center pulley puller on the end of the drive shaft,
and remove the pulley assembly using any commercially avail-
able pulley puller.
To prevent the pulley groove from being deformed, the
puller claws should be positioned onto the edge of the
pulley assembly.
