5) Install cylinder head to block.
After applying oil to cylinder head bolts, tighten them gradu-
ally as follows.
a) Tighten all bolts to 53 N·m (5.3 kg-m, 38.5 lb-ft) according
to numerical order in the figure.
b) In the same manner as in a), tighten them to 84 N·m (8.4
kg-m, 61.0 lb-ft).
c) Loosen all bolts until tightening torque is reduced to 0 in
reverse order of tightening.
d) In the same manner as in a), tighten them to 53 N·m (5.3
kg-m, 38.5 lb-ft).
e) In the same manner as in a) again, tighten them to speci-
fied torque.
Tightening torque
Cylinder head bolt (a) : 105 N·m (10.5 kg-m, 76.0 lb-ft)
Cylinder head bolt (hex hole bolt) (b) :
11 N·m (1.1 kg-m, 7.5 lb-ft)
6) Install water outlet cap.
7) Check timing mark on crankshaft as shown in the figure.
8) Install valve lash adjuster, camshaft, CMP sensor and RH
bank 2nd timing chain.
Refer to “CAMSHAFT AND VALVE LASH ADJUSTER” and
“RH (NO.2) BANK 2ND TIMING CHAIN AND CHAIN TEN-
SIONER” in this section. For CMP sensor, refer to “CMP
SENSOR” in Section 6F2.
9) Install 1st timing chain.
Refer to “1ST TIMING CHAIN AND CHAIN TENSIONER” in
this section.
10) Install LH bank 2nd timing chain.
Refer to “LH (NO.1) BANK 2ND TIMING CHAIN AND CHAIN
TENSIONER” in this section.
11) Install timing chain cover.
Refer to “TIMING CHAIN COVER” in this section. NOTE:
Don’t forget to install (b) bolts as shown in the figure.

6) Remove surge tank cover.
Remove intake air pipe (1) and surge tank pipe (2).
7) Disconnect connectors of TP sensor and IAC valve.
8) Disconnect ground wire at connector.
9) Remove clamp bracket (1) and harness clamps from intake
collector.
10) Disconnect connectors of EVAP canister purge valve (1),
MAP sensor and EGR valve (5).
11) Disconnect PCV valve (6) from cylinder head with hose con-
nected, breather hose (3) from cylinder head and EVAP can-
ister purge valve hose (2).
12) Detach EGR pipe (4) from intake air collector.
13) Remove throttle body (3) and intake collector (2) from intake
manifold (1).
14) Disconnect hoses of PCV from throttle body.
15) Remove throttle body from intake collector.
NOTE:
TP sensor (4), or other components containing rubber
must not be placed in a solvent or cleaner bath. A
chemical reaction will cause these parts to swell,
harden or get distorted.
Don’t put drills or wires into passages for cleaning. It
causes damages in passages.

CLEANING
Clean throttle body bore and bypass air passages (1) by blowing
compressed air.
INSTALLATION
1) Clean mating surfaces and install throttle body gasket to
intake collector (1) with new gasket (2).
2) Install throttle body to intake collector and tighten bolts.
3) Connect PCV hose.
4) Install throttle body and intake collector to intake manifold
with new intake collector gaskets.
5) Install EGR pipe with new gaskets.
6) Connect breather hose and EVAP canister purge valve hose
and install PCV valve to cylinder head.
7) Connect connectors of EVAP canister purge valve, MAP
sensor and EGR valve.
Fix wire harness with clamps.
8) Install clamp bracket to intake collector.
9) Connect ground wire connector.
10) Connect connectors of TP sensor, ground and IAC valve.
11) Install surge tank pipe to intake manifold with new gaskets
and intake air pipe to throttle body. Install surge tank cover.
12) Connect engine coolant hoses to throttle body.
13) Connect accelerator cable and A/T throttle cable (A/T).CAUTION:
Do not blow compressed air through bypass air pas-
sage with IAC valve installed to throttle body. This will
cause IAC valve to malfunction.
TP sensor, idle air control valve or other components
containing rubber must not be places in a solvent or
cleaner bath.
A chemical reaction will cause these parts to swell,
harden or get distorted.

PCV System
PCV hose
INSPECTION
Check hoses for connection, leakage, clog, and deterioration.
Replace as necessary.
PCV valve
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1) Disconnect PCV valve from cylinder head cover and plug
head cover hole.
2) Run engine at idle.
3) Place your finger over end of PCV valve (1) to check for vac-
uum. If there is no vacuum, check for clogged valve. Replace
as necessary.
4) After checking vacuum, stop engine and remove PCV valve
(1). Shake valve and listen for the rattle of check needle
inside the valve (1). If valve does not rattle, replace.
5) After checking, connect PCV valve (1), PCV hose and clamp
securely. NOTE:
Be sure to check that there is no obstruction in PCV
valve or its hoses before checking engine idle speed/IAC
duty for obstructed PCV valve or hose hampers its accu-
rate checking.
