INSPECTION
1. INSPECT TIMING BELT
NOTICE:

Do not bend, twist or turn the timing belt inside out.

Do not allow the timing belt to come into contact with
oil, water or steam.

Do not utilize timing belt tension when installing or re-
moving the mount bolt of the camshaft timing pulley.
If there is any defect, as shown in the illustration, check these
points:
(a) Premature parting

Check for proper installation.

Check the timing cover gasket for damage and
proper installation.
(b) If the belt teeth are cracked or damaged, check to see if
either camshaft is locked.
(c) If there is noticeable wear or cracks on the belt face,
check to see if there are nicks on the side of the idler
pulley lock and water pump.
(d) If there is wear or damage on even one side of the belt,
check the belt guide and the alignment of each pulley.
(e) If there is noticeable wear on the belt teeth, check timing
cover for damage and for foreign material on the pulley
teeth.
If necessary, replace the timing belt.
2. INSPECT IDLER PULLEYS
(a) Visually check the seal portion of the idler pulley for oil
leakage.
If leakage is found, replace the idler pulley.
(b) Check that the idler pulley turns smoothly.
If necessary, replace the idler pulley.
3. INSPECT TIMING BELT TENSIONER
(a) Visually check the seal portion of the tensioner for oil leak-
age.
HINT:
If there is only the faintest trace of oil on the seal on the push
rod side, the tensioner is all right.
If leakage is found, replace the tensioner.

(a) Check the crankshaft pulley position.
Check that the timing mark of the crankshaft pulley is
aligned with the centers of the crankshaft pulley bolt and
idler pulley bolt.
NOTICE:
Having the crankshaft pulley at the wrong angle can cause
the piston head and valve head to come into contact with
each other when you remove the camshaft, causing dam-
age. So always set the crankshaft pulley at the correct
angle.
(b) Release the oil from the front bearing caps.
Using SST, rotate the camshaft timing tube from left to
right 2 to 3 times within its VVT±i range (25°) and use a
waste cloth to collect the oil from the camshaft timing oil
control valve installation hole.
SST 09960±10010 (09962±01000, 09963±00400)
NOTICE:
Approximately 20 cc (1.2 cu in.) of oil will be ejected. Take
care not to spill it.
(c) Remove the LH camshafts.
(1) Bring the service bolt hole of the sub±gear upward
by turning the hexagon head portion of the exhaust
camshaft with a wrench.
(2) Secure the sub±gear to the main gear with a service
bolt.
Recommended service bolt:
Thread diameter6 mm
Thread pitch1.0 mm
Bolt length16 to 20 mm (0.63 to 0.79 in.)
HINT:
When removing the camshaft, make sure that the torsional
spring force of the sub±gear has been eliminated by the above
operation.
(3) Align the timing mark (2±dot mark) of the camshaft
drive gear by turning the hexagon head portion of
the exhaust camshaft with a wrench.

9. CLEAN VALVES
(a) Using a gasket scraper, chip off any carbon from the valve
head.
(b) Using a wire brush, thoroughly clean the valve.
10. INSPECT VALVE STEMS AND GUIDE BUSHINGS
(a) Using a caliper gauge, measure the inside diameter of the
guide bushing.
Bushing inside diameter:
5.510 to 5.530 mm (0.2169 to 0.2177 in.)
(b) Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of the valve
stem.
Valve stem diameter:
Intake5.470 to 5.485 mm (0.2154 to 0.2159 in.)
Exhaust5.465 to 5.480 mm (0.2152 to 0.2157 in.)
(c) Subtract the valve stem diameter measurement from the
guide bushing inside diameter measurement.
Standard oil clearance:
Intake0.025 to 0.060 mm (0.0010 to 0.0024 in.)
Exhaust0.030 to 0.065 mm (0.0012 to 0.0026 in.)
Maximum oil clearance:

the timing tube turns smoothly.
If necessary, replace the timing tube and intake camshaft.
18. INSPECT CAMSHAFT GEAR SPRING
Using vernier calipers, measure the free distance between the
spring ends.
Free distance: 18.2 to 18.8 mm (0.717 to 0.740 in.)
If the free distance is not as specified, replace the gear spring.
19. INSPECT CAMSHAFT BEARINGS
Check the bearings for flaking and scoring.
If the bearings are damaged, replace the bearing caps and cyl-
inder head as a set.
20. INSPECT CAMSHAFT JOURNAL OIL CLEARANCE
