Removal and Installation
IThis engine will have a different valve arrangement from nor-
mal DOHC 4-valve type engines. As both camshafts on this
engine have intake and exhaust cams, in this chapter they are
named as follows:
Camshaft (Right side): Intake manifold side camshaft
Camshaft (Left side): Exhaust manifold side camshaft
IThe same parts are used for the right and left sides.
IRefer to the figure for intake and exhaust valve arrangement.
(The camshafts have, alternately, either an intake valve or an
exhaust valve.)
Removal
1. Set the No. 1 cylinder at TDC, then remove the chain case,
timing chain and other parts in connection. Refer to ªTIMING
CHAINº, EM-26.
2. Remove the cam gear.
ILoosen the cam gear installation bolt by fixing the hexagonal
portion of the camshaft.
IThe idler gear cannot be removed at this point as the gear case
is in the way. (The cylinder head can be removed as a single
unit.)

3. Remove injection tube and injection nozzle assembly. Refer to
EC section, ªInjection Tube and Injection Nozzleº in ªBASIC
SERVICE PROCEDUREº.
4. Remove the camshaft.
IPlace distinguishing marks on the right and left sides with paint.
ILoosen and remove the installation bolt in reverse order shown
in the figure.
5. Remove the adjusting shim and valve lifter.
IRemove by taking notice of the installation position, and place
outside engine in order to prevent confusion.
Inspection
VISUAL CHECK OF CAMSHAFT
ICheck the camshaft for one sided wear or scratches.
IReplace the camshaft if there are abnormalities.
CAMSHAFT RUNOUT
IPrepare V-block on a flat surface and secure camshaft journals
No. 1 and No. 5.
ISet the dial gauge vertically on journal No. 3.
IRotate camshaft in one direction by hand, then read needle
movement on dial indicator.
Camshaft bend value is 1/2 of needle movement.
Limit: 0.02 mm (0.0008 in)
HEIGHT OF CAM NOSE
Measure by using a micrometer.
Standard:
Intake
40.488 0.02 mm (1.5940 0.0008 in)
Exhaust
40.850 0.02 mm (1.6083 0.0008 in)
CAMSHAFT OIL CLEARANCE
Measure by using a micrometer.
Cam journal outer diameter:
Standard
29.931 - 29.955 mm (1.1784 - 1.1793 in) dia.

CAMSHAFT BRACKET INNER DIAMETER
IInstall camshaft bracket and tighten bolts to the specified
torque.
IMeasure inner diameter of camshaft bracket using an inside
micrometer.
Standard: 30.000 - 30.021 mm (1.1811 - 1.1819 in) dia.
CAMSHAFT OIL CLEARANCE CALCULATIONS
Oil clearance = Cam bracket inner diameter þ Cam journal outer
diameter
Standard: 0.045 - 0.090 mm (0.0018 - 0.0035 in) dia.
IIf it exceeds the standard value, refer to the standard value of
each unit, then replace the camshaft and/or cylinder head.
IAs the camshaft bracket is manufactured with the cylinder
head, it is impossible to replace only the camshaft bracket.
CAMSHAFT END PLAY
ISet the dial gauge to the front end of the camshaft. Measure
the end play by moving the camshaft in the direction of the axle.
Standard: 0.065 - 0.169 mm (0.0026 - 0.0067 in)
Limit: 0.2 mm (0.0079 in)
IIf end play exceeds the limit, replace camshaft and measure
camshaft end play again.
IIf end play still exceeds the limit after replacing camshaft,
replace cylinder head.
VISUAL INSPECTION OF VALVE LIFTER
Check lifter side for any signs of wear or damage. Replace if there
are any abnormalities.
VISUAL INSPECTION OF ADJUSTING SHIM
Check cam nose contact and sliding surfaces for wear and
scratches. Replace if there are any abnormalities.
VALVE LIFTER CLEARANCE
Measure the outer diameter of the valve lifter with a micrometer.
Standard: 34.450 - 34.465 mm (1.3563 - 1.3569 in) dia.

VALVE LIFTER BORE DIAMETER
Measure the bore diameter of the cylinder head valve lifter with an
inside micrometer.
Standard: 34.495 - 34.515 mm (1.3581 - 1.3589 in) dia.
VALVE LIFTER CLEARANCE CALCULATIONS
Clearance = Valve lifter bore diameter þ Valve lifter outer diameter
Standard: 0.030 - 0.065 mm (0.0012 - 0.0026 in)
If it exceeds the standard value, refer to the outer diameter and
bore diameter standard values and replace valve lifter and/or cyl-
inder head.
Installation
1. Install the valve lifter and adjusting shim.
IMake sure that these are installed in the same position as
before the removal process.
2. Install the camshaft.
IFollow the distinguishing marks that were placed on in the
removal process.
IFace the key in the direction shown in the figure.
3. Install the camshaft bracket.
IRefer to the camshaft bracket upper side journal No. and install.
ILooking from the exhaust manifold side (left side of engine),
install in the direction that the journal number can be read cor-
rectly.
IPlace baffle plate onto upper face of No. 1 camshaft bracket,
and tighten together.
4. Tighten the installation bolts in numerical order in the figure.
1) Tighten to 10 to 14 N×m (1.0 to 1.5 kg-m, 8 to 10 ft-lb).
IMake sure that the thrust portion of the camshaft is fitted prop-
erly in the head installation side.
2) Tighten to 20 to 23 N×m (2.0 to 2.4 kg-m, 15 to 17 ft-lb).

gear to the position shown in the figure.
ITighten the cam gear installation bolt by fixing the hexagonal
portion of the camshaft.
6. Install the timing chain, all other related parts and chain cover.
Refer to ªTIMING CHAINº, EM-26.
7. After installing the timing chain, check and adjust the valve
clearance before installing the spill tube.
Refer to ªVALVE CLEARANCEº, EM-35.
8. Install in the reverse order of removal.

Inspection
IWhen the camshaft or parts in connection with valves are
removed or replaced, and a fault has occurred (poor starting,
idling, or other faults) due to the misadjustment of the valve
clearance, inspect as follows.
IInspect and adjust when the engine is cool (at normal tempera-
ture).
IBe careful of the intake and exhaust valve arrangement. (The
valve arrangement is different from that in a normal engine.)
(The camshafts have, alternately, either an intake valve or an
exhaust valve.)
1. Remove the following parts.

2. Set the No. 1 cylinder at TDC.
1) Rotate the crankshaft pulley clockwise, and align the TDC mark
of the crankshaft pulley with the timing indicator of the TDC
sensor bracket.
2) Confirm that the cam nose of the No. 1 cylinder and the knock
pin of the cam sprocket is in the position shown in the figure.
IRotate the crankshaft pulley again if not in the position shown
in the figure.
3. While referring to the figure, measure the valve clearance in the
circled area of the table below.

lows.
Adjustments
IRemove the adjusting shim for parts which are outside the
specified valve clearance.
1. Remove the spill tube.
2. Extract the engine oil on the upper side of the cylinder head (for
the air gun used in step 7).
3. Rotate the crankshaft to face the cam for adjusting shims that
are to be removed upward.
4. Grip the camshaft with camshaft pliers (SST), the using the
camshaft as a support point, push the adjusting shim downward
to compress the valve spring.
CAUTION:
Do not damage the camshaft, cylinder head, or the outer cir-
cumference of the valve lifter.
5. With the valve spring in a compressed state, remove the cam-
shaft pliers (SST) by securely setting the outer circumference
of the valve lifter with the end of the lifter stopper (SST).
IHold the lifter stopper by hand until the shim is removed.
CAUTION:
Do not retrieve the camshaft pliers forcefully, as the camshaft
will be damaged.
6. Move the rounded hole of the adjusting shim to the front with a
very thin screwdriver.
IWhen the adjusting shim on the valve lifter will not rotate
smoothly, restart from step 4 with the end of the lifter stopper
(SST) touching the adjusting shim.
7. Remove the adjusting shim from the valve lifter by blowing air
through the rounded hole of the shim with an air gun.
CAUTION:
To prevent any remaining oil from being blown around, thor-
oughly wipe the area clean and wear protective goggles.
