CYLINDER HEAD
DESCRIPTION
The cross flow designed, aluminum cylinder head
contains dual over-head camshafts with four valves
per cylinder (Fig. 13). The valves are arranged in two
in-line banks. The intake valves face toward the
front of the vehicle. The exhaust valves face the dash
panel. The cylinder head incorporates powdered
metal valve guides and seats. The cylinder head is
sealed to the block using a multi-layer steel head
gasket and retaining bolts.
Integral oil galleries provide lubrication passages
to the hydraulic lash adjusters, camshafts, and valve
mechanisms.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTINGÐCYLINDER HEAD
GASKET
A cylinder head gasket leak can be located between
adjacent cylinders or between a cylinder and the
adjacent water jacket.
Possible indications of the cylinder head gasket
leaking between adjacent cylinders are:
²Loss of engine power
²Engine misfiring
²Poor fuel economy
Possible indications of the cylinder head gasket
leaking between a cylinder and an adjacent water
jacket are:
²Engine overheating
²Loss of coolant
Fig. 11 AIR BOX COVER
Fig. 12 IAT SENSOR 2.4L
9 - 24 ENGINE 2.4LRS

²Excessive steam (white smoke) emitting from
exhaust
²Coolant foaming
CYLINDER-TO-CYLINDER LEAKAGE TEST
To determine if an engine cylinder head gasket is
leaking between adjacent cylinders, follow the proce-
dures in Cylinder Compression Pressure Test (Refer
to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). An
engine cylinder head gasket leaking between adja-
cent cylinders will result in approximately a 50±70%
reduction in compression pressure.
CYLINDER-TO-WATER JACKET LEAKAGE TEST
WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN THE
ENGINE IS OPERATING WITH COOLANT PRES-
SURE CAP REMOVED.
VISUAL TEST METHOD
With the engine cool, remove the coolant pressure
cap. Start the engine and allow it to warm up until
thermostat opens.
If a large combustion/compression pressure leak
exists, bubbles will be visible in the coolant.COOLING SYSTEM TESTER METHOD
WARNING: WITH COOLING SYSTEM TESTER IN
PLACE, PRESSURE WILL BUILD UP FAST. EXCES-
SIVE PRESSURE BUILT UP, BY CONTINUOUS
ENGINE OPERATION, MUST BE RELEASED TO A
SAFE PRESSURE POINT. NEVER PERMIT PRES-
SURE TO EXCEED 138 kPa (20 psi).
Install Cooling System Tester 7700 or equivalent to
pressure cap neck. Start the engine and observe the
tester's pressure gauge. If gauge pulsates with every
power stroke of a cylinder a combustion pressure
leak is evident.
CHEMICAL TEST METHOD
Combustion leaks into the cooling system can also
be checked by using Bloc-Chek Kit C-3685-A or
equivalent. Perform test following the procedures
supplied with the tool kit.

CAMSHAFT(S)
DESCRIPTION
Both camshafts have six bearing journal surfaces
and two cam lobes per cylinder (Fig. 23). Flanges at
the rear journals control camshaft end play. Provision
for a cam position sensor is located on the intake
camshaft on the rear of the cylinder head. A hydro-
dynamic oil seal is used for oil control at the front of
the camshaft.
OPERATION
The camshaft is driven by the crankshaft via drive
sprockets and belt. The camshaft has precisely
machined lobes to provide accurate valve timing and
duration.

WITHOUTrocker arms. Install rear cam caps and
tighten screws to specified torque.
(2) Using a suitable tool, move camshaft as far
rearward as it will go.
(3) Zero dial indicator (Fig. 24).
(4) Move camshaft as far forward as it will go.
(5) Record reading on dial indicator. For end play
specification, (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - SPECIFICA-
TIONS).
(6) If end play is excessive, check cylinder head
and camshaft for wear; replace as necessary.
REMOVAL
(1) Remove cylinder head cover (Refer to 9 -
ENGINE/CYLINDER HEAD/CYLINDER HEAD
COVER - REMOVAL).
(2) Remove camshaft position sensor and camshaft
target magnet (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/IGNITION
CONTROL/CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR -
REMOVAL).
(3) Remove timing belt (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/
VALVE TIMING/TIMING BELT AND SPROCKETS -
REMOVAL).(4) Remove camshaft sprockets and timing belt

CAUTION: Camshafts are not interchangeable. The
intake cam number 6 thrust bearing face spacing is
wider.
(7) Identify the camshafts before removing from
the head. The camshafts are not interchangeable.
(8) Remove camshafts from cylinder head.
NOTE: If removing rocker arms, identify for reinstal-
lation in the original position.

INSPECTION
(1) Inspect camshaft bearing journals for damage
and binding (Fig. 27). If journals are binding, check
the cylinder head for damage. Also check cylinder
head oil holes for clogging.
(2) Check the cam lobe and bearing surfaces for
abnormal wear and damage. Replace camshaft if
defective.
NOTE: If camshaft is replaced due to lobe wear or
damage, always replace the rocker arms.
(3) Measure the lobe actual wear (unworn area -
wear zone = actual wear) (Fig. 27) and replace cam-
shaft if out of limit. Standard value is 0.0254 mm
(0.001 in.), wearlimitis 0.254 mm (0.010 in.).
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Ensure that NONE of the pistons are at
top dead center when installing the camshafts.
(1) Lubricate all camshaft bearing journals, rocker
arms and camshaft lobes.
(2) Install all rocker arms in original positions, if
reused.
(3) Position camshafts on cylinder head bearing
journals. Install right and left camshaft bearing caps
No.2±5andright No. 6. Tighten M6 fasteners to 12
N´m (105 in. lbs.) in sequence shown in (Fig. 28).
(4) Apply MopartGasket Maker to No. 1 and No.
6 bearing caps (Fig. 29). Install bearing caps and
tighten M8 fasteners to 28 N´m (250 in. lbs.).
NOTE: Bearing end caps must be installed before
seals can be installed.
(5) Install camshaft oil seals (Refer to 9 -
ENGINE/CYLINDER HEAD/CAMSHAFT OIL
SEAL(S) - INSTALLATION).
