4. Tighten bolts in the order shown in the figure according to the
following procedure:
a. Tighten to 2.0 N·m (0.2 kg-m, 17 in-lb).
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. Tightento12to13N·m(1.2to1.4kg-m,9to10ft-lb).
5. Install camshaft sprockets.
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-59,
“Valve Clearance”.
7. Hereafter, install in the reverse order of removal.

Valve ClearanceNJEM0068CHECKINGNJEM0068S01Check valve clearance while engine is cold and not running.
1. Set the No. 1 piston to TDC on its compression stroke.
Turn crankshaft pulley clockwise so that the knock pin on cam-
shaft LH faces straight above. (No position indicator, etc. is
provided on the crankshaft pulley.)
JEM177G
2. Put an alignment mark with paint, etc. on the crankshaft pul-
ley and on the oil pump as an angle indicator.

d. Hoist up engine and install it on the engine stand (SST).
Another method is to set engine sub-attachment and engine
attachment on engine stand beforehand, and then, install
engine.
3. Drain engine oil and coolant from engine.
4. Remove the following and the associated parts:
Exhaust manifold
Turbocharger assembly (For Europe)
Injection tube
Intake manifold
Oil pan (upper and lower)
Secondary timing chain
Fuel injection pump
Primary timing chain
Rocker cover
High pressure injection nozzle assembly
Camshaft
Cylinder head
Thermostat, water pipes
Oil cooler
Auxiliary component brackets
5. Remove fuel injection pump bracket.

6. If the replacement of pilot bushing is necessary, remove it with
pilot bushing puller (SST).
7. Remove rear oil seal retainer.
Insert a flat-bladed screwdriver between main bearing cap and
rear oil seal retainer to remove retainer.
8. Remove rear oil seal from rear oil seal retainer.
Punch out with a flat-bladed screwdriver.
Be careful not to damage rear oil seal retainer.
JEM195G
9. Remove piston and connecting rod assembly.
a. Set crankshaft pin of the removal location at a position close
to BDC.
b. Remove connecting rod cap.
c. Push piston and connecting rod assembly toward cylinder
head using a hammer handle.
Before removing piston and connecting rod assembly, check
connecting rod side clearance. Refer to EM-70, “CONNECT-
ING ROD SIDE CLEARANCE”.
10. Remove connecting rod bearings from connecting rod and
connecting rod cap.
