c. Slowly turn intake camshaft in direction A (counterclockwise:
intake manifold side).
●Perform while applying air pressure.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to dislocate camshaft retaining spanner.
d. During above step, operating click (a sound indicating internal
lock pin is disengaged) is heard from inside of intake camshaft
sprocket. After hearing it, slowly turn intake camshaft in direction
B (clockwise: exhaust manifold side), and set to most advanced
position.
●Perform while applying air pressure.
●When vane rotates solely against sprocket, lock pin is disengaged even if operating click is not heard.
●If lock pin is not disengaged, apply vibration by jiggling the camshaft with a spanner.
●If lock pin is not disengaged with above step, hit intake camshaft in front by using plastic hammer.
e. The following status indicates that most advanced position is
achieved: vane starts rotating on its own, then sprocket also
starts rotating when camshaft is turned. When above status is
achieved, this step is complete.
●Most advanced position is confirmed when stopper pin groove
and lock pin breathing groove are aligned.
f. Stop air, insert stopper pin [approximately 3 mm (0.12 in) dia.,
length of inserted part is approximately 15 mm (0.59 in)] into
pinhole on camshaft sprocket to fix most advanced position.
NOTE:
In the figure, an Allen wrench [a/f 2.5 mm (0.091 in), short part:
approximately 20 mm (0.79 in), long part: approximately 50 mm
(1.97 in)] is used for stopper pin as an example.
CAUTION:
Load (spring reaction force) is not applied to stopper pin.
Pin is easily detached. Therefore, secure it with vinyl tape to
prevent detachment.
5. Remove chain tensioner.
●Remove in the following order.
a. Press plate down, and release stopper tab.
b. Insert plunger into tensioner body until it stops.
c. Secure plate by passing stopper pin (such as a hard wire)
through plate hole and body hole. (Plunger is also secured.)
d. Remove mounting bolts, and remove chain tensioner.

8. Remove stopper pin from intake camshaft sprocket.
9. Slowly turn crankshaft pulley clockwise to set intake camshaft
sprocket to most retarded position.
●Sprocket begins turning after crankshaft does. Once sprocket
starts turning, keep turning crankshaft until the vane (cam-
shaft) also begins turning. Most retarded position should now
be achieved.
●Most retarded position is confirmed when stopper pin groove
is at a clockwise offset from lock pin breathing groove.
●While turning crankshaft slightly more counterclockwise, con-
firm that lock pin is engaged when vane and sprocket turn
together.
10. Install cylinder head front cover.
●Apply liquid gasket (Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equiva-
lent) continuously as shown in figure.
●Install it by aligning dowel pin on cylinder head.
11. Check and adjust valve clearance. Refer to EM-42, "
Va l v e
Clearance" .
12. From this step, install in the reverse order of removal.

3. Remove front chain case.
Move power steering fluid reservoir tank from the bracket.
Loosen fixing bolts in the reverse order of that shown in the
figure and remove them.
Remove No. 6, 10, and 11 bolts with the rubber washer as
space is limited for pulling them out.

CAUTION:
While front chain case is removed, cover openings to pre-
vent entry of foreign material into engine.
Do not remove two mass dampers on the back of cover.

4. Set the No. 1 piston to TDC on its compression stroke.
Turn crankshaft pulley clockwise so that the alignment mark
(punched mark) on each camshaft sprocket is positioned as
shown in the figure.
No position indicator is provided on the crankshaft pulley.
When installing, color coded links on the secondary tim-
ing chain can be used as alignment marks. Marking may
not be necessary for removal; however, make alignment
marks as required because the alignment mark on fuel
injection pump sprocket may not be easy to see.

5. Remove chain tensioner.
a. Push the plunger of chain tensioner and keep it pressed with
a push pin.

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”.

specification. They will be used later to determine the required
replacement adjusting shim.
Valve clearance for checking (Cold):
Intake
0.24 - 0.32 mm (0.0094 - 0.0126 in)

HOW TO SWITCH DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE
NOTE:
●It is better to count the time accurately with a clock.
●It is impossible to switch the diagnostic mode when an accelerator pedal position sensor circuit
has a malfunction.
●Always ECM returns to Diagnostic Test Mode I after ignition switch is turned “OFF”.
How to Set Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-diagnostic Results)
1. Confirm that accelerator pedal is fully released, turn ignition switch “ON” and wait 3 seconds.
2. Repeat the following procedure quickly five times within 5 seconds.
a. Fully depress the accelerator pedal.
b. Fully release the accelerator pedal.
3. Wait 7 seconds, fully depress the accelerator pedal and keep it for approx. 10 seconds until the MI starts
blinking.
4. Fully release the accelerator pedal.
ECM has entered to Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-diagnostic results).
How to Set Diagnostic Test Mode II (Heated Oxygen Sensor 1 Monitor)
1. Set the ECM in Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-diagnostic results). Refer to EC-51, "How to Set Diagnostic
Test Mode II (Self-diagnostic Results)" .
2. Start Engine.
ECM has entered to Diagnostic Test Mode II (Heated oxygen sensor 1 monitor).
How to Erase Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-diagnostic Results)
1. Set ECM in Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-diagnostic results). Refer to EC-51, "How to Set Diagnostic Test
Mode II (Self-diagnostic Results)" .
2. Fully depress the accelerator pedal and keep it for more than 10 seconds.
The emission-related diagnostic information has been erased from the backup memory in the ECM.
3. Fully release the accelerator pedal, and confirm the DTC 0000 is displayed.
DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE I — BULB CHECK
In this mode, the MI on the instrument panel should stay ON. If it remains OFF, check the bulb. Refer to EL-
129 or see EC-397
.
DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE I — MALFUNCTION WARNING
●These DTC numbers are clarified in Diagnostic Test Mode II (SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS)
DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE II — SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS
In this mode, the DTC and 1st trip DTC are indicated by the number of blinks of the MI as shown below.
The DTC and 1st trip DTC are displayed at the same time. If the MI does not illuminate in diagnostic test mode
I (Malfunction warning), all displayed items are 1st trip DTCs. If only one code is displayed when the MI illumi-
nates in diagnostic test mode II (SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS), it is a DTC; if two or more codes are dis-
played, they may be either DTCs or 1st trip DTCs. DTC No. is same as that of 1st trip DTC. These unidentified
