CAUTION:

Before removing and installing fuel pump, be sure to remove sprocket. Do not loosen or remove
installation nut in the center of fuel pump. If loosened or removed, replace fuel pump.

After removing timing chain, do not turn crankshaft and camshaft separately, or valves will strike
piston heads.

When installing camshafts, chain tensioners, oil seals, or other sliding parts, lubricate contacting
surfaces with new engine oil.

CAMSHAFT


Be careful of the intake and exhaust valve arrangement. The
valve arrangement is different from that in a normal engine.
NOTE:
The camshafts have, alternately, either intake valve or exhaust
valve. (Refer to figure.)

Removal and Installation" .
2. Remove air duct. Refer to EM-133, "
Removal and Installation" .
3. Remove rocker cover. Refer to EM-168, "
Removal and Installation" .
4. Remove fuel injector. Refer to EM-157, "
Removal and Installation" .
5. Set the No. 1 piston to TDC on its compression stroke.

Turn crankshaft pulley clockwise so that the knock pin on
camshaft left side faces straight above. (No position indicator,
etc. is provided on the crankshaft pulley.)
6. Put an alignment mark with paint, etc. on crankshaft pulley and
on oil pump housing as an angle indicator.
7. While referring to the figure, measure the valve clearance
marked in the table below.
NOTE:

The injection order is 1-3-4-2.
