NOTICE:
Since the thrust clearance of the camshaft is small, the
camshaft must be kept level while being removed. If the
camshaft is not kept level, the cylinder head or camshaft
may be damaged. To avoid this, the following steps must
be carried out.
(a) Align the timing marks (1 dot marks) of the camshaft drive
and driven gears by turning the camshaft with a wrench.

NOTICE:
Since the thrust clearance of the camshaft is small, the
camshaft must be kept level while being installed. If the
camshaft is not kept level, the cylinder head or camshaft
may be damaged. To avoid this, the following steps must
be carried out.
(a) Apply new engine oil to the thrust portion and journal of
the camshaft.
(b) Align the timing marks (1 dot marks) of the camshaft drive
and driven gears.
(c) Place the camshaft to the cylinder head.
(d) Install the 5 bearing caps in their proper locations.
(e) Apply a light coat of engine oil to the threads of the bear-
ing cap bolts.
