Though camshaft does not stop at the location as shown in
the figure, for the placement of cam nose, it is generally
accepted that camshaft is placed at the same direction as
shown in the figure.

following procedure:
a. Tighten all bolts.

Make sure camshaft thrusting parts (on rear side) securely fit
in their mating parts on the cylinder head.
b. Tighten all bolts.
c. Tighten all bolts.
5. Install camshaft sprockets.

Camshaft sprockets are commonly used for right side and left side.

Align camshaft sprocket and knock 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-185, "

INSPECTION

When the camshaft or parts in connection with valves are removed or replaced, and a malfunction has
occurred (poor starting, idling, or other malfunction) due to the misadjustment of the valve clearance,
inspect as follows.

Inspect and adjust when the engine is cool (at normal temperature).

PRIMARY TIMING CHAIN

a. Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket with the tube presser
(special service tool: WS39930000) on locations shown in the
figure.
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.
b. Install four O-rings to the grooves of the cylinder block and fuel
pump bracket.
c. Install rear chain case.

When installing, align the dowel pin with the pin hole.A : Apply bead so that it does not protrude into the
oil passage.
B. C : Minimize overlapping area of bead, by starting
and ending at areas of bead as shown in the fig-
ure. Apply so that the portion marked.
D : Leave the start and end areas of the bead slightly
protruding from the case surface.
* : comes at an external location but cannot be
viewed externally after engine assembly.

c. Tighten 180 degrees in numerical order as shown (angle tight-
ening).
d. Loosen completely in reverse order of that shown in the figure.
e. Tighten all bolts in numerical order as shown.
f. Tighten 90 degrees in numerical order as shown (angle tighten-
ing).
g. Tighten another 90 degrees in numerical order as shown (angle
tightening).
CAUTION:

When the angle wrench (special service tool) is not used, paint an alignment mark on the head
of cylinder head bolt and cylinder head surface before tightening. Check the angle with a pro-
tractor.
4. Install glow plug.
CAUTION:

To avoid damage, glow plugs should be removed only when required.

Handle with care to avoid applying shock. When dropped from approx. 10 cm (3.94 in) or higher,
always replace with a new one.

Before installing, remove carbon depositing on mounting hole of glow plug with a reamer.
5. Install in the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection for Leaks
The following are procedures for checking fluids leak, lubricates leak and exhaust gases leak.

Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-17, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

Before starting engine, bleed air from fuel piping. Refer to FL-18, "Air Bleeding" .

Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.

Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gases, or any oil/fluids
including engine oil and engine coolant.

Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.

After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary.
Summary of the inspection items:
* Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.

5. Using the valve guide drift (commercial service tool), press fit
valve guides from camshaft side, referring to the dimension
shown in the figure.
CAUTION:
Cylinder head contains heat, when working, wear protective
equipment to avoid getting burned.
6. Using the valve guide reamer (commercial service tool), perform
reaming to the press-fitted valve guides.
Valve Seat Contact

Before starting this check, confirm that the dimension of valve
guide and valves are as specified.

Apply red lead primer on contacting surfaces of valves seat and
of valve face to examine the conditions of contacting surfaces.

Make sure that the paint on contacting surfaces is continuous
along the entire circumference.

If there are abnormal indications, grind the valve and check the
contact again. If malfunction indications still persist, replace
valve seat. Refer to EM-219, "
Valve Seat Replacement" .
Valve Seat Replacement
When removing valve seat, replace it with oversized [0.5 mm (0.020 in)] valve seat.
1. Bore out old seat until it collapses. Boring should not continue beyond the bottom face of the seat recess
in cylinder head. Set the machine depth stop to ensure this. Refer to EM-261, "
Va l v e S e a t" .
2. Ream cylinder head recess diameter for service valve seat.

Be sure to ream in circles concentric to the valve guide center.

This will enable valve seat to fit correctly.Projection length “H” : 10.4 - 10.6 mm (0.409 - 0.417 in)

WARNING:

Situate vehicle on a flat and solid surface.

Place chocks at front and back of rear wheels.

For engines not equipped with engine slingers, attach proper slingers and bolts described in
PARTS CATALOG.
CAUTION:

Always be careful to work safely, avoid forceful or uninstructed operations.

Do not start working until exhaust system and engine coolant are cool enough.

If items or work required are not covered by the engine main body section, refer to the applicable
sections.

Always use the support point specified for lifting.

Use either 2-pole lift type or separate type lift as best you can. If board-on type is used for
unavoidable reasons, support at the rear axle jacking point with transmission jack or similar tool
before starting work, in preparation for the backward shift of center of gravity.

For supporting points for lifting and jacking point at rear axle, refer to GI-36, "Garage Jack and
Safety Stand" .
