INSPECTION
Cam Wear
Using a micrometer, measure cam height “a”. If measured height
is below its limit, replace camshaft.
Cam height “a” of camshaft
Camshaft Runout
Set camshaft between two “V” blocks, and measure its runout by
using a dial gauge.
If measured runout exceeds below limit, replace camshaft.
Camshaft runout limit
0.10 mm (0.0039 in.)
Camshaft Journal Wear
Check camshaft journals and camshaft housings for pitting,
scratches, wear or damage.
If any malcondition is found, replace camshaft or cylinder head
with housing. Never replace cylinder head without replacing
housings.
Standard Limit
Intake cam 44.919 – 45.079 mm
(1.768 – 1.775 in.)44.80 mm
(1.764 in.)
Exhaust cam 44.399 – 44.559 mm

Check clearance by using gauging plastic. Checking procedure is
as follows.
1) Clean housings and camshaft journals.
2) Remove all tappets with shims.
3) Install camshafts to cylinder head.
4) Place a piece of gauging plastic to full width of journal of
camshaft (parallel to camshaft).
5) Install camshaft housing.
6) Tighten camshaft housing bolts in such order as indicated in
figure a little at a time till they are tightened to specified
torque.
Tightening torque
Camshaft housing bolts (a) : 11 N·m (1.1 kg-m, 8.0 lb-ft)
7) Remove housing, and using scale (2) on gauging plastic (1)
envelop, measure gauging plastic width at its widest point.
Camshaft journal clearance
If measured camshaft journal clearance exceeds limit, measure
journal (housing) bore and outside diameter of camshaft journal.
Replace camshaft or cylinder head assembly whichever the dif-
ference from specification is greater.

Camshaft journal bore diameter [B] NOTE:
Do not rotate camshaft while gauging plastic is installed.

Wear of Tappet and Shim
Check tappet and shim for pitting, scratches or damage.
If any malcondition is found, replace.
Measure cylinder head bore and tappet outside diameter to deter-
mine cylinder head-to-tappet clearance. If clearance exceeds
limit, replace tappet or cylinder head.

INSTALLATION
1) Install tappets and shims to cylinder head.
Apply engine oil around tappet and then install it to cylinder
head.
2) Install camshafts (1).
Apply engine oil to sliding surface of each camshaft and
camshaft journal then install them as shown in figure.
3) Install camshaft housing pins (1) as shown in figure.
4) Check position of camshaft housings.
Embossed marks are provided on each camshaft housing,
indicating position and direction for installation. Install hous-
ings as indicated by these marks. NOTE:
When installing shim, make sure to direct shim No. side
toward tappet.
NOTE:
Before installing camshafts, turn crankshaft until key
position faces upward. Refer to “Timing Chain and Chain
Tensioner”.
A. I : Intake side or E : Exhaust side
B. Position from timing chain side
C. Pointing to timing chain side

5) After applying engine oil to housing bolts, tighten them tem-
porarily first. Then tighten them by the following numerical
order in figure. Tighten a little at a time and evenly among

6) Install timing chain with crankshaft sprocket referring to
“Timing Chain and Chain Tensioner” in this section.
7) Install timing chain cover referring to “Timing Chain Cover” in
this section.

tion 6B.
11) Adjust generator belt tension referring to “Water Pump Belt
Tension” in Section 6B.
12) Adjust A/C compressor and/or P/S pump belt tension (if
equipped) referring to “Compressor Drive Belt” in Section 1B
or “Power Steering Belt” in Section 3B1.
13) Refill cooling system with coolant, engine with engine oil and
A/T with specified A/T fluid (vehicle with A/T).
14) Verify that there is no coolant leakage, oil leakage and A/T
fluid leakage (vehicle with A/T) at each connection.
