(4) Confirm if the camshaft timing gear assembly re-
volves in the timing advance direction when weak-
ening the air pressure of the timing retard path.
HINT:
When the lock pin is released, the camshaft timing gear re-
volves in the advance direction.
(5) When the camshaft timing gear comes to the most
advanced position, take out the air pressure of the
timing retard side path, and then take out that of tim-
ing advance side path.
CAUTION:
Camshaft timing assembly gear occasionally shifts to the
retard side abruptly, if the air compression of the advanced
side path is released first. It often causes the breakage of
the lock pin.
(c) Check smooth revolution
(1) Revolve the camshaft timing gear assembly within
the movable range [20 (40CA)] except for the
most retarded position several times, and check the
smooth revolution.
CAUTION:
Be sure to perform this check by hand, instead of air pres-
sure.
(d) Check the lock in the most retarded position.
(1) Confirm that the camshaft timing gear assembly is
locked at the most retarded position.
16. REMOVE CAMSHAFT TIMING GEAR ASSY
(a) Clamp the camshaft in a vice, and confirm that the gear
is locked.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the camshaft.
(b) Cover 4 oil paths of cam journal with vinyl tape as shown
in the illustration.
HINT:
The one of the 2 glooves on the cam journal is for retards (up-
per) and the rest is for advances (lower). Each groove has the
2 oil paths. Plug one of the oil paths for each groove with rubber
pieces before wrapping the cam journal with the tape.
(1) Punctuate the tape for the advance oil path and for
the retard oil path in the opposite side from the ad-
vance as shown in the illustration.

(c) Put air pressure into two broken paths (the advance side
path and the retard side path) with about 150 kPa {1.5
kgfcm}.
CAUTION:
Cover the paths with shop rag to avoid oil splashing.
(d) Confirm if the camshaft timing gear assembly revolves in
the timing advance direction when weakening the air
pressure of the timing retard path.
HINT:
When the lock pin is released, the camshaft timing gear re-
volves in the advance direction.
(e) When the camshaft timing gear comes to the most ad-
vanced position, take out the air pressure of the timing re-
tard side path, next, take out that of timing advance side
path.
CAUTION:
Camshaft timing gear assembly occasionally shifts to the
retard side abruptly, if the air compression of the advanced
side path is released first. It often causes the breakage of
the lock pin.
(f) Remove the fringe bolt of camshaft timing gear assembly.
NOTICE:
Be sure not to remove the other 4 bolts.
In case of reusing the camshaft timing gear, release
the straight pin lock first, and then install the gear.
17. INSTALL CAMSHAFT TIMING GEAR ASSY
(a) Put the camshaft timing gear assembly and the camshaft
together with the straight pin off the key groove.
(b) Turn the camshaft timing gear assembly clockwise (as
shown in the illustration) while pushing it lightly against
the camshaft. Push further at the position where the pin
gets into the groove.
CAUTION:
Be sure not to turn the camshaft timing gear to the retard
angle side (to the right angle).

HINT:
Inspect and adjust the valve clearance when the engine is cold.
(a) Check only the valve indicated in the illustration.(1) Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance be-tween the valve lifter and camshaft.
(2) Record the out±of specification valve clearance measurements. They will be used later to determine
the required replacement adjusting shim.
Valve clearance (Cold):
Intake 0.19 to 0.29 mm (0.0075 to 0.0114 in.)
Exhaust 0.30 to 0.40 mm (0.0118 to 0.0157 in.)
(b) Turn the crankshaft clockwise 1 revolution (360 ) and set
No. 4 cylinder to TDC/compression.
(c) Check only the valve indicated in the illustration. (1) Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance be-tween the valve lifter and camshaft.
(2) Record the out±of specification valve clearance measurements. They will be used later to determine
the required replacement adjusting shim.
Valve clearance (Cold):
Intake 0.19 to 0.29 mm (0.0075 to 0.0114 in.)
Exhaust 0.30 to 0.40 mm (0.0118 to 0.0157 in.)

EXAMPLE: (Intake)
Measure valve clearance = 0.44 mm (0.0173 in.)
0.44 mm (0.0173 in.) ± 0.24 mm (0.0094 in.) = 0.20 mm (0.0079 in\
.)
(Measured ± Specification = Excess clearance)
Used shim measurement = 5.30 mm (0.2087 in.)
0.20 mm (0.0079 in.) + 5.30 mm (0.2087 in.) = 5.50 mm (0.2165 in.)\
(Excess clearance + Used shim = Ideal new shim)
Closest new shim = 5.50 mm (0.2165 in.) = Shim No. º50º

NOTICE:
Be sure not to turn the crankshaft without the chain ten-
sioner.
(a)Set the No. 1 cylinder to TDC/compression.
(See page 14±171)
(b)Remove the chain tensioner. (See page 14±171)
(c)Remove the camshafts. (See page 14±171)
(d) Tie the timing chain with a string.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to drop anything inside the timing chain cov-
er.
(e) Remove the valve lifters.
(f) Using a micrometer, measure the thickness of the re-
moved lifter.
(g) Calculate the thickness of a new lifter so that the valve
clearance comes within the specified valve.
AThickness of new lifter
BThickness of used lifter
CMeasured valve clearance
Valve clearance:
Intake: A = B + (C ± 0.24 mm (0.0094 in.))
Exhaust: A = B + (C ± 0.35 mm (0.0138 in.))
HINT:
Select a new lifter with a thickness as close as possible
to the calculated valves.
Lifter are available in 35 sizes in increments of 0.020 mm
(0.0008 in.), from 5.060 mm (0.1992 in.) to 5.740 mm
(0.2260 in.).
Identification number inside the valve lifter shows the val-
ue of the 2 decimal places. (The illustration shows 5.380
mm (0.2118 in.))
Refer to the New Lifter Thickness table on the next 2
pages.

(3)While cranking the engine, measure the compres-
sion pressure.
Compression pressure:
1,300 kPa (13.3 kgf/cm
2, 189 psi)
Minimum pressure:
1000 kPa (10.2 kgf/cm
2, 145 psi)
Difference between each cylinder:
100 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2, 14 psi)
NOTICE:
Always use a fully charged battery to obtain engine
speed of 250 rpm or more.
Check other cylinder's compression pressure in the
same way.
This measurement must be done in as short a time as
possible.
(4)If the cylinder compression is low, pour a small amount of engine oil into the cylinder through the
spark plug hole and inspect again.
HINT:
If adding oil increases the compression, the piston rings
and/or cylinder bore may be worn or damaged.
If pressure stays low, a valve may be sticking or seating
improperly, or there may be leakage past the gasket.
10.INSPECT CO/HC
(a)Start the engine.
(b)Run the engine at 2,500 rpm for approximately 180 seconds.
(c)Insert CO/HC meter testing probe at least 40 cm (1.3 ft) into the tail\
pipe during idling.
(d)Check CO/HC concentration at idle. Idle CO concentration: 0 to 0.5 %
Idle HC concentration: Applicable local regulation
(e)If the CO/HC concentration does not conform to specifications, perform troubleshooting in the order given below.
(1)Check heated oxygen sensor operation. (See page 12±6)
(2) See the table below for possible causes, and then inspect and repair the applicable causes ifnecessary.
