1. Inspect the valve stem-to-guide clearance
(see page 6-55). If the valve guides are worn,
replace them (see page 6-56) before cutting the
valve seats.
2. Renew the valve seats in the cylinder head using a valve seat cutter.
3. Carefully cut a 45 ° seat, removing only enough material to ensure a smooth and concentric seat.
4. Bevel the upper and lower edges at the angles
shown in the illustration.
Check the width of the seat and adjust accordingly. 5. Make one more very light pass with the 45 ° cutter
to remove any possible burrs caused by the other
cutters.
6. After resurfacing the seat, inspect for even valve seating. Apply Prussian Blue compound (A) to the
valve face. Insert the valve in its original location in
the head, then lift it and snap it closed against the
seat several times.
7. The actual valve seating surface (B), as shown by the blue compound, should be centered on the seat.
If it is too high (closer to the valve stem), you must make a second cut with the 67.5 ° cutter to
move it down, then one more cut with the 45 °
cutter to restore seat width.
If it is too low (close to the valve edge), you must make a second cut with the 35 ° cutter (intake
side) or the 30 ° cutter (exhaust side) to move it
up, then make one more cut with the 45 ° cutter
to restore seat width.
NOTE: The final cut should always be made with
the 45 ° cutter.

3. Use the crank bore codes and crank journal codes
to select the appropriate replacement bearings
from the following table.
NOTE: Color code is on the edge of the bearing.
When using bearing halves of different colors, it does not matter which color is used in the top or
bottom. 1. Remove the oil pump (see page 8-16).
2. Remove the baffle plates (see step 8 on page 7-13).
3. Remove the connecting rod cap and the bearing
half.
4. Clean the crankshaft rod journal and the bearing half with a clean shop towel.
5. Place plastigage across the rod journal.
6. Reinstall the bearing half and connecting rod cap, and tighten the bolts to 20 N·m (2.0 kgf·m, 14 lbf·ft)90 ° (K20Z2 engine) or 29 N·m (3.0 kgf·m,
22 lbf·ft) 90 ° (K20Z3 engine).
NOTE: Apply new engine oil to the bolt threads and flanges.
Do not rotate the crankshaft during inspection.
7. Remove the connecting rod cap and the bearing half, and measure the widest part of the plastigage.

The fuel line/quick-connect fittings (A), (B), (C), (D), and
(E) connect the fuel rail (F) to fuel feed hose A (G), fuel
feed hose A to fuel feed hose B (H), fuel feed hose B to
the fuel line (I), the fuel line (J) to the fuel tank unit (K),
the fuel vapor line (L) to the EVAP canister (M) and the
fuel tank vapor recirculation tube (N) to the fuel fill pipe
(O). When removing or installing the fuel feed hose, the
fuel tank unit, or the fuel tank, you need to disconnect
or connect the quick-connect fittings.
Pay attention to the following: The fuel feed hoses, the fuel line, and the quick- connect fittings are not heat-resistant; be careful not
to damage them during welding or other heat-
generating procedures.
The fuel feed hoses, the fuel line, and the quick- connect fittings are not acid-proof; do not touch them
with a shop towel that was used for wiping battery
electrolyte. Replace them if they come in contact with
electrolyte or something similar.
When connecting or disconnecting the fuel feed hoses, the fuel line, and the quick-connect fittings, be
careful not to bend or twist them excessively. Replace
them if they are damaged.
A disconnected quick-connect fitting can be
reconnected, but the retainer on the mating line cannot
be reused once it has been removed from the line.
Replace the retainer when: replacing the fuel rail.
replacing the fuel line.
replacing the fuel pump.
replacing the fuel filter.
replacing the fuel gauge sending unit.
replacing the EVAP purge line.
replacing the EVAP canister.
replacing the fuel tank.
replacing the fuel fill pipe.
