Camshaft, Tappet and Shim Removal and
Installation
S6RW0D1406023
CAUTION!
• Keep working table, tools and hands clean
while overhauling.
• Use special care to handle aluminum parts
so as not to damage them.
• Do not expose removed parts to dust.
Keep them always clean.

Removal
1) Remove timing chain cover referring to “Timing
Chain Cover Removal and Installation”.
2) Remove timing chain referring to “Timing Chain and
Chain Tensioner Removal and Installation”.
3) For engine with VVT, with hexagonal section (1) of
intake camshaft (2) held stationary with spanner or
the like, loosen mounting bolt of intake cam timing
sprocket assembly (3) and remove it.
CAUTION!
Never attempt to loosen mounting bolt with
intake cam timing sprocket assembly held
stationary. Failure to follow this could result
in damage to lock pin.
Do not loosen bolt “a” because intake cam
timing sprocket assembly is not serviceable.

4) Loosen camshaft housing bolts in such order as
indicated in figure and remove them.
5) Remove camshaft housings.
6) Remove intake and exhaust camshafts.
7) For engine with VVT, remove camshaft bearings (1).
8) Remove tappets (2) with shims (1).

Installation
1) Install tappets and shims to cylinder head.
Apply engine oil around tappet and then install it to
cylinder head.
NOTE
When installing shim, make sure to direct
shim No. side toward tappet.

2) For engine with VVT, install camshaft bearings (1) to
cylinder head (2) and camshaft housing (3).
CAUTION!
Do not apply engine oil to camshaft bearing
back.
Only a upper half bearing of intake camshaft
bearing No.1 has some holes.

3) Install intake camshaft (1) and exhaust camshaft (2).
Align knock pin (3) and match mark (4) with notches
(5) as shown in figure.
NOTE
Before installing camshafts, turn crankshaft
until key position faces upward.
Refer to “Timing Chain and Chain Tensioner
Removal and Installation”.

4) Apply engine oil to sliding surface of each camshaft
and camshaft journal then install them as shown in
figure.
5) Install camshaft housing pins (1) as shown in figure.

6) Check position of camshaft housings.
Embossed marks are provided on each camshaft
housing, indicating position and direction for
installation. Install housings as indicated by these
marks.
7) After applying engine oil to housing bolts, tighten
them temporarily first. Tighten bolts evenly and
gradually in numerical order (“1” through “21”) by
repeating tightening sequence two or three times
until specified torque is obtained.
Tightening torque
Camshaft housing bolt (a): Tighten 11 N⋅m (1.1

intake camshaft (2) held stationary with spanner or
the like, tighten bolt of intake cam timing sprocket
assembly (3) to specification.
Tightening torque

9) Install timing chain with crankshaft sprocket referring
to “Timing Chain and Chain Tensioner Removal and
Installation”.
10) Install timing chain cover referring to “Timing Chain
Cover Removal and Installation”.
11) Check valve lashes referring to “Valve Lash
(Clearance) Inspection”.
12) Perform Steps 10) to 14) of “Installation” of “Timing
Chain Cover Removal and Installation”.

Intake Cam Timing Sprocket Assembly (For engine
with VVT)
Fit intake cam timing sprocket assembly to camshaft (2)
and hold hexagonal section of camshaft by using
spanner or the like.
Check if sprocket (1) is not turned by hand.
If moved, replace intake cam timing sprocket assembly.
Cam Wear
Using a micrometer, measure cam height “a”. If
measured height underruns its limit, replace camshaft.
Cam height “a”
[For engine with VVT]
[For engine without VVT]Camshaft Runout
Set camshaft between two “V” blocks, and measure its
runout by using a dial gauge.
If measured runout exceeds 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.
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. Cam height Standard Limit

6) Tighten camshaft housing bolts evenly and gradually
in numerical order (“1” through “21”) by repeating
tightening sequence two or three times until
specified torque is obtained.
NOTE
Do not rotate camshaft while gauging plastic
is installed.

7) Remove housing, and using scale (2) on gauging
plastic envelop, measure gauging plastic (1) width at
its widest point.
Camshaft journal clearance
[For engine with VVT system]
[For engine without VVT system]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 difference
from specification is greater.
