Camshaft End Play

Install a dial indicator in thrust direction on front end of camshaft.
Measure the end play of a dial indicator when camshaft is
moved forward/backward (in direction to axis).

Measure the following parts if out of the limit.
–Dimension “A” for camshaft No. 1 journal
–Dimension “B” for cylinder head No. 1 journal bearing

Refer to the standards above, and then replace camshaft and/or
cylinder head.
Camshaft Sprocket Runout
1. Put V-block on precise flat table, and support No. 2 and 4 journals of camshaft.
CAUTION:
Do not support No. 1 journal (on the side of camshaft sprocket) because it has a different diameter
from the other three locations.
2. Measure the camshaft sprocket runout with a dial indicator. (Total indicator reading)

If it exceeds the limit, replace camshaft sprocket.
Valve Lifter
Check if surface of valve lifter has any wear or cracks.

If anything above is found, replace valve lifter. Refer to EM-154,
"Available Valve Lifter" .

CRANKSHAFT PIN JOURNAL DIAMETER

Measure the outer diameter of crankshaft pin journal with a
micrometer.

If out of the standard, measure the connecting rod bearing oil
clearance. Then use undersize bearing. Refer to EM-147,
"CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" .
CRANKSHAFT OUT-OF-ROUND AND TAPER

Measure the dimensions at four different points as shown in the
figure on each main journal and pin journal with a micrometer.

Out-of-round is indicated by the difference in the dimensions
between “X” and “Y” at “A” and “B”.

Taper is indicated by the difference in the dimensions between
“A” and “B” at “X” and “Y”.

If the measured value exceeds the limit, correct or replace crankshaft.

If corrected, measure the bearing oil clearance of the corrected main journal and/or pin journal. Then
select the main bearing and/or connecting rod bearing. Refer to EM-148, "
MAIN BEARING OIL CLEAR-
ANCE" and/or EM-147, "CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" .
CRANKSHAFT RUNOUT

Place V-block on precise flat table, and support the journals on
the both end of crankshaft.

Place a dial indicator straight up on the No. 3 journal.

While rotating crankshaft, read the movement of the pointer on a
dial indicator. (Total indicator reading)

If it exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft.
CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method by Calculation

Install connecting rod bearings to connecting rod and connect-
ing rod cap, and tighten connecting rod bolts to the specified
torque. Refer to EM-129, "
ASSEMBLY" for the tightening proce-
dure.

Measure the inner diameter of connecting rod bearing with an
inside micrometer.
(Oil clearance) = (Connecting rod bearing inner diameter) – (Crank-
shaft pin journal diameter) Standard : 51.956 - 51.974 mm (2.0455 - 2.0462 in) dia.

Limit:
Out-of-round (Difference between “X” and “Y”) : 0.002 mm (0.0001 in)

3. With hexagonal part of camshaft locked with wrench, loosen
bolts securing camshaft sprocket to remove camshaft sprocket.
CAUTION:

Do not loosen mounting bolts with securing anything
other than the camshaft hexagonal portion or with ten-
sioning the timing chain.

After removing timing chain, do not turn crankshaft and
camshaft separately, or valves will strike the piston head.
4. Remove intake and exhaust camshaft brackets.

Mark camshafts, camshaft brackets and bolts so placed in the same position and direction for installa-
tion.

Equally loosen camshaft brackets and bolts in several steps in
reverse order as shown in the figure.

Lightly tapping with plastic hammer, remove camshaft bracket
(No. 1) and camshaft bracket (No. 6).
NOTE:
The bottom surface of each bracket will be stuck to cylinder
head because of liquid gasket.
5. Remove camshaft.
6. Remove adjusting shim and valve lifter if necessary.

Identify installation positions, and store them without mixing them up.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Camshaft Runout
1. Put V-block on precise flat table, and support No. 2 and 5 journal of camshaft.
CAUTION:
Do not support journal No. 1 (on the side of camshaft
sprocket) because it has a different diameter from the other
four locations.
2. Set dial indicator vertically to No. 3 journal.
3. Turn camshaft to one direction with hands, and measure the camshaft runout on dial indicator. (Total indicator reading)
4. If it exceeds the limit, replace camshaft.

cracks.

If anything above is found, replace valve lifter.

When replacing adjusting shim, refer to EM-224, "ADJUST-
MENT" .
