1. Put V block on precise flat work bench, and support No. 1 andNo. 5 journals of the camshaft.
2. Set dial indicator vertically to No. 3 journal.
3. Turn the camshaft to one direction, and measure the camshaft runout on dial indicator (total indicator reading).
• If measurement exceeds specif ication, replace the camshaft.
Camshaft Cam Height
• Measure the camshaft cam height.
• If measurement is not within the specifications, replace the cam-
shaft.
Camshaft Journal Clearance
Camshaft Journal Diameter• Measure the diameter of the camshaft journal.
Camshaft Bracket Inner Diameter• Tighten the camshaft bracket bolt to the specified torque.
• Measure the inner diameter of the camshaft bracket.
Calculation of Camshaft Journal Clearance
(Journal clearance) = (camshaft bracket inner diameter) – (camshaft
journal diameter)
• If measurement is not within spec ification, replace either or both
camshaft and cylinder head.
NOTE:
The inner diameter of the camshaft bracket is manuf actured together with the cylinder head. Replace the
whole cylinder head as an assembly.

• A: LH bank shown
a. Install the camshaft sprockets aligning them with the matching marks painted on the timing chain (B) and the camshaft sprock-
ets (C) before removal. Align the camshaft sprocket key groove
with the dowel pin on the camshaft front edge at the same time.
Then temporarily tighten camshaft sprocket bolts.
• Install the intake camshaft sprocket (VTC) (A) and exhaust
camshaft sprockets (B) by select ively using the groove of the
dowel pin according to the bank. (Common part used for both
exhaust banks.)
NOTE:
Use the groove marked "R" for RH bank and "L" for LH bank.
b. Lock the hexagonal part of the camshaft in the same way as for removal, and tighten the camshaft sprocket bolts.
c. Check again that the timing alignment mark on the timing chain and on each sprocket are aligned.
6. Install the chain tensioner using the following procedure: NOTE:
LH is shown.

• Loosen the slack guide side timing chain by rotating the cam- shaft hexagonal part if mounting space is small.
b. Remove the stopper pin and release the plunger, and then apply tension to the timing chain.
c. Install the chain tensioner cover onto the front cover. • Apply liquid gasket as shown.
Use Genuine RTV Silicone Seal ant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-45, "
Recommended Chemical Product and Sealant".
7. Check and adjust valve clearances. Refer to EM-56, "

CAUTION:
• Perform this inspection only when DTC P0011 is de tected in self-diagnostic results of CONSULT II
and it is directed according to inspect ion procedure of EC section. Refer to EC-159, "

2. Perform the following procedure so as to prevent the engine from being unintentionally started while
checking.
a. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-80, "
Fuel Pressure Check".
b. Disconnect ignition coil and injector harness connectors if practical.
3. Remove IVT control solenoid valve.
4. Crank engine, and then make sure that engine oil comes out from IVT control cover oil hole. End cranking
after checking.
WARNING:
Be careful not to touch rotating parts (drive be lts, idler pulley, and crankshaft pulley, etc.).
CAUTION:
• Engine oil may squirt from IVT control soleno id valve installation hole during cranking. Use a
shop cloth to prevent engine oil from splashin g on worker, engine components and vehicle.
• Do not allow engine oil to get on rubber compon ents such as drive belts or engine mount insula-
tors. Immediately wipe off any splashed engine oil.
5. Clean oil groove between oil strainer and IVT control solenoid valve if engine oil does not come out from IVT control valve cover oil hole. Refer to LU-7, "
Schematic".
6. Remove components between IVT control solenoid va lve and camshaft sprocket (INT), and then check
each oil groove for clogging.
• Clean oil groove if necessary.
7. After inspection, installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of removal.

INSPECTION
NOTE:
Perform the following inspection after removal, installation or replacement of camshaft or valve-related parts,
or if there are unusual engine conditions due to changes in valve clearance over time (starting, idling, and/or
noise).
1. Warm up the engine. Then stop the engine.
2. Remove the engine cover and. Refer to EM-12, "
Removal and Installation".
3. Remove the battery cover. Refer to SC-8, "
Removal and Installation".
4. Remove the air cleaner and air duct assembly EM-15, "
Removal and Installation".
5. Remove the RH bank and LH bank rocker covers using power tool. Refer to EM-35, "
Removal and Instal-
lation".
6. Turn the crankshaft pulley in the normal direction (clockwise when viewed from engine front) to align TDC identification notch
(without paint mark) with timing indicator.

7. At this time, make sure both the intake and exhaust cam noses
of No. 1 cylinder (top front on LH bank) face outside.
• If they do not face outside, turn crankshaft pulley once more.
8. Measure valve clearances at the locations marked “ ×” as shown
in the table below (locations indicated with black arrow).
• ⇐ : Engine front
• ⇐ (black): Measurable at No.1 cylinder compression top dead
center
• ⇐ (white): Measurable at No. 3 cylinder compression top dead
center
•A: RH
•B: LH
• C: Exhaust
• D: Intake
NOTE:
Firing order 1-8-7-3-6-5-4-2
• No. 1 cylinder compression TDC
• Measure valve clearance using suitable tool. CAUTION:
If the inspection was carried out with a cold engine, make
sure the values with a fully warmed up engine are still
within specifications.
9. Turn the crankshaft pulley clockwise 270 ° from the position of No. 1 cylinder compression TDC to obtain
No. 3 cylinder compression TDC.

11. Turn the crankshaft pulley clockwise 90
° from the position of No.
3 cylinder compression TDC (clockwise by 360 ° from the posi-
tion of No. 1 cylinder compression TDC) to measure the intake
and exhaust valve clearances of No. 6 cylinder and the exhaust
valve clearance of No. 2 cylinder.
12. If out of specifications, adjust as necessary.
ADJUSTMENT
NOTE:
• Perform adjustment depending on the selected head thickness of the valve lifter.
• The specified valve lifter thickness is the dimension at normal temperatures. Ignore dimensional differences
caused by temperature. Us e the specifications for hot engine condition to adjust.
1. Remove the camshaft. Refer to EM-46, "
Removal and Installation".
2. Remove the valve lifters at the loca tions that are out of specification.
3. Measure the center thickness of the removed valve lifters using suitable tool.
4. Use the equation below to calculate the valve lifter thickness for replacement.
• Valve lifter thickness calculation:
Thickness of replacement valve lifter = t1+ (C1 - C2)
t1 = Thickness of removed valve lifter
C1 = Measured valve clearance
C2= Standard valve clearance:
• Thickness of a new valve lifter can be identified by stamp marks on the reverse side (inside the cylinder).
Stamp mark N788 indicates 7.88 mm (0.3102 in) in thickness.
• Available thickness of valve lifter: 25 sizes with range 7.88 to 8.36 mm (0.3102 to 0.3291 in) in steps of 0.02 mm (0.0008 in)
(when manufactured at factory). Refer to EM-103, "
Standard
and Limit".
5. Install the selected valve lifter.
