Page 28 of 1575
6.Remove the auto tensioner set- pin.
7. Check the tension of the timing belt.
(1) Turn the crankshaft 2 rev. clockwise which makes the No.1 cylinder piston position at TDC.
After 5minutes, measure the length of the projected rod.
Specification
5 ~ 7mm(0.1969 ~ 0.2756in.)
(2)Ensure the locations of the timing marks for each sprocket.
8. Install the engine support bracket(A).
Tightening torque
58.8 ~ 68.6Nm(6.0 ~ 7.0kgf.m, 43.4 ~ 50.6lb- ft)
9.Install the timing belt lower cover(A).
Tightening torque
9.8 ~ 11.8Nm(1.0 ~ 1.2kgf.m, 7.8 ~ 8.7lb - ft)

23.Remove the CKP sensor connector bracket(A).
24.Remove the cylinder head assembly.
(1) Remove the bolts in 2~3 steps as following orders.
If the bolts are not removed as the order, the deformation of the head assembly can be occurred.
(2) Put the cylinder head assembly on a wooden block after removal from the cylinder block.
Ensure that the surface between the cylinder head and the block is not damaged.
REPLACEMENT
Valve guide
1. Using the SST(09221- 3F100A), remove the valve guide from the downside of the cylinder head assembly.
Page 42 of 1575
2.Reprocess the valve guide hole for the oversized valve guide newly installed.
3. Using the SST(09221- 3F100A/B), insert the valve guide in the upside of the cylinder head assembly. Be aware of
the difference in length between the intake and the exhaust valve guides.
Specification
Intake valve guide: 45.8 ~ 46.2mm(1.8031 ~ 1.8189in.)
Exhaust valve guide: 46.8 ~ 47.2mm(1.8425 ~ 1.8583in.)
4.After installing the valve guides, insert new valves and check the clearance between the valve stems and the valve
guides.
5. After replacing the valve guides, check if they are properly installed with the valve seats. Reprocess valve seats if
necessary.
INSTALLATION
a.Thoroughly clean all parts to be assembled.
b. Always use a new head and manifold gasket.
c. The cylinder head gasket is a metal gasket. Take care not to bend it.
d. Rotate the crankshaft to set the No.1 cylinder piston at TDC.
1. After putting the cylinder head gasket on the cylinder block, install the cylinder head.

camshaft. Ensure that the pin will not be installed in the hole for oil feeding.
Tightening torque
66.7~78.5Nm(6.8~8.0kgf.m, 49.2~57.9lb - ft)
After tightening the CVVT bolts, rotate the CVVT assembly housing counterclockwise by hand to seat the lock
pin in the CVVT assembly in good position.
Fix the hexagonal part of the camshaft in a vice when tightening the CVVT bolts. Do not fix the CVVT housing
or sprocket in a vice.
4. Install the camshaft in the cylinder head assembly.
(1) Align the timing mark of the camshaft timinig chain.
LH camshaft chain timing mark
RH camshaft chain timing mark
Both timing marks should face upward in reassemby.
5. Install the timing chain tensioner.
(1) Insert the set pin by pressing the timing chain tensioner.
(2) Install the chain tensioner(A) in the cylinder head assembly.
Page 45 of 1575
6.Install the camshaft bearing caps.
Tightening torque
Bearing cap bolt(A: 6×38) - 10.8~12.7Nm(1.1~1.3kgf.m, 8.0~9.4lb- ft)
Bearing cap bolt(B: 8×38) - 20.6~22.5Nm(2.1~2.6kgf.m, 15.2~18.8lb - ft)
When installing the bearing caps, check the marks on them as shown below and install them in its proper
position.
A(LH/RH HEAD): L(LH), R(RH)
B(Intake/Exhaust): I(Intake), E(Exhaust)
C(Cap no.): 1,2,3
When installing the bearing caps, turn the crankshaft to place a piston in the middle of the block because
linterference between valves and pistons can occur.

(2)Connect the breather hose(B) from air cleaner hose.
(3) Connect the MAF connector(A).
26. Install the engine cover.
27. Refill engine coolant.
DISASSEMBLY
Identify MLA(Mechanical Lash Adjuster), valves and valve springs as they are removed so that each item can be
reinstalled in its original position.
1. Remove MLA(Mechanical Lash Adjuster)s(A).
2.Remove valves.
(1) Using SST(09222- 3K000, 09222 - 3C300), compress the valve spring and remove retainer lock.
(2)Remove the spring retainer.
(3) Remove the valve spring.
(4) Remove the valve.
Page 53 of 1575
(5)Using SST(09222- 29000), remove the valve stem seal.
Do not reuse the removed valve stem seals.
3. Remove OCV(Oil Control Valve)(A).
INSPECTION
CYLINDER HEAD
1. Inspect for flatness.
Using a precision straight edge and feeler gauge, measure the surface contacting cylinder block and the manifolds
for warpage.
Flatness of cylinder head gasket surface
Standard : 0.03mm(0.0012in.) or less
Flatness of manifold gasket surface
Standard : 0.15mm(0.0059in.) or less
2.Inspect for cracks.
