INTAKE VALVE TIMING CONTROL
DescriptionINFOID:0000000003771312
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
*: This signal is sent to the ECM through CAN communication line
This mechanism hydraulically controls cam phases c
ontinuously with the fixed operating angle of the intake
valve.
The ECM receives signals such as crankshaft posit ion, camshaft position, engine speed, and engine coolant
temperature. Then, the ECM sends ON /OFF pulse duty signals to the intake valve timing (IVT) control sole-
noid valve depending on driving status. This makes it po ssible to control the shut/open timing of the intake
valve to increase engine torque in low/mid speed range and output in high-speed range.

Do not operate fuel pump when there is no fuel in lines.
 Tighten fuel hose clamps to the specified torque.
 Do not depress accelerator pedal when starting.
 Immediately after starting, do not rev up engine unnecessar-
ily.
 Do not rev up engine just prior to shutdown.
 When installing C.B. ham radio or a mobile phone, be sure to
observe the following as it may adversely affect electronic
control systems depending on installation location.
- Keep the antenna as far as possi ble from the electronic con-
trol units.
- Keep the antenna feeder line more than 20 cm (8 in) away
from the harness of electronic controls.
Do not let them run para llel for a long distance.
- Adjust the antenna and feeder line so that the standing-wave
radio can be kept smaller.
- Be sure to ground the radio to vehicle body.

PRECAUTIONS
5. When the repair work is completed, return the ignition switch to the ″LOCK ″ position before connecting
the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)
6. Perform a self-diagnosis check of a ll control units using CONSULT-III.
Precaution for Drain Engine CoolantINFOID:0000000005885850
Drain engine coolant when engine is cooled.
Precaution for Disconnecting Fuel PipingINFOID:0000000005885851
• Before starting work, make sure no fire or spark producing items are in the work area.
• Release fuel pressure before disconnecting and disassembly.
• After disconnecting pipes, plug openings to stop fuel leakage.
Precaution for Removal and DisassemblyINFOID:0000000005885852
• When instructed to use special service tools, use the s pecified tools. Always be careful to work safely, avoid
forceful or uninstructed operations.
• Exercise maximum care to avoid damage to mating or sliding surfaces.
• Cover openings of engine system with tape or the equivalent, if necessary, to seal out foreign materials.
• Mark and arrange disassembly parts in an organi zed way for easy troubleshooting and assembly.
• When loosening nuts and bolts, as a basic rule, start with the one furthest outside, then the one diagonally opposite, and so on. If the order of loosening is specified, do exactly as specified. Power tools may be used
where noted in the step.
Precaution for Inspection, Repair and ReplacementINFOID:0000000005885853
Before repairing or replacing, thoroughly inspect parts. Inspect new replacement parts in the same way, and
replace if necessary.
Precaution for Assembly and InstallationINFOID:0000000005885854
• Use torque wrench to tighten bolts or nuts to specification.
• When tightening nuts and bolts, as a basic rule, equally tighten in several different steps starting with theones in center, then ones on inside and outside diagonally in this order. If the order of tightening is specified,
do exactly as specified.
• Replace with new gasket, packing, oil seal or O-ring.
• Thoroughly wash, clean, and air-blow each part. Carefully check engine oil or engine coolant passages for any restriction and blockage.
• Avoid damaging sliding or mating surfaces. Completely remove foreign materials such as cloth lint or dust. Before assembly, oil sliding surfaces well.
• Release air within route when refilling after draining engine coolant.
• Before starting engine, apply fuel pressure to fuel lines with turning ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). Then make sure that there are no leaks at fuel line connections.
• After repairing, start engine and increase engine s peed to check engine coolant, fuel, oil, and exhaust sys-
tems for leakage.
Parts Requiring Angular TighteningINFOID:0000000005885855
• For final tightening of the following engine parts use Tool:
- Cylinder head bolts
- Main bearing cap bolts
- Connecting rod cap bolts
- Crankshaft pulley bolt (No angle wrench is required as the bolt flange is provided with notches for angle tightening)
• Do not use a torque value for final tightening.
• The torque value for these parts are for a preliminary step.
• Ensure thread and seat surfaces are clean and lightly coated with engine oil. Tool number : KV10112100 (BT-8653-A)

EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND THREE WAY CATALYST
• Install new exhaust manifold gasket with the top of the triangularup mark on it facing up and its coated face (gray side) toward the
exhaust manifold side.
• Tighten the exhaust manifold nuts LH and RH in the numerical order shown. Then recheck the torque of the nuts.
- A: Exhaust manifold (LH)
- B: Exhaust manifold (RH)
- : Front
• Before installing new air fuel ration A/F sensors, clean the exhaust system threads using suitable tool and
apply anti-seize lubricant.
CAUTION:
• Do not over tighten the air fuel ratio A/F se nsors. Doing so may cause damage to the sensor,
resulting in the MIL coming on.

e. After tightening, re-tighten to the specified torque. CAUTION:
Be sure to wipe off any excessive liquid gasket leaking onto
surface mating with oil pan.
11. Install the Intake valve timing control solenoid valve cover (RH) (A) and Intake valve timing control solenoid valve cover (LH) (B)
as follows:
• Cross mark that can not be seen after assembly (C)
a. Apply liquid gasket (D) as shown. Use Genuine RTV Silicone Seal ant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-15, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants".
CAUTION:
The start and end of the appl ication of the liquid gasket
should be crossed at a position (C) that cannot be seen
after attaching the chain case cover.
b. Install the bolts and tighten them to specification in the numeri- cal order shown.
• A: Intake valve timing control solenoid valve cover (RH)
• B: Intake valve timing control solenoid valve cover (LH)
12. Install the crankshaft pulley. • Install the key of the crankshaft.
• Insert the pulley by lightly tapping it.
CAUTION:
Do not tap pulley on the side surface where th e belt is installed (outer circumference).
13. Tighten the crankshaft pulley bolt. • Lock the crankshaft using suitable tool, then tighten the bolt.
• Perform the following steps for angular tightening:
a. Apply engine oil onto the threaded parts of the bolt and seating area.
