c. Remove the bolts and the chain tensioner (RH) (A).NOTE:
If it is difficult to push plunger on chain tensioner (RH) (A),
remove the plunger under extended condition.
14. Loosen camshaft sprocket bolts as shown and remove camshaft sprockets.
CAUTION:
To avoid interference between valves and pistons, do not
turn crankshaft or camshaft with timing chain discon-
nected.
15. Remove the RH (A) front cover bolts and LH (B) front cover bolts.
16. Remove RH (A) camshaft bracket bolts and LH (C) camshaft bracket bolts in the reverse of order shown to remove camshaft
brackets.
• Remove No. 1 camshaft bracket.NOTE:
The bottom and front surface of bracket will be stuck because
of liquid gasket.
• : Engine front
• B: Exhaust side
• D: Intake side

5. Press the valve guide from the camshaft side to the dimensions
as shown.
CAUTION:
Cylinder head contains heat . When working, wear protec-
tive equipment to avo id getting burned.
6. Ream the cylinder head valve guide using suitable tool.
VALVE SEAT CONTACT
• After confirming that the dimensions of the valve guides and valves are within specifications, perform this procedure.
• Apply prussian blue (or white lead) onto the contacting surface of the valve seat to check the condition of the valve contact on the
surface.
• Check if the contact area band is continuous all around the circum- ference.
• If not, grind to adjust the valve fi t and check again. If the contacting
surface still has NG conditions even after the re-check, replace the
valve seat.
VALVE SEAT REPLACEMENT
When the valve seat is removed, replace it with oversized (0.5 mm, 0.020 in) valve seat.
1. Bore out the old seat until it collapses. Boring should not continue beyond the bottom face of the seat recess in the cylinder head. Set the machine depth stop to ensure this.
2. Ream the cylinder head recess diameter for service valve seat.
• Be sure to ream in circles concentric to the valve guide center.
• This will enable valve seat to fit correctly.

HOW TO SELECT PISTON AND BEARING
How to Select Piston and BearingINFOID:0000000005885904
DESCRIPTION
*For the service parts, the grade for fitting cannot be selected between a piston pin and a connecting rod.
(Only 0 grade is available.) The information at the sh
ipment from the plant is described as a reference.
• The identification grade stamped on each part is the grade for the dimension measured in new condition.
This grade cannot apply to reused parts.
• For reused or repaired parts, measure the dimens ion accurately. Determine the grade by comparing the
measurement with the values of each selection table.
• For details of the measurement method of each part , the reuse standards, and the selection method of the
selective fitting parts, follow the applicable procedures.
HOW TO SELECT PISTON
Piston Selective Fitting When New Cylinder Block is Used:
• Check the cylinder bore grade on the bottom face of the cylinder
block, and select the piston of the same grade.

1. CHECK FUSES AND FUSIBLE LINK
Check that the following fuses and fusible link are not blown.
Is the fuse blown?
YES >> Replace the blown fuse or fusible link after repairing the affected circuit.
NO >> GO TO 2
2. CHECK POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect BCM.
3. Check voltage between BCM harness connector and ground.
Is the measurement value normal?
YES >> GO TO 3
NO >> Repair or replace harness.
3. CHECK GROUND CIRCUIT
Check continuity between BCM harness connector and ground.
Does continuity exist?
YES >> Inspection End.
