11. 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-53, "
Removal and Installation".
2. Remove the valve lifters at the locations 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-108, "
Standard
and Limit".
5. Install the selected valve lifter.

1. Make sure the crankshaft key and camshaft dowel pin RH bank
and camshaft dowel pin LH bank are facing in the direction
shown.
2. Install the camshaft sprockets. • Install the camshaft sprocket INT (VTC) (A) and camshaftsprockets EXH (B) by selectively 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.
• Lock the hexagonal part of the camshaft in the same way as for removal, and tighten the bolts.
3. Install the crankshaft sprockets for both banks. • Install LH bank crankshaft sprocket (B) and RH bank crank-shaft sprocket (C) so that their flange side (A) (the larger diam-
eter side without teeth) faces in the direction shown.
NOTE:
The same parts are used but facing directions are different.
4. Install the timing chains and associated parts. • Align the alignment mark on each sprocket and the timing chain for installation.CAUTION:
• Before installing timing chain tensioner, it is possible to change the position of alignment mark
on timing chain and each sprocket . After the alignment marks are aligned, keep them aligned
by holding them by hand.
• Install the slack guides and tension guides onto the correct side by checking the identification mark on
the surface.
• Install the chain tensioner with t he plunger locked in with the stopper pin.
CAUTION:
• Before and after the installation of the timing chain tensioner, make sure that the alignment
mark on the timing chain is not out of alignment.
• After installing the timing chain tensioner, remove the stopp er pin to release the tensioner.
Make sure the tensioner is released.
• To avoid chain-link skipping of the timing chain, do not move crankshaft or camshafts until the
front cover is installed.
5. In the same way as for the RH bank, install the timing chain and associated parts on the LH bank.
6. Install the oil pump.

• Insert the oil pump drive spacer according to the directions of the crankshaft key and the two flat surfaces of the oil pump
inner rotor.
• If the positional relationship does not allow the insertion, rotate the oil pump inner rotor to allow the oil pump drive spacer to
be inserted.
8. Install the front oil seal using suitable tool. CAUTION:
Do not scratch or make burrs on the circumference of the
oil seal.
9. Install the chain tensioner cover. • Apply liquid gasket as shown.

(such as paint) on the crankshaft pulley.
14. Rotate the crankshaft pulley in normal direction (clockwise when viewed from engine front) to check for parts interference.
15. Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse of order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Before starting the engine, check oil/fluid levels in cluding engine coolant and engine oil. If the levels are
lower than required quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-13, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to the fuel piping, check for fuel leakage at the connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, che ck again for fuel leakage at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration. NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal and installation, slack in the guide
may generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop
after hydraulic pressure rises.
• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids including engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down the engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to
specified level if necessary.
• Summary of the inspection items:
*Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.
