O• Handle O-rings with bare hands only. Do not wear gloves.
• Do not clean O-rings with solvent.
• Make sure that O-ring and its mating part are free of foreign material.
• Be careful not to scratch O- rings during installation.
• Do not twist or stretch the O-ring. If the O-ring was stretched while it is attached, do not insert it
into the fuel tube immediately.
2. Install the fuel injector (5) into the fuel tube (1) with the following procedure:
(2): O-ring (black)
(4): O-ring (green)
a. Insert the new clip (3) into the clip mounting groove (F) on fuel injector (5).
• Insert the clip (3) so that prot rusion (E) of fuel injector (5)
matches cutout (C) of the clip (3).
CAUTION:
• Do not reuse clip (3), replace it with a new one.
• Be careful to keep clip from interfering with O-ring. If
interference occurs, replace O-ring.
b. Insert fuel injector (5) into fuel tube (1) with clip (3) attached. • Insert fuel injector (5) so that protrusion (A) of fuel tube (1)
matches cut-out (B) of the clip (3).
• Check that fuel tube flange (G) is securely fixed in flange
groove (D) on the clip (3).
c. Check that installation is comple te by checking that fuel injector
(5) does not rotate or come off.
3. Install fuel tube and fuel injector assembly with the following procedure.
a. Insert the tip of each fuel injector into intake manifold.
b. Tighten the bolts to specification in the numerical order as shown.
CAUTION:
After properly connecting fu el tube assembly to injector
and fuel hose, check co nnection for fuel leaks.
4. Connect the fuel hose quick connector.
a. Make sure no foreign substances are deposited in and around the fuel tube and quick connector, and there is no damage to them.
b. Thinly apply new engine oil around the fuel tube tip end. Fuel tube side : Black
Nozzle side : Green

c. Align center to insert quick connector straight onto fuel tube.
d. Insert fuel tube into quick connector (1) until the top spool (B) on fuel tubes is inserted completely and the second level spool (C)
is positioned slightly below the quick connector bottom end.
CAUTION:
• Hold at position (A) as show n, when inserting the fuel
tube into the quick connector.
• Carefully align to center to avoid inclined insertion to pre-
vent damage to the O-ring inside the quick connector.
• Insert the fuel tube until you hear a “click” sound and
actually feel the engagement.
• To avoid misidentification of engagement with a similar
sound, be sure to perform the next step.
• Do not reuse O-ring.
e. Before clamping the fuel hose with the hose clamp, pull the quick connector hard by hand, holding at the
(A) position, as shown. Make sure it is completely engaged (connected) so that it does not come off of the
fuel tube.
NOTE:
Recommended pulling force is 50 N (5.1 kg, 11.2 lb).
f. Install quick connector cap (1) over fuel hose side (B) and fuel tube side (A).
NOTE:
Direct arrow mark on quick connector cap (1) to fuel hose side.
5. Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Make sure there are no fuel leaks at connections as follows:
1. Apply fuel pressure to fuel lines by turning ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). Then check for fuel leaks at connections.
2. Start the engine and rev it up and check for fuel leaks at connections. • Perform procedures for “Throttle Valve Closed Posi tion Learning” after finishing repairs. Refer to EC-
178, "Work Procedure".
• If electric throttle control actuator is replaced, perform procedures for “Idle Air Volume Learning” after
finishing repairs. Refer to EC-179, "Work Procedure"
.
WARNING:
Do not touch engine immediately after stopping as engine is extremely hot.
NOTE:
Use mirrors for checking on connections out of the direct line of sight.

remove the camshaft brackets and camshafts.
NOTE:
Remove No.1 camshaft bracket by slightly tapping it with a rub-
ber mallet.
13. Remove the valve lifters. NOTE:
Check mounting positions, and set them aside in the order removed.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Oil Filter
• Check that there is no foreign material on the oil filter (1) and check for clogging.
• Check the oil filter for damage.
• If there is damage, replace the oil filter.
Camshaft Runout
1. Put the camshaft on a V-block supporting the No.2 and No.5 journals.
CAUTION:
Do not support the No. 1 journal (on the side of the cam-
shaft sprocket) because it has different diameter from the
other four locations.
2. Set the dial gauge (A) vertically on the No.3 journal.
3. Turn camshaft in one direction by hand, and measure the cam- shaft runout on the dial gauge total indicator reading.
Camshaft Cam Height
1. Measure the camshaft cam height using suitable tool (A).
2. If wear is beyond the limit, replace the camshaft.

WARNING:
Check when engine is cold so as to preven t burns from any splashing engine oil.
CAUTION:
Perform this inspection only when DTC P0011, P0014, P052A, P052B is detected in self-diagnostic
results of CONSULT and it is directed according to inspection procedure of EC section. Refer to EC-
210, "Diagnosis Procedure".
1. Check engine oil level and adjust oil level as necessary. Refer to LU-9, "Inspection"
.
2. Remove the intake valve timing intermediate lock control solenoid valve, intake valve timing control sole- noid valve, and exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to EM-58, "Intake Valve Timing Interme-
diate Lock Control Solenoid Valve, Intake Valve Timing Control Solenoid Valve, and Exhaust Valve Timing
Control Solenoid Valve".
3. Perform the following procedure to prevent the engi ne from being unintentionally started while checking.
a. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-182, "Work Procedure"
.
b. Disconnect injector harness connectors.
4. Crank engine, and then make sure that engine oil comes out of the valve timing control cover oil holes (A). End cranking after
checking.
WARNING:
Be careful not to touch rotating parts (drive belt, crankshaft
pulley, etc.).
CAUTION:
• Engine oil may squirt from intake valve timing intermedi-
ate lock control solenoid valve, intake valve timing control
solenoid valve, exhaust valve timing control solenoid
valve installation holes during cranking. Use a shop cloth
to prevent engine oil from splashing on worker, engine
components and vehicle.
• Do not allow engine oil to get on rubber componen ts such as drive belts or engine mount insula-
tors. Immediately wipe off any splashed engine oil.
5. If engine oil does not come out from valve timing cont rol cover oil holes (A), diagnose problem in lubrica-
tion circuit such as dirty oil groove between oil strainer and intake valve timing intermediate lock control
solenoid valve, intake valve timing control solenoid valve, or exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve.
Refer to LU-7, "Lubrication Circuit"
.
a. Remove components between intake valve timing intermediate lock control solenoid valve, intake valve timing control solenoid valve, exhaust valve timing c ontrol solenoid valve and camshaft sprocket (INT) or
camshaft sprocket (EXH), (if necessary) and then check each oil groove for clogging.
b. Clean oil groove if necessary. Refer to LU-7, "Lubrication Circuit"
.
6. After inspection, install the remaining components in the reverse order of removal.
