INSTALLATION
CAUTION:
Do not reuse O-rings or washers.
1. Install oil filter (1) for intake and exhaust valve timing control
solenoid valves.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse washers.
NOTE:
The intake side is shown as an example.
• The oil filter (1) and washer (2) are assembled to the plug (3),and then install them in to the cylinder head. Refer to EM-60,
"Exploded View".
2. Install intake and exhaust valve timing control solenoid valves. • Insert it straight into the cylinder head.
• Tighten bolts.CAUTION:
Do not reuse O-rings.
3. Install valve lifters. • If they are reused, install them in the original positions.
4. Put a matching mark for positioning the cams haft (INT) and the camshaft sprocket (INT):
NOTE:
This helps prevent the knock pin from engaging with the incorrect pin hole after installing the camshaft
(INT) and the camshaft sprocket (INT).
a. Put the matching marks (A) on a line extending from the knock pin position of camshaft (INT) (1) front surface.
• Put the marks on the visible position with the camshaft
sprocket installed as shown.
b. Put the matching marks on a line extending from the knock pin hole (B) position of camshaft sprocket (INT) (2) as shown.
• Put the marks on the visible position with it installed to thecamshaft.
5. Put a matching mark for positioning the camshaft (EXH) and the camshaft sprocket (EXH): NOTE:
This helps prevent the knock pin from engaging with the incorrect pin hole after installing the camshaft
(INT) and the camshaft sprocket (EXH).

13. Pull out the stopper pin of chain tensioner.
14. Install front cover.
15. Return the camshaft sprocket (INT) in the most retarded position:
a. Remove the stopper pin (A) from the camshaft sprocket (INT).
b. Turn the crankshaft pulley (1) slowly clockwise (A) and return the camshaft sprocket (INT) to the most retarded angle position.
• When first turning the crankshaft, the camshaft sprocket (INT)
will turn. Once it is turned more, and the vane (camshaft) also
turns, then it has reached t he most retarded angle position.
• The most retarded angle position can be checked by seeing if the stopper pin groove (A) is shifted clockwise.
• After spinning the crankshaft slightly in the counterclockwise direction, you can check the lock pin has joined by seeing if
the vane (camshaft) and the sprocket move together.
16. Install the camshaft position sensor (PHASE) to the rear end of cylinder head. • Tighten bolts with it completely inserted.
17. Check and adjust valve clearance. Refer to EM-10, "
Inspection and Adjustment".
18. Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of removal.

• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels, including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-11, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leaks.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leaks
at connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, che ck again for fuel leaks 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 leak s 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 engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec- ified level, if necessary.
• Summary of the inspection items:

INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Oil Filter
• Check that there is no foreign material on the oil filter (1) and check it for clogging.
• Check the oil filter for damage.
• If there is some damage, replace the oil filter, the plug, and the washer as a set.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse the washer.
Camshaft Runout
1. Put V-block on a precise flat table, and support No. 2 and 5 jour- nals of camshaft.
CAUTION:
Do not support No. 1 journal (on the side of camshaft
sprocket) because it has a differe nt diameter from the other
four locations.
2. Set a suitable tool vertically to No. 3 journal.
3. Turn camshaft to one direction, and measure the camshaft runout using suitable tool. (Total indicator reading)

SULT and it is directed according to insp ection procedure of EC section. Refer to EC-168, "
Diagnosis
Procedure" (P0011) or EC-172, "Diagnosis Procedure" (P0014).
• Check when engine is cold so as to pr event burns from the splashing engine oil.
NOTE:
This section provides the inspection method of oil passage of cam sprocket on the intake side. For oil passage
on the exhaust side, the inspection proc edure must be changed as instructed below:
1. Check engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "

· Step 3 : Remove exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to EM-60, "Exploded View".
· Step 4 : Crank engine, and then check that engine oil comes out from exhaust valve timing control solenoid
valve hole (A). End crank after checking.
·Step 5 Perform the following inspection if engine oil does not come out from exhaust valve timing control
solenoid valve oil hole of the cylinder head.
• Remove oil filter, and then clean it. Refer to
EM-60, "
Exploded View".
• Clean oil groove between oil strainer and exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to
