INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Cylinder Head Bolt s Outer Diameter
• Cylinder head bolts are tightened by plastic zone tightening
method. Whenever the size difference between “d1” and “d2”
exceeds the limit, replace them with a new one.
• If reduction of outer diameter appear s in a position other than “d2”,
use it as “d2” point.
Cylinder Head Distortion
NOTE:
When performing this inspection, cylinder block distortion should be also checking. Refer to EM-102, "
Inspec-
tion".
1. Wipe off engine oil and remove water scale (like deposit), gasket, sealant, carbon, etc. using scraper. CAUTION:
Use utmost care not to allow gasket debris to enter passages for engine oil or engine coolant.

INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY
VALVE DIMENSIONS
• Check the dimensions of each valv e. For the dimensions, refer to EM-119, "Cylinder head".
• If dimensions are out of the standard, replace valv e and check valve seat contact. Refer to “VALVE SEAT
CONTACT”.
VALVE GUIDE CLEARANCE
Valve Stem Diameter• Measure the diameter of valve stem using suitable tool (A).
Valve Guide Inner Diameter• Measure the inner diameter of valve guide using suitable tool (A).
Valve Guide Clearance• (Valve guide clearance) = (Valve guide inner diameter) – (Valve stem diameter)
• If the calculated value exceeds the limit, replace valve and/or valve guide. Refer to EM-78, "
Disassembly
and Assembly".
VALVE GUIDE REPLACEMENT
When valve guide is removed, replace with oversized [0.2 mm (0.008 in)] valve guide.
1. To remove valve guide, heat cylinder head to 110 to 130°C (230
to 266 °F) by soaking in heated oil.

VALVE SEAT CONTACT
• After confirming that the dimensions of valve guides
and valves are within the specifications, perform this
procedure.
• Apply prussian blue (or white lead) onto contacting surfac e of 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 valve fitting and check again. If the contacting surface still has “NG” conditions (B) even after the recheck,
replace valve seat. Refer to EM-78, "
Disassembly and Assembly".
VALVE SEAT REPLACEMENT
When valve seat is removed, replace with oversized [0.5 mm (0.020 in)] valve seat.
1. Bore out old seat until it collapses. Boring shoul d not continue beyond the bottom face of the seat recess
in cylinder head. Set the machine depth stop to ensure this.
CAUTION:
Prevent scoring cylinder head by excessive boring.
2. Ream 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.
3. Heat cylinder head to 110 to 130 °C (230 to 266 °F) by soaking in
heated oil.
4. Provide valve seats cooled well with dry ice. Press-fit valve seats into cylinder head. WARNING:
Cylinder head contains heat; when working, wear protective equipment to avoid getting burned.
CAUTION:
Avoid directly touching cold valve seats.

CAUTION:
When using a valve seat cutter, firmly grip the cutter handle
with both hands. Then, pr ess the contacting surface evenly
around the valve seat to cut in a single attempt. Improper
pressure or cutting several times may result in wavy valve
seat.
6. Using compound, grind to adjust valve fitting.
7. Check again for normal contact. Refer to "VALVE SEAT CONTACT".
VALVE SPRING SQUARENESS
• Set a tri-square (A) along the side of valve spring and rotate spring. Measure the maximum clearance between the top of spring and
tri-square.
• If it exceeds the limit, replace valve spring.
VALVE SPRING DIMENSIONS AND VALVE SPRING PRESSURE LOAD
• Check valve spring pressure with valve spring seat installed at the specified spring height.
CAUTION:
Do not remove valve spring seat from valve spring.
• If the installation load or load with valve open is out of the stan- dard, replace valve spring (with valve spring seat).
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels, incl uding 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 are no l eaks 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.

INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
• Do not allow engine oil to get on engine mounting insulator. Be careful not to damage engine mount-
ing insulator.
• Check that each mounting insulator is seated properly, and tighten nuts and bolts.
• When installation directions are specified, instal l parts according to the direction marks on them,
referring to the figure of components. Refer to EM-86, "
Exploded View".
• Inspect vehicle alignment and adjust (If necessary). Refer to FSU-8, "
Adjustment".

The following procedures explain how to disassemble the engine with the engine stand fastened to the bell
housing. Some steps may be different if using a different type of engine stand.
1. Install engine to engine stand:
a. On (M/T models), remove flywheel.
• Secure flywheel using suitable tool and remove bolts.
CAUTION:
• Do not disassemble flywheel.
• Do not place flywheel with signal plate facing down.
• When handling signal plate, take care not to damage or scratch it.
• Handle signal plate in a manner that prevents it from becoming magnetized.
b. On (CVT models), remove driveplate. • Secure driveplate using suitable tool and remove bolts.
CAUTION:
• Do not disassemble flywheel.
• Do not place flywheel or drive plat e with signal plate facing down.
• When handling signal plate, take care not to damage or scratch it.
• Handle signal plate in a manner that prevents it from becoming magnetized.
c. Lift the engine with a hoist to install it onto a widely used engine stand. CAUTION:
• Use the engine stand that has a load capacity approximately 150 kg (331 lb) or more large
enough for supporting the engine weight.
• If the load capacity of stand is not adequate, remove the following parts beforehand to reduce the poten- tial risk of overturning stand.
- Intake manifold. Refer to EM-28, "
Exploded View".
- Exhaust manifold. Refer to EM-31, "
Removal and Installation".
- Rocker cover. Refer to EM-48, "
Exploded View".
CAUTION:
Before removing the hanging chains, check the engine stand is stable and there is no risk of over-
turning.
NOTE:
The figure shows an example of widely used engine stand (A)
that can support the mating surface of transaxle with flywheel
removed.
2. Drain engine oil. Refer to LU-8, "
Draining".
