LUBRICATION AND SEALING POINTS





REMOVAL SERVICE POINTS



<<A>> CAMSHAFT SPROCKET CAP REMOVAL



Remove the camshaft sprocket cap with a 8-mm hexagonal wrench.

<<B>> CAMSHAFT SPROCKET REMOVAL



1.Hold the hexagon part of the camshaft with a wrench.
2.Loosen the camshaft sprocket mounting bolt and remove the camshaft sprocket.

<<C>> VALVE SPRING RETAINER LOCK REMOVAL


caution When removing valve spring retainer locks, leave the piston of each cylinder in the TDC (Top Dead Centre) position. The valve may fall into the cylinder if the piston is not properly in the TDC position.

Use special tool valve spring compressor (MD998772) to compress the valve spring and then remove the valve spring retainer lock.

INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS



>>A<< EXHAUST VALVE STEM SEAL/INLET VALVE STEM SEAL INSTALLATION



1.Check the valve stem seal colour to identify the inlet side or exhaust side.
2.Apply a small amount of engine oil to the valve stem seal.

3.
caution
  • Do not re-use the valve stem seal.
  • Special tool valve stem seal installer (MB991671) must be used to install the valve stem seal. Improper installation could result in oil leaking past the valve guide.
Use special tool valve stem seal installer (MB991671) to fill a new valve stem seal in the valve guide using the valve stem area as a guide.

>>B<< VALVE SPRING INSTALLATION



Install the valve spring with its identification colour painted end facing the locker arm.

>>C<< VALVE SPRING RETAINER LOCK INSTALLATION



Use special tool valve spring compressor (MD998772) to compress the valve spring in the same manner as removal.

>>D<< ROCKER ARM LASH ADJUSTER INSTALLATION


caution If the rocker arm lash adjuster is reused, always clean and check it before installation. (Refer to GROUP 11F, Rocker Arms and Camshaft ).

>>E<< EXHAUST CAMSHAFT/INLET CAMSHAFT INSTALLATION


1.Remove sealant remained on the engine cylinder head.
2.Apply engine oil to the cam and the journal of the camshaft.

3.
caution Do not install wrong camshaft at the side of inlet or exhaust. The inlet camshaft has a slit at the rear surface.
Install the camshaft to the engine cylinder head.

>>F<< CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP, NO. 4/CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP, NO. 3/CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP, NO. 5/CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP, NO. 2/CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP, REAR LEFT/CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP, FRONT/CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP, REAR RIGHT INSTALLATION



1.Set the dowel pin of the camshaft to the position as shown in the illustration.

2.Camshaft bearing caps (No.2 to 5) are identical. To avoid confusion (bearing cap No. and inlet/exhaust side), confirm each identification mark and face the front mark towards the direction shown before installing them.
Identification mark (engraved on the front and bearing caps No.2 - 5)

    I: Inlet side
    E: Exhaust side

3.Apply sealant to the positions (8 areas) of the upper side of the cylinder head as shown in the illustration.
Specified sealant: ThreeBond 1212D or equivalent
note Install the camshaft bearing caps, rear and camshaft bearing caps immediately after applying sealant.
4.Check the identification marks on the camshaft bearing cap, front so that inlet side and exhaust side cannot be mistaken in the same way as that of bearing caps No.2 - 5.
5.
caution After the installation, until a sufficient period of time (one hour or more) elapses, do not apply the oil or water to the sealant application area or start the engine.
Tighten the bearing cap mounting bolts increasing the pressure in 2 to 3 times and finally tighten to the specified torque.
Tightening torque:

    25 ± 1 N·m <Camshaft bearing cap, front and rear>
    11 ± 1 N·m <Camshaft bearing cap No.2 - 5>
6.Ensure that the rocker arms are installed properly.
note Remove an excess of sealant completely.

>>G<< CYLINDER HEAD CAMSHAFT END SEAL INSTALLATION



Use special tool circular packing installer (MD998762) to press-fit the cylinder head camshaft end seal as shown.

>>H<< CAMSHAFT OIL SEAL INSTALLATION



1.Apply engine oil to the entire inner diameter of the oil seal lip.
2.Use special tool camshaft oil seal installer (MD998713) to press-fit the oil seal as shown.

>>I<< CAMSHAFT SPROCKET (EXHAUST SIDE) INSTALLATION



1.Hold the hexagon part of the camshaft with a wrench.
2.Install the camshaft sprocket and tighten the camshaft sprocket mounting bolt to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 88 ± 10 N·m

>>J<< CAMSHAFT SPROCKET (INLET SIDE) INSTALLATION



1.Apply engine oil to the tip of the camshaft and the camshaft installation side of the camshaft sprocket.
2.Align the dowel pin hole of the camshaft sprocket with the dowel pin of the camshaft, and install the camshaft sprocket to the camshaft.
3.While holding the hexagonal area of the camshaft with a wrench, check that the camshaft sprocket does not turn.
note This is necessary, because you cannot confirm that the camshaft dowel pin is inserted into the pin hole.

4.Apply the engine oil to the threads and the face of the camshaft sprocket mounting bolt. Then fix the camshaft with a wrench in the same way as removal and tighten the camshaft sprocket mounting bolt to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 55 ± 5 N·m

>>K<< CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSING CYLINDER INSTALLATION


1.Set the inlet camshaft to the No.1 cylinder at compression TDC.
note Use the force of the exhaust valve spring to rotate anti-clockwise.

2.Install the camshaft position sensing cylinder as shown, and tighten the camshaft position sensing cylinder mounting bolt to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 22 ± 4 N·m

>>L<< CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR SUPPORT INSTALLATION


1.Remove sealant from the camshaft position sensor support and cylinder head surfaces.

2.Apply the sealant to the camshaft position sensor support flange in a continuous bead as shown in the illustration.
Specified sealant: ThreeBond 1207F
note Install the camshaft position sensor support immediately after applying sealant.
3.Install the camshaft position sensor support to the cylinder head.
4.
caution After the installation, until a sufficient period of time (one hour or more) elapses, do not apply the oil or water to the sealant application area or start the engine.
Tighten the camshaft position sensor support mounting bolts to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 14 ± 1 N·m

>>M<< ROCKER COVER ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION



1.Tighten the each bolt to 5.0 ± 1.0 N·m in the order (1-14) shown.
2.After tightening of step 1, tighten the each bolt to 7.0 ± 1.0 N·m in the order (1-10) shown.
