Lift the camshafts out of the cylinder head. wipe
them clean, then inspect the lift ramps, Replace the
camshaft if any lobes are pitted, scored, or exces-
sively worn.
Clean the camshaft journal surfaces in the cylinder
head, then set the camshaft back in Dlace. Place aplastigage strip across each journal.

Check that the mating surfaces are clean and dry.
Apply liquid gasket, part No. 08718 - 0001 or 08718- 0003, to the head cover gasket at the eight corners
of the recesses.
NOTE:
. Do not install the parts if five minutes or more
have elapsed since applying liquid gasket.
Instead, reapply liquid gasket after removing old
residue.
. After assembly. wait at least 30 minutes before
filling the engine with oil.
Apply liquid gasket tothe shaded areas.
Hold the head cover gasket in the groove by placing
your fingers on the camshaft holder contacting sur-
faces (top of the semicirclesl.
Once the cylinder head cover is on the cylinder
head, slide the cover slightly back and forth to seat
the head cover gasket.

Connecting Rod and Crankshaft
End Play
1. Measure the connecting rod end play with a feeler
gauge.
Connecting Rod End Play:
Stsndard (Nsw): 0.15 - 0.30 mm
{0.006 - 0.012 in)
Service Limit: 0./t0 mm 10.016 in)
2. lf the connecting rod end play is out-of-tolerance,
install a new connecting rod.
lf it is still out-of-tolerance, replace the crankshaft
{see pages 7-9 and 7-20).
7-6
3. Push the crankshaft firmly away from the dial indi-
cator, and zero the dial against the end of the
crankshaft. Then pull the crankshaft firmly back
toward the indicator; the dial reading should not
exceed the service limit.
Crankshaft End Play:
Stand.rd (New): 0.10 - 0,35 mm(0.004 - 0.014 inl
Service Limit: 0.45 mm (0.018 inl
4. lf end play is excessive, inspect the thrust washers
and thrust surface on the crankshaft. Reolace oans as
necessary. Thrust washer thickness is fixed and
must not be changed either by grinding or shim-
mrng.

seconos.
lll. Final Procedure {this procedure must be done after any troubleshooting)
1. Remove the SCS Service Connector if it is connected. lf the SCS service connector is connected. and there are no
DTCS stored in the ECM/PCM, the MIL will stay on when the ignition switch is turnsd oN (ll).
2. Do the ECM/PCM Reset Procedure.
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF
