CAMSHAFT


Follow your identification marks made during removal, or fol-
low the identification marks that are present on new cam-
shafts for proper placement and direction.
VQ23DE
VQ35DE

Install camshafts so that dowel pin hole and dowel pin on front
end face are positioned as shown in the figure. (No. 1 cylinder
TDC on its compression stroke)
NOTE:

Large and small pin holes are located on front end face of
camshaft (INT), at intervals of 180 degrees. Face small dia.
side pin hole upward (in cylinder head upper face direc-
tion).

Though camshaft does not stop at the portion as shown in
the figure, for the placement of cam nose, it is generally
accepted camshaft is placed for the same direction of the
figure.

3. Install valve oil seal.

Install with valve oil seal drift (SST) to match dimension in the
figure.
4. Install valve spring seat.
5. Install valve.

Install it in the original position.
NOTE:
Larger diameter valves are for intake side.
6. Install valve spring (uneven pitch type).

Install narrow pitch end (paint mark) to cylinder head side
(valve spring seat side).

Intake side and exhaust side valve springs are different.
Install them referring to the following paint mark collar.
(VQ23DE)
*: Exhaust side valve spring for VQ23DE has a parallel setting.
7. Install valve spring retainer.
8. Install valve collet.

Compress valve spring with valve spring compressor, attach-
ment and adapter (SST). Install valve collet with magnet
hand.
CAUTION:
When working, take care not to damage valve lifter holes.

Tap valve stem edge lightly with plastic hammer after installa-
tion to check its installed condition.
9. Install valve lifter.

Install it in the original position.
10. Install spark plug tube.

Press-fit spark plug tube as follows:
a. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to cylinder head mounting hole.
b. Apply sealant to area within approximately 12 mm (0.47 in) from edge of spark plug tube press-fit side.
Use Thread Locking Sealant or equivalent. Height “H” (Without valve spring seat installed)

5. Using valve guide drift (commercial service tool), press valve
guide from camshaft side to the dimensions as in the figure.
CAUTION:
Cylinder head contains heat. When working, wear protec-
tive equipment to avoid getting burned.
6. Using valve guide reamer (commercial service tool), apply
reamer finish to valve guide.
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 surface of
valve seat to check the condition of the valve contact on the sur-
face.

Check if the contact area band is continuous all around the cir-
cumference.

If not, grind to adjust valve fitting and check again. If the contact-
ing surface still has “NG” conditions even after the re-check,
replace valve seat. Refer to EM-220, "
VALVE SEAT REPLACE-
MENT" .
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 should not continue beyond the bottom face of the seat recess
in cylinder head. Set the machine depth stop to ensure this. Refer to EM-262, "
Va l v e S e a t" .
CAUTION:
Prevent to scratch cylinder head by excessive boring.
2. Ream cylinder head recess diameter for service valve seat.

Be sure to ream in circles concentric to valve guide center.
This will enable valve to fit correctly.Projection “L”

Undersize Bearing Usage Guide

When the specified main bearing oil clearance is not obtained with standard size main bearings, use
underside (US) bearing.

When using undersize (US) bearing, measure the main bearing inner diameter with bearing installed, and
grind main journal so that the main bearing oil clearance satisfies the standard.
CAUTION:
In grinding crankshaft main journal to use undersize bear-
ings, keep the fillet R [1.5 mm (0.059 in)].
