Valve Clearance
Adjustment
NOTE:
. Valves should be adjusted only when the cylindsrhead temperature is less than 100"F (38"C).
. After adjusting, retorque the crankshaft pulley bolt(see page 6-16).
1, Remove the cylinder head cover.
NOTE; Refer to page e46 when installing the cytinderhead cover.
2. Remove the upper cover (see page 6-19).
3. Set the No. 1 piston at TDC. The "UP" mark on the
cam-shaft pulley should be at top, and the TDC
marks should align with the cylinder head surface.

CAUTION: lt*ays aa;j"t the timing bett rension withthe engine cold.
NOTE:
. The tensioner is spring loaded to apply tension to thebelt automatically after making the following adjustment.
. Always rotate the crankshaft counterclockwise whenviewed from the pulley side. Rotating it clockwisemay result in improper adjustment of the belt ten-sion.
. lnspect the timing belt before adjusting the belt ten-ston.
1.Remove the cylinder head cover.
. Refer to page 6,46 when installing.
Remove the upper cover (see page 6,'19).

NOTE:
. We recommend using a beam-type torque
wrench, When using a preset-type torque wrench.
be sure to tighten slowly and not to overtighten.
. If a bolt makesany noisewhileyou aretorquing it,
loosen the bolt, and retighten it from the 1st step,

Install the intake manifold and tighten the nuts in a
crisscross pattern in two or three steps, beginning
with the inner nuts (see pages 9-2 thru 9-4).
. Always use a new intake manifold gasket.
Install the exhaust manifold and tighten the nuts in
a crisscross pattern in two or three steps, beginning
with the inner nut {see pages 9-6 and g-7).
. Always use a new exhaust manifold gasket.
Install the exhaust manifold bracket. lnstall the
exhaust pipe A and the bracket, then install the cover.

Install the head cover gasket in the groove of the
cylinder head cover, Seat the recesses for the
camshaft first, then work it into the groove around
the outside edges.
NOTE:
. Before installing the head cover gasket, thor-
oughly clean the seal and the groove.
. When installing, make sure the head cover gas-
ket is seated securely in the corners of the
recesses wath no gap.
COBNERS OFTHE RECESS

Apply liquid gasket to the head cover gasket at the
four corners of the recesses.
NOTE:
. Use liquid gasket, Pan No. 08718 - 0001 or 08718- 0003.
. Check that the mating surfaces are clean and dry
before applying liquid gasket.
. 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.

NOTE:
. Do not rotate the camshaft during inspection.
. Removg the rocker arms and rocker shafts.
'L Put the camshafts and camshaft holders on the cylin-
der head. and then tighten the bolts to the specified
torque.
Specified Torque:

Seat the camshaft by pushing it toward the distribu-
tor end of the cylinder head.
Zero the dial indicator against the end of the distrib-
utor drive. then push the camshaft back and fonh
and read the end play.

4.Remove the bolts. then remove the camshaft hold-
ers from the cylinder head.
- Lift the camshaft out of the cylinder head, wipe
clean, then inspect the lift ramps. Replace the
camshaft if lobes are pitted, scored, or excessively
- Clean the camshaft bearing surfaces in the cylin
der head, then set the camshaft back in place,
- Insert a plastigage strip across each iournal.
Put the camshaft on the cylinder head. then install
the camshaft holders, and then tighten the bolts to
the specified torque as shown in the left column on
this page.
Remove the camshaft holders, then measure the
widest portion of the plastigage on each journal.

Installation
lnstall the cylinder head in the reverse order of removal:
NOTE:
. Always use a new head and manifold gasket.. The cylinder head gasket is a metal gasket, Take carenot to bend it.
. Rotate the crankshaft, set the No. 1 piston at TDC (seepage 6-63).
. Do not use the middle cover and lower cover forstorang removed items.. Clean the middle cover and lower cover before instal_lation.
o Replace any washers that are damaged or deteriorated.
1. Install the cylinder head gasket, dowel pins and thehead oil control orifice on the cylinder head.
NOTE: Clean the oil control orifice when installing.

2, Tighten the cylinder head bolts in two steps. In thefirst step, tighten all bolts in sequence to about 29N.m (3.0 kgf.m, 22 tbf.ftl. ln the final step, tighten inthe same sequence to 83 N.m (8.S kgf.m,6t lbf.ft).
NOTE:
. Apply clean engine oil to the bolt threads andunder the bolt head.. We recommend using a beam-type torquewrench. When using a preset-type torque wrench,be sure to tighten slowly and not to overtighten.. lf a bolt makes any noise while you are torquing it,loosen the bolt, and retighten it from the 1st step.
