INSPECTION
NOTE:
Perform the following inspection after removal, installation or replacement of camshaft or valve-related parts,
or if there are unusual engine conditions due to changes in valve clearance over time (starting, idling, and/or
noise).
1. Warm up the engine. Then stop the engine.
2. Remove the air duct and resonator assembly. Refer to EM-25, "
Removal and Installation".
3. Remove the RH bank and LH bank rocker covers using power tool. Refer to EM-38, "
Removal and Instal-
lation".
4. Turn the crankshaft pulley in the normal direction (clockwise when viewed from engine front) to align TDC identification notch
(without paint mark) with timing indicator.
5. At this time, make sure both the intake and exhaust cam noses of No. 1 cylinder (top front on LH bank) face outside.

• No. 1 cylinder compression TDC
• Measure valve clearance using suitable tool. Refer to EM-108,
"Standard and Limit".
CAUTION:
If the inspection was carried out with a cold engine, make
sure the values with a fully warmed up engine are still
within specifications.

tion of No. 1 cylinder compression TDC) to measure the intake
and exhaust valve clearances of No. 6 cylinder (G) and the
exhaust valve clearance of No. 2 cylinder (E).

• K: No. 3 cylinder
• L: No. 5 cylinder
• M: No. 7 cylinder
10. If out of specifications, adjust as necessary.
ADJUSTMENT
NOTE:
• Perform adjustment depending on the selected head thickness of the valve lifter.
• The specified valve lifter thickness is the dimension at normal temperatures. Ignore dimensional differences
caused by temperature. Us e the specifications for hot engine condition to adjust.
1. Remove the camshaft. Refer to EM-53, "
Removal and Installation".
2. Remove the valve lifters at the locations that are out of specification.
3. Measure the center thickness of the removed valve lifters using suitable tool.
4. Use the equation below to calculate the valve lifter thickness for replacement.
• Valve lifter thickness calculation:Thickness of replacement valve lifter = t1+ (C1 - C2)
t1 = Thickness of removed valve lifter
C1 = Measured valve clearance
C2= Standard valve clearance:
• Thickness of a new valve lifter can be identified by stamp marks on the reverse side (inside the cylinder).
Stamp mark N788 indicates 7.88 mm (0.3102 in) in thickness.
• Available thickness of valve lifter: 25 sizes with range 7.88 to 8.36 mm (0.3102 to 0.3291 in) in steps of 0.02 mm (0.0008 in)
(when manufactured at factory). Refer to EM-108, "
Standard
and Limit".
5. Install the selected valve lifter.

7. Obtain compression TDC of No. 1 cylinder as follows:
a. Turn the crankshaft pulley clockwise to align the TDC identifica-tion notch (without paint mark) with the timing indicator on the
front cover.
b. At this time, make sure both intake and exhaust cam lobes of No. 1 cylinder (top front on LH bank) point outside.
• If they do not point outside, turn crankshaft pulley once more.
8. Remove the crankshaft pulley.
a. Loosen the crankshaft pulley bolts using a hammer handle to secure the crankshaft.
b. Remove the crankshaft pulley from the crankshaft using tool. • Remove the crankshaft pulley using suitable tool. Set the boltsin the two bolt holes [M6 x 1.0 mm (0.04 in)] on the front sur-
face.
NOTE:
The dimension between the centers of the two bolt holes is 61
mm (2.40 in).
9. Remove the front cover.
a. Loosen and remove the bolts in the reverse of order shown.
b. Cut the liquid gasket and remove the covers using Tool. CAUTION:
Do not damage mating surfaces.
10. Remove the front oil seal using suitable tool. CAUTION:
Do not damage front cover.

b. Select the one most visible notch of the four on the bolt flange.Corresponding to the selected notch, put a alignment mark
(such as paint) on the crankshaft pulley.
14. Rotate the crankshaft pulley in normal direction (clockwise when viewed from engine front) to check for parts interference.
15. Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse of order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Before starting the engine, check oil/fluid levels in cluding engine coolant and engine oil. If the levels are
lower than required quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-12, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to the fuel piping, check for fuel leakage at the connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, che ck again for fuel leakage 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 is no leakage 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 the engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to
specified level if necessary.
• Summary of the inspection items:
*Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.
