9. Remove fuel injector from fuel tube.
a. Spread open to remove clip.
b. Remove fuel injector from the
fuel tube by pulling straight out.
CAUTION:
• Be careful with remaining fuel that may leak out from fuel
tube.
• Do not damage injector nozzles during removal.
• Do not bump or drop fuel injectors.
• Do not disassemble fuel injectors.
10. Remove fuel damper from each fuel tube.
INSTALLATION
1. Install fuel damper to each fuel tube.
a. Apply engine oil to O-ring and set it into the cap of fuel tube. CAUTION:
• Handle O-ring with bare hands. Never wear gloves.
• Lubricate O-ring with new engine oil.
• Do not clean O-ring with solvent.
• Make sure that O-ring and its mating part are free of for- eign material.
• When installing O-ring, be car eful not to scratch it with
tool or fingernails. Also be careful not to twist or stretch
O-ring.
b. Make sure that backup spacer is in the O-ring connecting sur- face of fuel damper.
NOTE:
Backup spacer is fuel damper assembly part.
c. Insert fuel damper until it seats on fuel tube. CAUTION:
• Insert straight, making sure that the axis is lined up.
• Do not pressure-fit with excessive force.
d. Install cap, and then tighten bolts evenly by turns. • After tightening bolts, make sure that there is no gap between cap and fuel tube.
2. Install O-rings to fuel injector paying attention to the items below. CAUTION:
• Upper and lower O-ring are different.
• Handle O-ring with bare hands. Never wear gloves.

• Lubricate O-ring with new engine oil.
• Do not clean O-ring with solvent.
• Make sure that O-ring and its mating part are free of foreign material.
• When installing O-ring, be careful not to scratch it with tool or fingernails. Also be careful not to
twist or stretch O-ring. If O-ring was stretc hed while it was being attached, do not insert it
quickly into fuel tube.
• Insert O-ring straight into fuel tube. Do not angle or twist it.
3. Install fuel injector to fuel tube.
a. Insert clip into clip mounting groove on fuel injector. • Insert clip so that lug “A” of fuel injector matches notch “A” ofthe clip.
CAUTION:
• Do not reuse clip. Replace it with a new one.
• Be careful to keep clip from interfering with O-ring. Ifinterference occurs, replace O-ring.
b. Insert fuel injector into fuel tube with clip attached. • Insert it while matching it to the axial center.
• Insert fuel injector so that lug “B” of fuel tube matches notch
“B” of the clip.
• Make sure that fuel tube flange is securely fixed in flange fixing groove on clip.
c. Make sure that installation is complete by checking that fuel injector does not rotate or come off.
• Make sure that protrusions of fuel injectors are aligned withcutouts of clips after installation.
4. Install fuel tube and fuel injector assembly to intake manifold. CAUTION:
Be careful not to let tip of injector nozzle come in contact with other parts.
• Tighten fuel tube assembly bolts “a” to “b” in illustration and in
two steps.
5. Install fuel hose assembly. • Follow the precautions for fuel injector when handling O-ring.
• Insert connectors straight, making sure that the axis is lined up with fuel tube side to prevent O-ring from
being damaged.
• Tighten bolts evenly in several steps.
• Make sure that there is no gap between flange and fuel tube after tightening bolts.
6. Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
After installing fuel tubes, make sure there are no fuel leaks at connections using the following steps.
1. Apply fuel pressure to fuel lines by turning ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). Then check for fuel leaks at connections.
2. Start the engine and rev it up and check for fuel leaks at connections. WARNING:

13. Remove the chain tensioner on the LH bank using the following steps. NOTE:
To remove the timing chain and associated parts, start with those on the LH bank. The procedure for
removing parts on the RH bank is omitted because it is the same as that for the LH bank.

Check for cracks and any excessive wear at link plates. Replace
chain if necessary.
• In the same way as for the LH bank, inspect the timing chain andassociated parts on the RH bank.
INSTALLATION
NOTE:
• The above figure shows the relationship between the ma ting mark on each timing chain and that of the cor-
responding sprocket, with the components installed.
• To install the timing chain and associated parts, start with those on the RH bank. The procedure for installing parts on the LH bank is omitted because it is t he same as that for installation on the RH bank.

1. Make sure the crankshaft key and camshaft dowel pin RH bank
and camshaft dowel pin LH bank are facing in the direction
shown.
2. Install the camshaft sprockets. • Install the camshaft sprocket INT (VTC) (A) and camshaftsprockets EXH (B) by selectively using the groove of the
dowel pin according to the bank. (Common part used for both
exhaust banks.)
NOTE:
Use the groove marked "R" for RH bank and "L" for LH bank.
• Lock the hexagonal part of the camshaft in the same way as for removal, and tighten the bolts.
3. Install the crankshaft sprockets for both banks. • Install LH bank crankshaft sprocket (B) and RH bank crank-shaft sprocket (C) so that their flange side (A) (the larger diam-
eter side without teeth) faces in the direction shown.
NOTE:
The same parts are used but facing directions are different.
4. Install the timing chains and associated parts. • Align the alignment mark on each sprocket and the timing chain for installation.CAUTION:
• Before installing timing chain tensioner, it is possible to change the position of alignment mark
on timing chain and each sprocket . After the alignment marks are aligned, keep them aligned
by holding them by hand.
• Install the slack guides and tension guides onto the correct side by checking the identification mark on
the surface.
• Install the chain tensioner with t he plunger locked in with the stopper pin.
CAUTION:
• Before and after the installation of the timing chain tensioner, make sure that the alignment
mark on the timing chain is not out of alignment.
• After installing the timing chain tensioner, remove the stopp er pin to release the tensioner.
Make sure the tensioner is released.
• To avoid chain-link skipping of the timing chain, do not move crankshaft or camshafts until the
front cover is installed.
5. In the same way as for the RH bank, install the timing chain and associated parts on the LH bank.
6. Install the oil pump.
