REASSEMBLY
a.Thoroughly clean all parts to be assembled.
b. Before installing the parts, apply fresh engine oil to all sliding and rotating surfaces.
c. Replace oil seals with new ones.
1. Install valves.
(1) Using SST(09222- 22001), push in a new valve stem seal with applying engine oil.
a.Do not reuse old valve stem seals.
Incorrect installation of the seal could result in oil leakage past the valve guides.
b. Reassemble the valve stem seals
(2) After applying engine oil on the outer surface of each valve stem, insert the valve in the valve guide.
Install the valve, valve spring and spring retainer.
When installing valve springs, the side coated with enamel should face toward the valve spring retainer
(3) Using the SST(09222 - 3K000, 09222 - 3C300), compress the springs and install the retainer locks. After
installing the valves, ensure that the retainer locks are correctly in place before releasing the valve spring
compressor.

3. Check the connecting rod.
(1) When reinstalling, check the cylinder numbers on the connecting rods and the caps. When installing a new
connecting rod, the notches for bearing fixing on the connecting rods and caps should face the same direction.
(2) If one or both edge of the connecting rod thrust surface is damaged, replace the rod. If the inner surface of the
rod is damaged or rough, also replace it.
(3) Using a connecting rod aligner, measure the bent or torsion of the rod. If the measurement is near the
specification, adjust the rod with a press. If the rod is bent or twisted excessily, replace it.
Bending : 0.05mm/100mm(0.0020in./3.9370in.)
Torsion : 0.1mm/100mm(0.0039in./3.9370in.)
When assembling the rod without a bearing, there should be no difference.
4. Check the crankshaft bearing oil clearance.
(1) To check main bearing- to- journal oil clearance, remove the main bearing caps and bearing halves.
(2) Clean each main journal and bearing half with a clean shop tower.
(3) Place one strip of plastigage across each main journal.
(4) Reinstall the bearings and caps, then torque the bolts.
Tightening torque
M8 : 15.7Nm(1.6 kgf.m, 11.6lb- ft) + 90°
M10 : 29.4 Nm(3.0 kgf.m, 21.7lb- ft)+ 90°
Tighten the bolts in order.
(5) Remove the cap and bearing again, and measure the widest part of the plastigage.
Standard oil clearance
0.004~ 0.022mm (0.0002 ~ 0.0009in.)

fluctuated even though turns on or off the input signal. The electrical ‘time constant’ is much more fast than one of
mechanical so the frequency of VFS is extremely higher than the conventional PWM type.
Characteristics of Bosch VFS:
Supply pressure : 700~1600kPa
Control pressure: typically 600~0 kPa
Current range: typically 0~1,000 mA
Dither frequency: Up to 600 Hz
Dimension: 32 mm protrusion reach 42 mm
The reducing pressure will be supplied to the ‘Supply’ port of the VFS valve on the above illustration to control the line
pressure.
Reducing pressure
Function
As same as one of Alpha or Beta automatic transaxle system, this reducing valve length can be adjusted by rotating
the screw on the picture. As you rotate the screw toward clockwise by 90°, the reducing pressure will increase about
1.0bar. However, the reducing pressure is used just as a ‘supply pressure’ for the solenoid valves (except
Low&Reverse, Reduction and Damper Clutch control solen), so this may not be handled to rotate in the field service
shop. VFS is operated based on the ‘supply pressure’ and it outputs the ‘control pressure’ to control the regulator
valve indirectly. While developing the VFS system, the line pressure was used as a ‘supply pressure’ for VFS and
other solenoid valves but it has been changed into additional ‘reducing pressure’ because the line pressure is variably
changed by VFS so the control pressure becomes unstable and some hydraulic pressure oscillation occurred. That is

WHEEL ALIGNMENT
When using commercially available computerized four wheel alignment equipment (caster, camber, toe) to inspect the
front wheel alignment, always position the car on a level surface with the front wheels facing straight ahead.
Prior to inspection, make sure that the front suspension and steering system are in normal operating condition and
that the wheels and tires face straight ahead and the tires are inflated to the specified pressure.
TOE
Toe is a measurement of how much the front of the wheels are turned in or out from the straight- ahead position.
Item Description
A - B < 0 Positive (+) toe (toe in)
A - B > 0 Negative ( - ) toe (toe out)
When the wheels are turned in toward the front of the vehicle, toe is positive (+) (toe in). When the wheels are turned
out toward the front of the vehicle, toe is negative(- ) (toe out). Toe is measured in degrees, from side to side, and
totaled.
[FRONT]
Toe- in(B - A or angle a+b) is adjusted by turning the tie rod turnbuckles. Toe- in on the left front wheel can be reduced
by turning the tie rod toward the rear of the car. Toe- in change is adjusted by turning the tie rods for the right and left
heels simultaneously at the same amount as follows.
Standard value :
Toe- in (B- A) mm (in) : 0 ± 2 (0 ± 0.0787)
a. Toe- in adjustment should be made by turning the right and left tie rods at the same amount.
b. When adjusting toe - in, loosen the outer bellows clip to prevent twisting the bellows.
c. After the adjustment, tighten the tie rod end lock nuts firmly and reinstall the bellows clip.
d. Adjust each toe - in to be the range of ±1mm.
Tie rod(A) Specified torque Nm (kgf.m, lb - ft) :
70 ~ 80 (7 ~ 8, 50.6 ~ 57.8)

2.Remove the dust cover (B) from the ball joint (A).
3.Remove the bellows band (A).
4.Remove the bellows clip (A).
5.Pull the bellows out toward the tie rod.
