CAUTION:
+When installing camshafts, chain tensioners, oil seals, or
other sliding parts, lubricate contacting surfaces with new
engine oil.
+Apply new engine oil to threads and seat surfaces when
installing cylinder head, camshaft sprocket, crankshaft
pulley, and camshaft bracket.
+Attach tags to valve lifters so as not to mix them up.
RemovalNJEM0063PREPARATIVE WORKNJEM0063S011. Drain engine coolant. Refer to LC-44, ªChanging Engine Cool-
antº.
2. Remove exhaust manifold. Refer to EM-112, ªRemovalº.
3. Remove intake manifold. Refer to EM-108, ªRemovalº.
+Apply paint to camshaft sprockets for alignment during
installation.
JEM152G
CAMSHAFTNJEM0063S021. Remove the following parts:
+Rocker cover
+Vacuum pump and cylinder head rear cover assembly
+Spill tube
+High pressure injection nozzle assembly
+Secondary timing chain and associated parts
JEM159G
2. Remove camshaft sprockets.
+Holding the hexagonal part of the camshaft with a wrench
having 21 mm (0.83 in) width between facing flats, loosen the
bolt holding the camshaft sprocket.
JEM160G
3. Remove camshafts.
+Loosen bolts holding the camshaft bracket in several stages in
the reverse order of that shown in the figure, and remove them.
4. Remove adjusting shims and valve lifters.
+Confirm the correct location of each part removed. Store them
so they do not get mixed up.

2. Drain the oil after matching the ªDRAINº arrow mark at the
bottom of the filter body to the protrusion on the oil filter
bracket.
+Catch the oil with a pan or cloth.
CAUTION:
+The drained oil flows over the right surface of the filter
body.
+Completely wipe clean any engine oil remaining on the
filter body or vehicle.
3. Remove the filter body, then remove the oil filter element.
JLC292B
4. Remove the O-ring from the filter body.
+Push the O-ring in one direction, lift the slack part using
fingers, and remove the O-ring from the filter body.
CAUTION:
Do not use wires or flat-bladed screwdrivers etc. as they may
cause damage to the filter body.
INSTALLATIONNJLC0076S021. Completely remove all foreign objects adhering to the inside of
the filter body or O-ring mounting area (body side and bracket
side).
2. Install the oil filter element and O-ring to the filter body.
+Push the oil filter element into the filter body completely.
3. Install the filter body to the oil filter bracket.
: 20 - 24 N´m (2.0 - 2.5 kg-m, 15 - 18 ft-lb)
4. After warming up the engine, check for engine oil leakage.

2. Reinstall mainshaft rear bearing outer race without shims.
3. Clean mating surfaces of clutch housing and transmission
case with solvent.
4. Install mainshaft and mainshaft front bearing outer race into
transmission case. Turn mainshaft while holding bearing outer
race so that bearings are properly seated.

5. Put straightedge [width must be more than 50 mm (1.97 in)] on
transmission case, and measure the distance from upper sur-
face of straightedge to surface of the bearing outer race using
a depth micrometer.
+Measure at three places on bearing outer race, and take
the average.
6. Determine dimension A to be used by the following equation.
Dimension A = Width of straightedge þ measured dis-
tance
7. Measure the distance from mating surface of clutch housing to
portion with which mainshaft front bearing outer race is to be
mated.
+Measure at three places on the portion, and take the aver-
age.
