CAUTION:
+After removing timing chain, do not turn crankshaft and
camshaft separately, or valves will strike piston heads.
+When installing chain tensioner, oil seats, or other sliding
parts, lubricate contacting surfaces with new engine oil.
+Apply new engine oil to bolt threads and seat surfaces
when installing camshaft sprocket and crankshaft pulley.
+When removing oil pump assembly, remove camshaft
position sensor (PHASE), then remove timing chain from
engine.
+Be careful not to damage sensor edges.

VALVE SEATSNJEM0019S10Check valve seats for pitting at contact surface. Resurface or
replace if excessively worn.
+Before repairing valve seats, check valve and valve guide
for wear. If they have worn, replace them. Then correct
valve seat.
+Use both hands to cut uniformly.

REPLACING VALVE SEAT FOR SERVICE PARTSNJEM0019S111. Bore out old seat until it collapses. Set machine depth stop so
that boring cannot contact the bottom face of seat recess in
cylinder head.
2. Ream cylinder head recess.
Reaming bore for service valve seat
Oversize [0.5 mm (0.020 in)]:
Refer to SDS, EM-71.
Use the valve guide center for reaming to ensure valve seat
will have the correct fit.

1. Warm up engine.
2. Turn ignition switch OFF.
3. Using CONSULT-II, make sure no error codes are indicated for
self-diagnosis items. Refer to EC-10, ªTrouble Diagnosis Ð
INDEXº.
+Do not disconnect CONSULT-II until the end of this operation;
it will be used to check engine rpm and for error detection at
the end of this operation.
4. Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
5. To prevent fuel from being injected during inspection, remove
fuel injection pump fuse [ENG CONT2 (20A)] from fuse box on
the left side of engine compartment.
6. Remove glow plugs from all the cylinders.
+Before removal, clean the surrounding area to prevent
entry of any foreign materials into the engine.
+Carefully remove glow plugs to prevent any damage or
breakage.
+Handle with care to avoid applying any shock to glow
plugs.
SEM112G
7. Install adapter (SST) to installation holes of glow plugs and
connect compression gauge for diesel engine.
: 18 - 21 N´m (1.8 - 2.2 kg-m, 13 - 15 ft-lb)
8. Connect battery negative terminal.
9. Set the ignition switch to ªSTARTº and crank. When gauge
pointer stabilizes, read compression pressure and engine rpm.
Repeat the above steps for each cylinder.
+Always use a fully-charged battery to obtain specified
engine speed.
Unit: kPa (bar, kg/cm2, psi)/rpm

+When engine rpm is out of the specified range, check the spe-
cific gravity of battery liquid. Measure again under corrected
conditions.
+If engine rpm exceeds the limit, check valve clearance and
combustion chamber components (valves, valve seats, cylin-
der head gaskets, piston rings, pistons, cylinder bores, cylin-
der block upper and lower surfaces) and measure again.
10. Complete this operation as follows:
a. Turn the ignition switch to ªOFFº.
b. Disconnect battery negative terminal.
c. Install glow plugs.

5. Remove valve oil seals.
+Use a valve oil seal puller (SST) for removal.
6. Remove valve spring seats.
7. When removing valve seats, check valve seat contact. Refer
to EM-126.
8. Before removing valve guides, check valve guide clearance.
Refer to EM-124, ªVALVE GUIDE CLEARANCEº.
9. Remove glow plugs.
+To avoid damage, glow plugs should be removed only
when required.
+Handle with care to avoid applying shock. (When dropped
from approx. 100 mm (3.94 in) or higher, always replace
with a new one.)

InspectionNJEM0065CYLINDER HEAD DISTORTIONNJEM0065S01Clean surface of cylinder head.
Use a reliable straightedge and feeler gauge to check the flatness
of cylinder head surface.
Check along six positions shown in the figure.
Head surface flatness: Limit 0.04 mm (0.0016 in)
If beyond the specified limit, resurface or replace it.
The limit for cylinder head resurfacing is determined by the
cylinder block resurfacing.
Resurfacing limit:
Amount of cylinder head resurfacing is ªAº.
Amount of cylinder block resurfacing is ªBº.
The maximum limit: A+ B = 0.07 mm (0.0028 in)
After resurfacing cylinder head, check that camshaft rotates freely
by hand. If resistance is felt, cylinder head must be replaced.
Nominal cylinder head height:
153.9 - 154.1 mm (6.059 - 6.067 in)
