6. CHECK TIMING CHAIN INSTALLATION
Check service records for any recent repairs that may cause timing chain misaligned.
Are there any service records that may cause timing chain misaligned?
Ye s o r N o
Yes >> Check timing chain installation. Refer to EM-173, "TIMING CHAIN" .
No >> GO TO 7.
7. CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT
Refer to EC-450, "
TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENT" .
For Wiring Diagram, refer to EC-519, "
Wiring Diagram" for CKP sensor (POS), EC-526, "Wiring Diagram" for
CMP sensor (PHASE).

INTAKE VALVE TIMING CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE
1. Disconnect intake valve timing control solenoid valve harness connector.
2. Check resistance between intake valve timing control solenoid
valve terminals as follows.
If NG, replace intake valve timing control solenoid valve.
If OK, go to next step.
3. Remove intake valve timing control solenoid valve.
4. Provide 12V DC between intake valve timing control solenoid
valve terminals and then interrupt it. Make sure that the plunger
moves as shown in the figure.
CAUTION:
Do not apply 12V DC continuously for 5 seconds or more.
Doing so may result in damage to the coil in intake valve
timing control solenoid valve.
If NG, replace intake valve timing control solenoid valve.
NOTE:
Always replace O-ring when intake valve timing control
solenoid valve is removed.

NOTE:
This section describes removal/installation procedure of camshaft without removing front cover. If front cover
is removed or installed, removal of camshaft bracket (No. 1) is easier before step 9 and installation is easier
after step 3. Regarding removal and installation of front cover, refer to EM-53, "
TIMING CHAIN" .
REMOVAL
1. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-49, "FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" .
2. Remove the following parts.

Engine cover; Refer to EM-19, "INTAKE MANIFOLD" .

4. Remove reservoir tank of power steering oil pump from bracket, and move power steering piping aside.
Refer to PS-39, "
HYDRAULIC LINE" .
CAUTION:
To avoid power steering fluid leakage, temporarily fix reservoir tank of power steering oil pump
vertically.
5. Remove intake valve timing control cover with the following procedure:
a. Disconnect intake valve timing control solenoid valve harness connector.
b. Disconnect ground cables and remove harness clip.
c. Remove intake valve timing control solenoid valve, if necessary.
d. Loosen bolts in reverse order as shown in the figure.
e . U s e s e a l c u t t e r [ S S T: K V 1 0 1111 0 0 ] o r e q u i v a l e n t t o o l t o c u t l i q -
uid gasket for removal.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.
6. Pull chain guide between camshaft sprockets out through front cover.
7. Set No. 1 cylinder at TDC on its compression stroke with the following procedure:
a. Remove splash guard (RH).
b. Rotate crankshaft pulley clockwise and align TDC mark to timing
indicator on front cover.
c. At the same time, make sure that the mating marks on camshaft
sprockets are located as shown in the figure.

If not, rotate crankshaft pulley one more turn to align mating
marks to the positions in the figure.
8. Remove camshaft sprockets with the following procedure:
a. Put indelible paint marks on timing chain link plate aligning with the mating marks on camshaft sprockets.

b. Push in chain tensioner plunger. Insert a stopper pin into hole on
chain tensioner body to secure chain tensioner plunger and
remove chain tensioner.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to drop mounting bolts inside front cover.
NOTE:
Use approximately 0.5 mm (0.02 in) dia. hard metal pin as a
stopper pin.
c. Secure hexagonal part of camshaft with wrench. Loosen cam-
shaft sprocket mounting bolts and remove camshaft sprockets.
CAUTION:

Do not loosen mounting bolts with securing anything
other than the camshaft hexagonal part or with tension-
ing timing chain.

Do not rotate crankshaft or camshaft while timing chain
is removed. It causes interference between valve and pis-
ton.
NOTE:
Chain tension holding work is not necessary. Crankshaft
sprocket and timing chain do not disconnect structurally while
front cover is attached.
9. Remove camshaft position sensor (PHASE) from cylinder head back side.
CAUTION:

Handle carefully to avoid dropping and shocks.

Do not disassemble.

Do not allow metal powder to adhere to magnetic part at sensor tip.

Do not place sensor in a location where it is exposed to magnetism.
10. Loosen mounting bolts in reverse order as shown in the figure,
and remove camshaft brackets.

Remove camshaft bracket (No. 1) by slightly tapping it with
plastic hammer.
11. Remove camshafts.
12. Remove valve lifters.

Identify installation positions, and store them without mixing them up.

ii. Apply liquid gasket to camshaft bracket (No. 1) contact surface
on the front cover backside.
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.

Apply liquid gasket to the outside of bolt hole on front cover.
iii. For camshaft bracket (No. 1) near installation position, and
install it without disturbing the liquid gasket applied to the sur-
faces.
4. Tighten mounting bolts of camshaft brackets in the following
steps, in numerical order as shown in the figure.
a. Tighten No. 9 to 11 in numerical order.
b. Tighten No. 1 to 8 in numerical order.
c. Tighten all bolts in numerical order.
d. Tighten all bolts in numerical order.
CAUTION:
After tightening mounting bolts of camshaft brackets, be sure to wipe off excessive liquid gasket
from the parts listed below.

Mating surfaces of rocker cover.

Mating surface of front cover. (When installed without front cover)
5. Install camshaft position sensor (PHASE).
6. Install camshaft sprockets.

Install them by aligning the mating marks on each camshaft
sprocket with the paint marks on timing chain link plate during
removal.
CAUTION:

Aligned mating marks could slip. Therefore, after
matching them, hold the timing chain in place by hand.

Before and after installing chain tensioner, make sure
again that mating marks have not slipped.
NOTE:
Before installation of chain tensioner, it is possible to re-match
the marks on timing chain with the ones on each sprocket.
7. Install chain tensioner.

CAUTION:
After installation, pull the stopper pin off completely, and make sure that chain tensioner plunger
is released.
8. Install chain guide.
9. Install intake valve timing control cover with the following procedure:
a. Install oil rings to the intake camshaft sprocket insertion points on backside of intake valve timing control
cover.
b. Install O-ring to front cover.
c. Apply liquid gasket with tube presser [SST: WS39930000] to
intake valve timing control cover as shown in the figure.
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.
d. Tighten mounting bolts in numerical order as shown in the fig-
ure.
e. Install intake valve timing control solenoid valve to intake valve timing control cover if removed.
f. Connect ground cables, and install harness clip.
10. Check and adjust valve clearance. Refer to EM-50, "
Valve Clearance" .
11. Install in the reverse order of removal after this step.
NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal/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.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection of Camshaft Sprocket (INT) Oil Groove
CAUTION:

Perform this inspection only when DTC P0011 is detected in self-diagnostic results of CONSULT-II
and it is directed according to inspection procedure of EC section. Refer to EC-82, "
SELF-DIAG
RESULTS MODE" .

Check when the engine is cold so as to prevent burns from any splashing engine oil.
1. Check the engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "
ENGINE OIL" .
2. Perform the following procedure so as to prevent the engine from being unintentionally started while
checking.
a. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-49, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" .
b. Disconnect ignition coil and injector harness connectors.
3. Remove intake valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to EM-41, "
