FUEL INJECTOR AND FUEL TUBE
c. Align center to insert quick connector straight onto fuel tube.
d. Insert fuel tube into quick connector (1) until the top spool (B) on fuel tubes is inserted completely and the second level spool (C)
is positioned slightly below the quick connector bottom end.
CAUTION:
• Hold at position (A) as show n, when inserting the fuel
tube into the quick connector.
• Carefully align to center to avoid inclined insertion to pre-
vent damage to the O-ring inside the quick connector.
• Insert the fuel tube until you hear a “click” sound and
actually feel the engagement.
• To avoid misidentification of engagement with a similar
sound, be sure to perform the next step.
• Do not reuse O-ring.
e. Before clamping the fuel hose with the hose clamp, pull the quick connector hard by hand, holding at the
(A) position, as shown. Make sure it is completely engaged (connected) so that it does not come off of the
fuel tube.
NOTE:
Recommended pulling force is 50 N (5.1 kg, 11.2 lb).
f. Install quick connector cap (1) over fuel hose side (B) and fuel tube side (A).
NOTE:
Direct arrow mark on quick connector cap (1) to fuel hose side.
5. Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Make sure there are no fuel leaks at connections as follows:
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. • Perform procedures for “Throttle Valve Closed Posi tion Learning” after finishing repairs. Refer to EC-
178, "Work Procedure".
• If electric throttle control actuator is replaced, perform procedures for “Idle Air Volume Learning” after
finishing repairs. Refer to EC-179, "Work Procedure"

WARNING:
Check when engine is cold so as to preven t burns from any splashing engine oil.
CAUTION:
Perform this inspection only when DTC P0011, P0014, P052A, P052B is detected in self-diagnostic
results of CONSULT and it is directed according to inspection procedure of EC section. Refer to EC-
210, "Diagnosis Procedure".
1. Check engine oil level and adjust oil level as necessary. Refer to LU-9, "Inspection"
.
2. Remove the intake valve timing intermediate lock control solenoid valve, intake valve timing control sole- noid valve, and exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to EM-58, "Intake Valve Timing Interme-
diate Lock Control Solenoid Valve, Intake Valve Timing Control Solenoid Valve, and Exhaust Valve Timing
Control Solenoid Valve".
3. Perform the following procedure to prevent the engi ne from being unintentionally started while checking.
a. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-182, "Work Procedure"
.
b. Disconnect injector harness connectors.
4. Crank engine, and then make sure that engine oil comes out of the valve timing control cover oil holes (A). End cranking after
checking.
WARNING:
Be careful not to touch rotating parts (drive belt, crankshaft
pulley, etc.).
CAUTION:
• Engine oil may squirt from intake valve timing intermedi-
ate lock control solenoid valve, intake valve timing control
solenoid valve, exhaust valve timing control solenoid
valve installation holes during cranking. Use a shop cloth
to prevent engine oil from splashing on worker, engine
components and vehicle.
• Do not allow engine oil to get on rubber componen ts such as drive belts or engine mount insula-
tors. Immediately wipe off any splashed engine oil.
5. If engine oil does not come out from valve timing cont rol cover oil holes (A), diagnose problem in lubrica-
tion circuit such as dirty oil groove between oil strainer and intake valve timing intermediate lock control
solenoid valve, intake valve timing control solenoid valve, or exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve.
Refer to LU-7, "Lubrication Circuit"
.
a. Remove components between intake valve timing intermediate lock control solenoid valve, intake valve timing control solenoid valve, exhaust valve timing c ontrol solenoid valve and camshaft sprocket (INT) or
camshaft sprocket (EXH), (if necessary) and then check each oil groove for clogging.
b. Clean oil groove if necessary. Refer to LU-7, "Lubrication Circuit"
.
6. After inspection, install the remaining components in the reverse order of removal.

1. Wipe off oil and remove water scale deposits, old gasket, old
sealer, and carbon with a scraper.
CAUTION:
Use care not to allow gasket debris to enter passages for oil
or water.
2. At each of several locations on bottom surface of cylinder head, measure distortion in six directi ons using suitable tools (A, B).
• If measurements exceed the limit, replace cylinder head.
VALVE DIMENSIONS
Check dimensions of each valve. Refer to EM-111, "Standard and Limit".
VALVE GUIDE CLEARANCE
• Measure diameter of valve stem using suitable tool (A) as shown.
• Measure inner diameter of valve guide with a bore gauge as shown.
• Valve guide clearance = (Valve guide inner diameter) - (Valve stem diameter)
• If it exceeds the limit, replace valve guide and/or va lve. When valve guide must be replaced, follow the
"VALVE GUIDE REPLACEMENT" procedure.
VALVE GUIDE REPLACEMENT
When valve guide is removed, replace with oversized (0.2 mm, 0.008 in) valve guide.
1. To remove valve guide, heat cylinder head to 110 ° to 130 °C
(230 ° to 266 °F) by soaking in heated oil.
WARNING:
Cylinder head contains heat. Wh en working, wear protective
equipment to avoid getting burned. Limit : 0.1 mm (0.004 in)

After confirming that the dimensions of valve guides and valves are
within specifications, perform this procedure:
• Apply prussian blue (or white lead) onto contacting surface of valve
seat to check the condition of t he valve contact on the seat sur-
face.
• Check if the contact area band is continuous all around the circum-
ference.
• If not, grind to adjust valve fitti ng and check again. If the contacting
surface still has NG conditions even after the re-check, replace the
valve seat.
VALVE SEAT REPLACEMENT
NOTE:
When valve seat is removed, replace with an oversized [0.5 mm (0.020 in)] valve seat.
1. Bore out old seat until it collapses. Boring shoul d not continue beyond the bottom face of the seat recess
in the cylinder head. Set the machine depth stop to ensure this.
2. Ream cylinder head recess diameter for service valve seat.
• Be sure to ream in circles concentric to the valve guide center.This will enable the valve seat to fit correctly.
3. Heat cylinder head to 110 ° to 130 °C (230 ° to 266 °F) by soaking
in heated oil.
WARNING:
Cylinder head contains heat . When working, wear protec-
tive equipment to avo id getting burned.
4. Use valve seats cooled well with dry ice. Force fit valve seat into cylinder head. CAUTION:
Avoid directly touching the cold valve seats.
5. Finish the seat to the specified dimensions using suitable tool. Refer to EM-111, "Standard and Limit"
.
CAUTION:
When using valve seat cutter, firmly grip the cutter handle
with both hands. Then, press on the contacting surface all
around the circumference to cu t in a single drive. Improper
pressure on the cutter or cutting many different times may
result in a defective valve seat.
6. Using compound, grind to adjust valve fitting.
7. Check again for normal contact.
