FUEL INJECTOR AND FUEL TUBE
• Do not reuse O-rings.
• Upper and lower O-rings are different. Be careful not to confuse them.
• Handle O-ring with bare hands. Do not wear gloves.
• Lubricate O-ring with new engine oil.
• Do not clean O-ring with solvent.
• Check that O-ring and its mating pa rt are free of foreign material.
• When installing O-ring, be careful not to scratch it with tool or fingernails. Also be careful not to
twist or stretch O-ring. If O-ring was stretc hed while it was being attached, do not insert it
quickly into fuel tube.
• Insert O-ring straight into fu el injector. Do not twist it.
3. Install fuel injector to fuel tube as follows:
a. Insert clip (3) into clip groove (F) on fuel injector (5).
• Insert clip so that protrusion (E ) of fuel injector matches cutout
(C) of clip.
CAUTION:
• Do not reuse O-rings.
• Do not reuse clip. Replace it with new one.
• Be careful to keep clip from interfering with O-ring. If interference occurs, replace O-ring.
b. Insert fuel injector into fuel tube (1) with clip attached. • Insert it while matching it to the axial center.
• Insert fuel injector so that protrusion (A) of fuel tube matches
cutout (B) of clip.
• Check that fuel tube flange (G) is securely fixed in flange fixing
groove (D) on clip.
c. Check that installation is complete by checking that fuel injector does not rotate or come off.
• Check that protrusions of fuel injectors and fuel tubes are
aligned with cutouts of clips after installation.
4. Install fuel tube and fuel injector assembly to intake manifold. CAUTION:
Be careful not to let tip of injector nozzle come in contact with other parts.
• Tighten bolts in two steps in numerical order as shown.
5. Connect fuel injector harness.
6. Install intake manifold collector. Refer to EM-146, "Removal and Installation"
.
7. Connect quick connector between fuel feed hose and fuel tube connection with the following procedure:

CAUTION:
If quick connector cap cannot be installed smoothly, quick
connector may have not been installed correctly. Check
connection again.
f. Secure fuel feed hose to clamp of quick connector cap.
8. Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Make sure there is no fuel leakage at connections as follows:
1. Apply fuel pressure to fuel lines by turning i gnition 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. WARNING:
Do not touch engine immediately after stopping as engine is extremely hot.
NOTE:
Use mirrors for checking on connections out of the direct line of sight.
• Perform procedures for “Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning” after finishing repairs. Refer to EC-
682, "Work Procedure".
• If electric throttle control actuator is replaced, perform procedures for “Idle Air Volume Learning” after
finishing repairs. Refer to EC-683, "Work Procedure"

TIMING CHAIN
a. Attach a suitable stopper pin (B) to the bank 1 (A) and bank 2
(C) timing chain tensioners (secondary) (1).
NOTE:
• Use approximately 0.5 mm (0.02 in) diameter hard metal pin
as a stopper pin.
• Removal of camshaft bracket (No. 1) is required prior to
removing the timing chain tensioner (secondary).
b. Remove camshaft sprockets (INT and EXH) bolts. • Apply paint to the timing chain and camshaft sprockets for alignment during installation.
• Secure the hexagonal portion of camshaft using a wrench to
loosen bolts.
CAUTION:
Do not loosen bolts using an ything other than the cam-
shaft hexagonal portion. Do no t apply tension to the tim-
ing chain.
c. Remove timing chain (secondary) together with camshaft sprockets. • Turn camshaft slightly to keep the chain ti ght when removing the timing chain (secondary).
• Insert 0.5 mm (0.020 in) thick metal or resin plate between tim- ing chain and timing chain tensioner plunger (guide) (E).
Remove timing chain (secondary) (2) together with camshaft
sprockets with timing chain loose from guide groove.
CAUTION:
Be careful of plunger coming off when removing timing chain (secondary). The plunger of timing
chain tensioner (secondary) moves during operatio n, which could cause the stopper pin to fall
out.
• Bank 1 shown.
d. Camshaft sprocket (INT) is two-for-one structure of sprockets for timing chain (primary) and for timing
chain (secondary).
CAUTION:
• Handle camshaft sprocket (INT) carefully to avoid any
shock to camshaft sprocket.
• Do not disassemble. [Do not loosen bolts (A) as shown].

4. After confirming the mating marks are aligned, tighten the cam-
shaft sprocket bolts.
• Secure the camshaft using a wrench at the hexagonal portion
to tighten the bolts.
5. Pull the stopper pins out from the secondary timing chain ten- sioners.
6. Install the crankshaft sprocket on the crankshaft. • Make sure the mating marks on the crankshaft sprocket facethe front of the engine.
7. Install the primary timing chain. • Install primary timing chain so the mating mark (punched) (B)
on camshaft sprocket (C) is aligned with the pink link (A) on
the timing chain, while the mating mark (notched) (E) on the
crankshaft sprocket (D) is aligned with the orange one (F) on
the timing chain, as shown.
• When it is difficult to align mating marks of the primary timing chain with each sprocket, gradually turn the camshaft using a
wrench on the hexagonal portion to align it with the mating
marks.
• During alignment, be careful to prevent dislocation of mating
mark alignments of the secondary timing chains.
