Removal and Installation
IThis engine will have a different valve arrangement from nor-
mal DOHC 4-valve type engines. As both camshafts on this
engine have intake and exhaust cams, in this chapter they are
named as follows:
Camshaft (Right side): Intake manifold side camshaft
Camshaft (Left side): Exhaust manifold side camshaft
IThe same parts are used for the right and left sides.
IRefer to the figure for intake and exhaust valve arrangement.
(The camshafts have, alternately, either an intake valve or an
exhaust valve.)
Removal
1. Set the No. 1 cylinder at TDC, then remove the chain case,
timing chain and other parts in connection. Refer to ªTIMING
CHAINº, EM-26.
2. Remove the cam gear.
ILoosen the cam gear installation bolt by fixing the hexagonal
portion of the camshaft.

CAMSHAFT BRACKET INNER DIAMETER
IInstall camshaft bracket and tighten bolts to the specified
torque.
IMeasure inner diameter of camshaft bracket using an inside
micrometer.
Standard: 30.000 - 30.021 mm (1.1811 - 1.1819 in) dia.
CAMSHAFT OIL CLEARANCE CALCULATIONS
Oil clearance = Cam bracket inner diameter þ Cam journal outer
diameter
Standard: 0.045 - 0.090 mm (0.0018 - 0.0035 in) dia.
IIf it exceeds the standard value, refer to the standard value of
each unit, then replace the camshaft and/or cylinder head.
IAs the camshaft bracket is manufactured with the cylinder
head, it is impossible to replace only the camshaft bracket.
CAMSHAFT END PLAY
ISet the dial gauge to the front end of the camshaft. Measure
the end play by moving the camshaft in the direction of the axle.
Standard: 0.065 - 0.169 mm (0.0026 - 0.0067 in)
