(d) Check the valve overall length.
Standard overall length:
Intake
97.60 mm (3.8425 in.)
Exhaust
98.45 mm (3.8760 in.)
Minimum overall length:
Intake
97.1 mm (3.823 in.)
Exhaust
98.0 mm (3.858 in.)
If the overall length is less than minimum, replace the
valve.
(b) Check the valve seating position.
Apply a light coat of prussian blue (or white lead) to
the valve face. Lightly press the valve against the
seat. Do not rotate valve.
(c) Check the valve face and seat for the following:
If blue appears 360
around the face, the valve is
concentric. If not, replace the valve. (e) Check the surface of the valve stem tip for wear.
If the valve stem tip is worn, resurface the tip with a
grinder or replace the valve.
NOTICE: Do not grind off more than minimum.
8. INSPECT AND CLEAN VALVE SEATS
(a) Using a 45
carbide cutter, resurface the valve seats.
Remove only enough metal to clean the seats.

steps (steps (b) and (d)).
wIf any cylinder head bolt is broken or deformed, re±
place it.
(a) Apply a light coat of engine oil on the threads and
under the heads of the cylinder head bolts.
(b) Using SST, install and uniformly tighten the 10 cylin±
der head bolts and plate washers in several passes, in
the sequence shown.
SST 09011± 38121

stem tip to assure proper fit.
± 5S±FE ENGINEENGINE MECHANICALEG1±67

B. Install exhaust camshaft
(a) Set the knock pin of the intake camshaft at 10±455
BTDC of camshaft angle.
HINT: The above angle allows the No.2 and No.4
cylinder cam lobes of the exhaust camshaft to push
their valve lifters evenly.(e) Apply a light coat of engine oil on the threads and
under the heads of the bearing cap bolts.
(f) Install and uniformly tighten the 10 bearing cap bolts
in several passes, in the sequence shown.
Torque: 19 N±m (190 kgf±cm, 14 ft±lbf)
(h) Using SST, tap in the oil seal.
SST 09223±4601 1 (d) Install the bearing caps in their proper locations.

(b) Apply MP grease to the thrust portion of the cam±
shaft.
(c) Engage the exhaust camshaft gear to the intake cam±
shaft gear by matching the timing marks on each gear.
(d) Roll down the exhaust camshaft onto the bearing
journals while engaging gears with each other.
NOTICE: There are also assembly reference marks on
each gear as shown in the Illustration. Do not use these
marks.
5. CHECK AND ADJUST VALVE CLEARANCE
(See page EG1±12)
Turn the camshaft and position the cam lobe upward,
and check and adjust the valve clearance.
Valve clearance (Cold):
Intake
0.19 ± 0.29 mm (0.007 ± 0.011 In.)
Exhaust
0.28 ± 0.38 mm (0.011 ± 0.015 In.)(e) Turn the intake camshaft clockwise or counterclockwise little
by little until the exhaust camshaft sits in
the bearing journals evenly without rocking the cam±
shaft on the bearing journals.
NOTICE: It is very important to replace the camshaft in
the bearing journals evenly while tightening bearing caps
in the subsequent steps.
(f) Install the bearing caps in their proper locations.
(g) Apply a light coat of engine oil on the threads and
under the heads of the bearing cap bolts.
(h) Install and uniformly tighten the 10 bearing cap bolts
in several passes, in the sequence shown.

(f) Lightly turn the No. 1 balance shaft by hand and meas±
ure the backlash.
HINT:
wTurn the No.1 balance shaft 4 or 5 times to
provide a steady backlash reading.
wTo prevent excessive backlash due to thrust cle±
arance, measure the backlash while pressing on
the rear of the No.1 balance shaft.
Standard backlash:
Off±vehicle
0±0.06 mm (0±0.0024 In.)
On±vehicle
0.025 ± 0.080 mm (0.0010 ± 0.0035 in.)

(g) Remove the dial gauge and the SST. (e) Set the SST and the dial indicator as shown in the
illustration.
SST 09224± 74010
HINT: Make sure that the±needle of the dial indicator is
perpendicular to the SST and that it is placed in the
middle of the third indention.(d) 1 st turn the crankshaft clockwise, and align the
groove of the No.2 balance shaft housing with the
punch mark A of the No. 1 balance shaft. (c) Check that the punch marks A and B are at the
positions on the No.1 balance shaft indicated in the
