INSPECTION
1. INSPECT VALVE LASH ADJUSTER ASSEMBLY
NOTICE:
• Keep the lash adjuster free from dirt and foreign
objects.
• Only use clean engine oil.
(a) Place the lash adjuster into a container full of engine
oil.
(b) Insert the SST's tip into the lash adjuster's plunger
and use the tip to press down on the checkball
inside the plunger.

(c) Squeeze the SST and lash adjuster together to
move the plunger up and down 5 to 6 times.
(d) Check the movement of the plunger and bleed the
air.
OK:
Plunger moves up and down.
NOTICE:
When bleeding high-pressure air from the
compression chamber, make sure that the tip of
the SST is actually pressing the checkball as
shown in the illustration. If the checkball is not
pressed, air will not bleed.
(e) After bleeding the air, remove SST. Then try to
quickly and firmly press the plunger with a finger.
OK:
Plunger is very difficult to move.
If the result is not as specified, replace the lash
adjuster.
2. INSPECT CAMSHAFT

fringe and the camshaft.
(e) Tighten the flange bolt with the camshaft timing gear
fixed in place.

(g) Release the lock pin.
(1) Cover the 4 oil paths of the cam journal with
vinyl tape as shown in the illustration.
HINT:
2 advance side paths are provided in the
groove of the camshaft. Plug one of the paths
with a rubber piece.
(2) Break through the tape of the advance side
path and the retard side path on the opposite
side to the hole of the advance side path, as
shown in the illustration.
(3) Apply approximately 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/cm
2, 28
psi) of air pressure to the two broken paths.
CAUTION:
Cover the paths with a piece of cloth when
applying pressure to keep oil from
splashing.
(4) Check that the camshaft timing gear revolves in
the advance direction when reducing the air
pressure applied to the retard side path.
HINT:
This operation releases the lock pin for the
most retarded position.
(5) When the camshaft timing gear reaches the
most advanced position, release the air
pressure from the retard side path and advance
side path, in that order.
NOTICE:
Do not release the air pressure from the
advance side path first. The gear may
abruptly shift in the retard direction and
break the lock pin.
