the bearing cap with the 2 bolts.
Then alternately loosen and remove the 2 bearing cap bolts
with the camshaft gear pulled up.
NOTICE:
Do not pry on or attempt to force the camshaft with a tool
or other object.
(g) Uniformly loosen and remove the 8 No.3 bearing cap
bolts, in several passes, in the sequence shown.
(h) Remove the 4 bearing caps and intake camshaft.
HINT:
If the camshaft is not being lifted out straight and level, reinstall

with the camshaft gear pulled up.
NOTICE:
Do not pry on or attempt to force the camshaft with a tool
or other object.

4. INSTALL INTAKE AND EXHAUST CAMSHAFTS
NOTICE:
Since the thrust clearance of the camshaft is small, the
camshaft must be kept level while it is being installed. If the
camshaft is not kept level, the portion of the cylinder head
receiving the shaft thrust may crack or be damaged, caus-
ing the camshaft to seize or break. To avoid this, the follow-
ing steps should be carried out.
(a) Apply engine oil to the thrust portion of intake camshaft.
(b) Place the intake camshaft as shown in the illustration so
that the service bolt of the intake camshaft gears are di-
rectly above.
HINT:
This helps to lift the intake camshaft in a level and uniform man-
ner by pushing No.3 and No.4 cylinder cam lobes of the intake
camshaft toward their vale lifters.
(c) Install the 4 bearing caps in their proper locations.
(d) Temporarily tighten the bearing cap bolts uniformly and
alternately, in several passes, in the sequence shown un-
til the bearing caps are snug with the cylinder head.

(e) Apply engine oil to thrust portion of the exhaust camshaft.
(f) Engage the exhaust camshaft gear to the intake cam-
shaft gear by matching the timing marks on each gear.
NOTICE:
There are also assembly reference marks on each gear as
shown in the illustration. Do not use these marks.
(g) Roll down the exhaust camshaft onto the bearing journals
while engaging gears with each other.
HINT:
The above angle allows the No.2 and No.4 cylinder cam lobes
of the exhaust camshaft to push their valve lifters evenly.
(h) Lightly push the exhaust camshaft gear without applying
excessive force.
(i) Install the 4 bearing caps in their proper locations.
(j) Temporarily tighten the bearing cap bolts uniformly and
alternately, in several passes, in the sequence shown un-
til the bearing caps are snug with the cylinder head.
(k) Remove the service bolt.
(l) Clean the installed surfaces of the No.2 bearing cap and
cylinder head with cleaner.
(m) Apply seal packing to the No.2 bearing cap as shown.
