REMOVAL SERVICE POINTS



<<A>> CAMSHAFT SPROCKET REMOVAL



1.Use the following special tools to hold the camshaft sprocket.

  • Front hub and flange yoke holder (MB990767)
  • Pin (MD998719)
2.Loosen the camshaft sprocket mounting bolt and remove the camshaft sprocket.

<<B>> FRONT LEFT CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP/LEFT CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP/FRONT RIGHT CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP/RIGHT CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP REMOVAL



Loosen the mounting bolts of the front camshaft bearing cap and of the camshaft bearing cap in the order shown in the figure. Then, remove the front camshaft bearing cap and the camshaft bearing cap.

<<C>> VALVE SPRING RETAINER LOCK REMOVAL


caution When removing valve spring retainer lock, leave the piston of each cylinder in the TDC (Top Dead Centre) position. The valve may fall into the cylinder if the piston is not properly in the TDC position.

Use special tool valve spring compressor (MD998772) to compress the valve spring and then remove the valve spring retainer lock.

INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS



>>A<< VALVE STEM SEAL INSTALLATION


1.Apply a small amount of engine oil to the valve stem seal.

2.
caution
  • Do not re-use the valve stem seal.
  • Special tool valve stem seal installer (MB991999) must be used to install the valve stem seal. Improper installation could result in oil leaking past the valve guide.
Use the special tool valve stem seal installer (MB991999) to fill a new valve stem seal in the valve guide using the valve stem area as a guide.

>>B<< VALVE SPRING RETAINER LOCK INSTALLATION



Use special tool valve spring compressor (MD998772) to compress the valve spring and then install the valve spring retainer lock in the same manner as removal.

>>C<< STEM END CAP INSTALLATION



Install the stem end cap. Make sure that the stem end cap is in close contact with the stem end faces of the inlet and exhaust valve.

>>D<< ADJUSTING SCREW/NUT/ROCKER ARM ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION



1.Screw the adjusting screw into the rocker arm assembly, and then temporarily assemble using a nut so that the adjusting screw protrusion becomes the dimension shown in the figure.
2.Apply the engine oil to the sliding surface of the parts below.

  • Roller and valve-side sliding area of the rocker arm assembly
  • Concave spherical surface of pivot bolt or spherical surface of adjusting screw

3.Place the rocker arm assembly onto the pivot bolt and the stem end cap as shown in the figure.

>>E<< EXHAUST CAMSHAFT ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION


1.Apply the engine oil to the cam face, journal section, thrust face, and gear teeth face of exhaust camshaft.

2.Set the timing mark of the exhaust camshaft in the position shown in the figure.

>>F<< RIGHT CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP/O-RING/EXHAUST OIL PIPE ASSEMBLY/FRONT RIGHT CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP INSTALLATION


1.Place the right camshaft bearing cap onto the camshaft journal section.
2.Apply the engine oil to the O-ring section of exhaust oil pipe assembly, and insert the tip of exhaust oil pipe assembly into the cylinder head. Then, place the pipe section onto the right camshaft bearing cap.

3.Tighten the mounting bolts of the right camshaft bearing cap and of the front right camshaft bearing cap to the specified torque in the order shown in the figure. Then, fix the right camshaft bearing cap, exhaust oil pipe assembly, and front right camshaft bearing cap to the cylinder head.
Tightening torque:

    11 ± 1 N·m (Right camshaft bearing cap mounting bolts)
    20 ± 1 N·m (Front right camshaft bearing cap mounting bolts)

>>G<< INLET CAMSHAFT/DOWEL PIN/C-SPRING/SUB GEAR/WAVE WASHER/SNAP RING INSTALLATION



1.Fix the inlet camshaft hexagonal area using a vice or other devices.

2.Press fit the dowel pin into the inlet camshaft and sub gear so that the dimension becomes as shown in the figure.

3.After contacting the C-spring with the dowel pin as shown in the figure, set to the inlet camshaft.

4.Set the sub gear to the inlet camshaft so that the sub gear dowel pin is inside the A range between the C-spring and inlet camshaft dowel pin as shown in the figure.
5.Assemble the wave washer and the snap ring to the inlet camshaft.

>>H<< INLET CAMSHAFT ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION



1.Fix the hexagonal area of inlet camshaft assembly using a vice or other devices.

2.
caution Avoid turning the sub gear than necessary.
Set the flange bolts (M6 x 20) to 2 locations of sub gear. Then, using a screwdriver, turn the sub gear clockwise until the sub gear hole (M8) and the threaded hole (M6) of inlet camshaft gear match as shown in the figure.

3.Temporarily fix the sub gear using the bolt (M6 x 20). At this time, screw in until the bolt head is in contact with the sub gear.
4.Remove the 2 flange bolts (M6 x 20) installed in the step 2.
5.Remove from the vice or other devices the inlet camshaft assembly to which the sub gear being temporarily fixed. Then, apply the engine oil to the cam face, journal section, thrust face, and gear teeth face of inlet camshaft assembly.

6.Set the timing mark of the inlet camshaft assembly and exhaust camshaft in the position shown in the illustration.

>>I<< LEFT CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP/O-RING/INLET OIL PIPE ASSEMBLY/FRONT LEFT CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP INSTALLATION


1.Place the left camshaft bearing cap onto the camshaft journal.
2.Apply the engine oil to the O-ring of the inlet oil pipe assembly, and insert the tip of the inlet oil pipe assembly into the cylinder head. Then, place the pipe onto the left camshaft bearing cap.

3.Apply specified sealant to the matching area of the cylinder head assembly and the front left camshaft bearing cap as shown, and install the left camshaft bearing cap to the cylinder head assembly within 3 minutes.
Specified sealant: 3M ATD Part No.8660 or equivalent
