REMOVAL SERVICE POINTS



<<A>> INLET OIL PIPE ASSEMBLY/CAMSHAFT BEARING LEFT CAP/CAMSHAFT BEARING FRONT CAP/CAMSHAFT BEARING REAR CAP REMOVAL (INLET SIDE)


caution
  • When removing the inlet oil pipe assembly, loosen the mounting bolt while holding the inlet oil pipe assembly to prevent the pipe from being bent.
  • When the camshaft bearing cap mounting bolts are loosened at once, the mounting bolts jump out by the spring force and the threads are damaged. Always loosen the mounting bolts in four or five steps.

Loosen the camshaft bearing cap mounting bolts in the order of number shown in the figure in four or five steps, and remove the camshaft bearing caps.

<<B>> ROCKER ARM AND SHAFT ASSEMBLY REMOVAL


caution Never disassemble the rocker arm and shaft assembly.

<<C>> VALVE SPRING RETAINER LOCK REMOVAL



1.Screw in special tool retainer holder attachment (MB992090) to special tool valve spring compressor (MD998772), and assemble special tool retainer holder D (MB992283).
2.
caution When removing the valve spring retainer lock, leave the piston of the 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.
Install special tool MD998772 (with special tools MB992090 and MB992283 attached) to the cylinder head and compress the valve spring. Then, remove the valve spring retainer lock.

<<D>> VALVE STEM SEAL REMOVAL



Use special tool valve stem seal pliers (MB992085) to nip the base of the stem seal (where the outside diameter is larger) securely, and remove it by twisting it to the left and right.

<<E>> EXHAUST ROCKER ARM ASSEMBLY REMOVAL



1.Mount the special tool installer inlet ring (MH062687) to the crankshaft, and set the No. 1 cylinder top dead centre of its compression stroke.

2.Loosen the adjust screws of the No. 1 and No. 3 exhaust rocker arm assemblies shown in the figure.
3.Remove the exhaust rocker arm assembly.
4.Set cylinder No. 4 to the top dead centre of compression stroke.

5.Loosen the adjusting screws of the No.2 and No.4 exhaust rocker arm assemblies shown in the figure.
6.Slide the spherical surface of the adjusting screw from the pivot bolt, and remove the exhaust rocker arm assembly.



7.Remove the No. 4 exhaust rocker arm assembly as follows.
(1) Turn the crankshaft clockwise from the No. 4 cylinder top dead centre of its compression stroke by 180°. With this status, the cam nose faces upward.
(2) Loosen the adjusting screw of the exhaust rocker arm assembly.
(3) Screw in special tool retainer holder attachment (MB992090) to special tool valve spring compressor (MD998772), and assemble special tool retainer holder D (MB992283).
(4)
caution Note that the valve may fall into the cylinder when the retainer lock comes off because the piston is not in the TDC position.
Install special tool MD998772 (with special tools MB992090 and MB992283 attached) to the cylinder head, and compress the valve spring while avoiding the rocker arm.
(5) Remove the exhaust rocker arm assembly from the gap between the cam and the cylinder inner surface.

INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS



>>A<< VALVE STEM SEAL (EXHAUST SIDE) INSTALLATION



1.
caution Valve stem seal for inlet valves and for exhaust valves are different. Be sure to install the correct ones.

  • Identification colour.

    • Exhaust valve stem seal: Green
Apply an adequate and minimum amount of engine oil to the valve stem seal.

2.
caution
  • Valve stem seal cannot be reused.
  • Special tool valve stem seal installer (MD998775) must be used to install the valve stem seal. Improper installation could result in oil leaking past the valve guide.
Use special tool valve stem seal installer (MD998775) to fill a new valve stem seal in the valve guide using the valve stem area as a guide.
Driving amount of exhaust valve stem seal: 19.8 mm

>>B<< VALVE SPRING INSTALLATION



Install the valve spring with its identification colour painted end facing the locker arm.
Identification colour
    Inlet: Blue
    Exhaust: Nothing

>>C<< VALVE SPRING RETAINER LOCK INSTALLATION



In the same manner as removal, use special tool valve spring compressor (MD998772) with special tool retainer holder attachment (MB992090) and special tool retainer holder D (MB992283) attached to compress the valve spring, and install the valve spring retainer lock.

>>D<< EXHAUST ROCKER ARM ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION





In the same removal manner as No. 4 exhaust rocker arm assembly shown in the figure, using the special tool valve spring compressor (MD998772) to which the special tool retainer holder attachment (MB992090) and special tool retainer holder D (MB992283) are assembled, compress the valve spring and install the exhaust rocker arm.

>>E<< VALVE STEM SEAL (INLET SIDE) INSTALLATION



1.
caution Valve stem seal for inlet valves and for exhaust valves are different. Be sure to install the correct ones.

  • Identification colour.

    • Inlet valve stem seal: Grey
Apply an adequate and minimum amount of engine oil to the valve stem seal.

2.
caution
  • Valve stem seal cannot be reused.
  • Special tool valve stem seal installer (MB992284) must be used to install the valve stem seal. Improper installation could result in oil leaking past the valve guide.
Use special tool valve stem seal installer (MB992284) to fill a new valve stem seal in the valve guide using the valve stem area as a guide.
Driving amount of inlet valve stem seal: 18.6 mm

>>F<< ROCKER ARM AND SHAFT ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION



1.Install the rocker arm and shaft assembly so that the Φ5.0 mm holes of rocker arm shaft face the cylinder head side.
2.Check that the identification marks on the rocker arm and shaft assembly are on the position shown in the figure.
3.Tighten the rocker arm and shaft mounting bolts to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 31 ± 3 N·m

>>G<< CAMSHAFT BEARING REAR CAP/CAMSHAFT BEARING FRONT CAP/CAMSHAFT BEARING LEFT CAP INSTALLATION (INLET SIDE)


1.Completely remove the sealant adhered to camshaft bearing rear cap and the cylinder head installation side of the camshaft bearing rear cap, and degrease them with the volatile degreasing agent.

2.
caution
  • Remove the excessive sealant at the supply pump assembly mounting hole and the vacuum pump assembly mounting hole using a rag or the like.
  • After the installation, until a sufficient period of time (one hour or more) elapses, do not apply the engine oil or water to the sealant application area or start the engine.
Apply the sealant with a diameter of 2 mm to the camshaft bearing rear cap as shown in the figure.
Specified sealant: ThreeBond 1217G or equivalent
note Install the camshaft bearing rear cap immediately after applying sealant.


3.Install the camshaft bearing caps to the cylinder head.
note Because the camshaft bearing thrust cap and camshaft bearing cap are the same in shape, check the bearing cap number and additionally its symbol to identify the inlet and exhaust sides for correct installation.
4.Tighten each camshaft bearing cap mounting bolt to the specified torque in the order of number shown in the figure in two or three steps.

    Tightening torque:

      M6: 11 ± 1 N·m
      M8: 20 ± 1 N·m
