63. NOTICE: The front camshaft bearing mega cap must be removed first and then the remaining camshaft bearing caps. Failure to follow this direction may result in damage to the engine.
Remove the 4 bolts and the RH front camshaft bearing mega cap.
64. Remove the 16 bolts and the 8 camshaft bearing caps.
65. NOTE: Intake camshaft shown, exhaust camshaft similar.
Remove the VCT system oil filter from the intake and exhaust camshafts.
66. Remove the RH intake and exhaust camshafts.
67. Remove the 16 camshaft roller follower and hydraulic lash adjuster assemblies.
68. Remove the bolt and the coolant outlet pipe from the RH cylinder head.
- Remove and discard the O-ring seal.
69. Remove the CHT sensor.
70. NOTICE: The cylinder head must be cool before removing it from the engine. Cylinder head warpage can result if a warm or hot cylinder head is removed.
NOTICE: Place clean shop towels over exposed engine cavities. Carefully remove the towels so foreign material is not dropped into the engine.
NOTICE: The cylinder head bolts must be discarded and new bolts must be installed. They are a tighten-to-yield design and cannot be reused.
NOTICE: Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes, power abrasive discs or other abrasive means to clean the sealing surfaces. These tools cause scratches and gouges that make leak paths. Use a plastic scraping tool to remove all traces of the head gasket.
NOTICE: Aluminum surfaces are soft and can be scratched easily. Never place the cylinder head gasket surface, unprotected, on a bench surface.
Remove the 10 bolts and the RH cylinder head.
- Discard the bolts and the cylinder head gasket.
71. NOTICE: Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes, power abrasive discs or other abrasive means to clean the sealing surfaces. These tools cause scratches and gouges that make leak paths. Use a plastic scraping tool to remove all traces of the head gasket.
NOTE: Observe all warnings or notices and follow all application directions contained on the packaging of the silicone gasket remover and the metal surface prep.
NOTE: If there is no residual gasket material present, metal surface prep can be used to clean and prepare the surfaces.
Clean the cylinder head-to-cylinder block mating surfaces of both the cylinder head and the cylinder block in the following sequence.
1. Remove any large deposits of silicone or gasket material with a plastic scraper.
2. Apply silicone gasket remover, following package directions and allow to set for several minutes.
3. Remove the silicone gasket remover with a plastic scraper. A second application of silicone gasket remover may be required if residual traces of silicone or gasket material remain.
4. Apply metal surface prep, following package directions, to remove any remaining traces of oil or coolant and to prepare the surfaces to bond with the new gasket. Do not attempt to make the metal shiny. Some staining of the metal surfaces is normal.
72. NOTE: Make sure all cylinder head surfaces are clear of any gasket material, RTV, oil and coolant. The cylinder head surface must be clean and dry before running a flatness check.
NOTE: Use a straightedge that is calibrated by the manufacturer to be flat within 0.005 mm (0.0002 in) per running foot length. For example, if the straightedge is 61 cm (24 in) long, the machined edge must be flat within 0.010 mm (0.0004 in) from end to end.
Support the cylinder head on a bench with the head gasket side up. Check the cylinder head distortion and the cylinder block distortion, paying particular attention to the oil pressure feed area.
73. Using the crankshaft holding tool, rotate the crankshaft counterclockwise until the crankshaft keyway is at the 9 o'clock position.
74. Remove the 2 bolts and the LH primary timing chain tensioner.
75. NOTE: It may be necessary to rotate the crankshaft slightly to provide enough slack in the chain to remove the LH timing chain tensioner arm. Return the crankshaft keyway to the 9 o'clock position after removing the LH timing chain tensioner arm.
Remove the LH timing chain tensioner arm.
76. NOTE: It may be necessary to rotate the crankshaft slightly to provide enough slack in the chain to remove the LH timing chain guide. Return the crankshaft keyway to the 9 o'clock position after removing the LH timing chain guide.
Remove the bolt and the LH timing chain guide.
77. Remove the LH primary timing chain.
78. Remove the crankshaft sprocket.
79. Remove the 3 LH intake Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT) assembly bolts and the 3 LH exhaust VCT assembly bolts.
80. Slide the LH VCT assemblies and secondary timing chain forward 2 mm (0.078 in).
81. Depress the LH secondary timing chain tensioner and turn the tensioner 90 degrees.
82. Remove the LH VCT assemblies and the LH secondary timing chain.
83. NOTICE: The front camshaft bearing mega cap must be removed first and then the remaining camshaft bearing caps. Failure to follow this direction may result in damage to the engine.
Remove the 4 bolts and the LH front camshaft bearing mega cap.
