NOTICE:
^ The lock nut has LH threads.
^ Never use any tool other than the socket wrench. Other tools will deform the cam angle rotor.
37. INSTALL NO.2 CAMSHAFT
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, damage to the cylinder head or to the camshaft may result. To avoid this, the following steps should be carried out.

Seal packing: Part No. 08826-00080 or equivalent
NOTICE:
^ Install the No. 1 bearing cap within 5 minutes after applying seal packing.
^ Do not expose the seal to engine oil within 2 hours after installing.
g. Install the 5 bearing caps in their proper locations.
h. Apply a light coat of engine oil on the threads of the bearing cap bolts
i. Using several steps, tighten the 10 bearing cap bolts uniformly in the sequence shown in the illustration.
Torque: 16 Nm (163 kgf-cm, 12 ft. lbs.)
38. INSTALL CAMSHAFT
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, damage to the cylinder head or to the camshaft may result. To avoid this, the following steps should be carried out.
