31. REMOVE CAMSHAFT

NOTICE: Since the thrust clearance of the camshaft is small, the camshaft must be kept level while it is being removed. 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.

a) Align the timing marks (2 dot marks) of the camshaft drive and the driven gears by turning the camshaft with a wrench.

b) Secure the exhaust camshaft sub-gear to the main gear with a service bolt.
Torque: 5.4 Nm (55 kgf-cm, 48 inch lbs.)

Recommended Service Bolt:

HINT: When removing the camshaft, make certain that the torsional spring force of the sub-gear has been eliminated by installation of the service bolt.

c) Using several steps, loosen and remove the 10 bearing cap bolts uniformly in the sequence shown in the illustration. Remove the 5 bearing caps and the camshaft.

NOTICE:
^ Do not pry out the camshaft.
^ Be careful not to damage the portion of the cylinder head receiving the shaft thrust.

32. REMOVE NO. 2 CAMSHAFT

a) Using several steps, loosen and remove the 10 bearing cap bolts uniformly in the sequence shown in the illustration. Remove the 5 bearing caps and the No. 2 camshaft.

NOTICE:
^ Do not pry out the camshaft.
^ Be careful not to damage the portion of the cylinder head receiving the shaft thrust.

b) Remove the oil seal from the No. 2 camshaft.
33. REMOVE CAMSHAFT TIMING GEAR ASSEMBLY

NOTICE: Do not remove or install the camshaft timing gear (VVT-i) unless you are changing the VVT-i or the camshaft.

a) Clamp the camshaft in a vise on the hexagonal lobe.

NOTICE: Be careful not to damage the camshaft.

b) Using a 46 mm socket wrench, remove the lock nut by turning it clockwise.

NOTICE:
^ Remove it with the lock-pin engaged and locked at the maximum delay angle position.
^ The lock nut has LH threads.
^ Never use any tool other than the socket wrench. Other tools will deform the cam angle rotor.

c) Remove the camshaft VVT-i.

NOTICE: Never remove the 3 bolts on the gear. If it is difficult to remove VVT-i, tap it lightly using a plastic-faced hammer and then remove it.

34. REMOVE CAMSHAFT SUB GEAR

a) Clamp the camshaft in a vise on the hexagonal lobe.

NOTICE: Be careful not to damage the camshaft.

b) Using SST, turn the sub-gear counterclockwise, and remove the service bolt.
SST 09960-10010 (09962-01000, 09963-00500)

c) Using snap ring pliers, remove the snap ring.
d) Remove the wave washer, the camshaft sub-gear and the camshaft gear bolt washer.

INSTALLATION

SST 09960-10010 (09962-01000, 09963-00500)
f) Align the gear teeth of the main gear and sub-gear, and tighten the service bolt.
Torque: 5.4 Nm (55 kgf-cm, 48 inch lbs.)

NOTICE: Be careful not to damage the camshaft journals.

HINT: When installing the camshaft, make certain that the torsional spring force of the sub-gear has been eliminated by installation of the service bolt.

2. INSTALL CAMSHAFT TIMING GEAR ASSEMBLY

a) Align the alignment pin with the alignment pin groove and install VVT-i on the camshaft.

NOTICE: Install it with the lock-pin engaged and locked at the maximum delay angle position.

b) Apply engine oil on the nut, the mounting surface of VVT-i and the screw threads.

NOTICE:

Torque: 150 Nm (1,530 kgf-cm, 111 ft. lbs.)

NOTICE: The lock nut has LH threads. Never use any tool other than the socket wrench. Other tools will deform the cam angle rotor.

3. INSTALL NO. 2 CAMSHAFT

NOTICE: Since the thrust clearance of the camshaft is small, the camshaft must be kept level while it is being removed. 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.

a) Apply new engine oil to the thrust portion and journal of the camshaft.

b) Place the No. 2 camshaft at a 90° angle of the timing mark (2 dot marks) on the cylinder head.
c) Apply MP grease to a new oil seal lip.

d) Install the oil seal to the camshaft.

NOTICE:
^ Do not turn over the oil seal lip.
^ Insert the oil seal until it stops.

e) Remove any old packing material from the contact surface.

f) Apply seal packing to the No. 1 bearing cap as shown in the illustration.
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.)
4. INSTALL CAMSHAFT

NOTICE: Since the thrust clearance of the camshaft is small, the camshaft must be kept level while it is being removed. 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.

a) Apply new engine oil to the thrust portion and journal of the camshaft.

b) Align the timing marks (2 dot marks) of the camshaft drive with the driven gears.
c) Place the camshaft on the cylinder head.

d) Install the 5 bearing caps in their proper locations.

c) When the timing belt cover gasket is needed to replace, follow the procedure below.
1) Using a screwdriver and a gasket scraper, remove the remaining gasket.

NOTICE: Be careful not to damage the timing belt cover.

2) Remove the backing paper from a new gasket, and affix the gasket along the groove of the timing belt cover as shown in the illustration.

NOTICE:
^ Affix the gasket in the center of the groove.
^ At the corners, try to keep the gasket thickness uniform.

HINT:

3) If there is a gap on the joint of the gasket, apply seal packing to close the gap.
Seal packing: Part No. 08826-00080 or equivalent

NOTICE: When applying the seal packing, apply it as wide and high as the gasket.
