Since the camshaft thrust clearance is small, the cam-
shaft must be installed by holding it parallel to the
cylinder head . If the camshaft is not parallel to the
cylinder head, the cylinder head thrust bearing portion
may be damaged by the camshaft . To avoid this,
proceed as follows :
1) Installation of exhaust camshaft
(1) Apply a coat of engine oil to the hydraulic lash
adjuster surface and insert hydraulic lash adjusters .
(2) Apply a coat of engine oil to the camshaft jour-
nals.
(3) Set the exhaust camshaft on the cylinder head
with the front end notch of the camshaft facing
directly downward . Then attach three camshaft caps
to the correct positions, and fully hand-tighten the
cap bolts .
Hold the camshaft with one hand so that it will not
drop while tightening the camshaft caps.
(4) Tighten six bolts on three exhaust camshaft caps
equally, a little at a time, in the numerical sequence as
illustrated .

Make sure that, as the bolts are tightened, the clear-
ance between the camshaft journal and the cylinder
head journal bearing decreases evenly at three places.
If not, loosen the bolts by reversing the illustrated
numerical sequence, and then repeat step (4) above.
