(5) Tighten each bolt to the specified torque in the
sequence explained in step (4) .
2) Installation of intake camshaft
Each intake and exhaust camshaft gear has match
marks at two places . Accordingly, if the match marks
are incorrectly aligned, the cam timing will be mis-
aligned by 180° between the intake side and exhaust
side. To avoid this, be sure to use the following method
when assembling the camshafts.
(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) Align the intake camshaft match mark with the
match mark of the exhaust camshaft which is already
installed . In this case, make sure that the notch on the
front end of the intake camshaft and that of the
exhaust camshaft are facing the same direction (fac-
ing downward) . After that, install the three camshaft
caps at the specified positions, and fully hand-tighten
the bolts.
Be sure to hold the camshaft with one hand so that it
will not drop while installing the camshaft caps .
