NOTICE
The camshaft cap bolts must be tightened
evenly or damage to the cylinder head, cam-
shaft caps, and camshafts will result.
TIP
• Lubricate the camshaft cap bolt seats with the
engine oil.
• When tightening the camshaft cap, tighten the
four bolts on the both ends of the cap tempo-
rarily to lower the entire cap, while paying at-
tention not to twist the dowel pins and camshaft
journal. After the camshaft cap touches the cyl-
inder head, tighten the two bolts in the middle
to the specified torque and then the remaining
four bolts to the specified torque.
• To prevent the camshaft cap from cracking,
tighten the camshaft cap carefully by tapping
the camshaft using a soft-face hammer (both
for temporary and final tightening).
