Installation procedure

Inspection: Camshaft gear-to-camshaft interference

• If the measurement is not within the standard value range, re-
place the defective part(s).

Inspection: Camshaft

(1) Cam lift

• Replace the camshaft if the difference between the cam lobe
height and base circle diameter measurements is less than the
specified limit.
• The cams for the long rockers (L) are different from the cams for
the short rockers (S).

(2) Bend

• Place supports under the journals at the ends of the camshaft
and measure the bend of the camshaft at the central journal.
• The amount of camshaft bend is obtained by giving the camshaft
one turn and dividing the dial gauge reading by two.
• If the measurement exceeds the specified limit, replace the cam-
shaft.
Installation: Camshaft gears
• Heat the camshaft gears to approximately 150°C with a gas
burner.
WARNING
• You may burn yourself if you touch the heated gear.
• Install the camshaft gear on the camshaft with a mating mark
("R" or "L") facing in the illustrated direction.
• Press the gear until its end comes in close contact with the
flange on the camshaft.
