Rocker Arm and Shaft Disassembly/Reassembly: K20Z2

NOTE:

• Identify each part as it is removed so that each item can be reinstalled.
• Inspect the rocker arm shaft and rocker arms (see ROCKER ARM AND SHAFT INSPECTION ).
• If reused, the rocker arms must be installed in the same positions.
• When removing, or installing the rocker arm assembly, do not remove the camshaft holder bolts. The bolts will keep the holders and rocker arms on the shaft.
• Prior to reassembling, clean all the parts insolvent, dry them, and apply lubricant to any contact points.
• Bundle the intake rocker arms with rubber bands to keep them together as a set.
• When replacing the intake rocker arm assembly, remove the fastening hardware from the new intake rocker arm assembly.
