- Rotate the camshaft until the dowel pin on its front end is located as shown in the illustration.NOTE: Placing the camshaft in the illustrated position minimizes the amount of cam lift, making it easier to install the rocker arm and shaft assembly.
- Temporarily tighten the rocker shaft with the bolts so that all rocker arms on the inlet valve side do not push the valves.
- Position the rocker shaft spring so that it takes a right angle against the plug guide.NOTE: Set the rocker shaft spring before installing the rocker arm and shaft assembly on the exhaust side.
- Tighten the rocker arm and shaft assembly mounting bolts to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 31 +/- 3 N.m (23 +/- 2 ft-lb)
