  1. CAUTION: Prior to installing the camshafts, position the crankshaft 45 degrees ATDC cylinder 1A to prevent valve/piston collision.
    NOTE: Lubricate the camshafts and the camshaft bearing caps with clean engine oil prior to installation.

      Torque  : 12Nm 

    • The valve clearances must be checked in the next step.
  3. CAUTION: Only rotate the crankshaft clockwise.

    Rotate the crankshaft until the camshaft lobe on the valve being checked is 180 degrees from the maximum opening position.

  4. NOTE: If the valve clearance is incorrect, continue to the next step. If the valve clearance is correct, continue to step  8.

    Using a suitable feeler gauge, check the gap between the tappet and the camshaft lobe and check against the specifications table.

    Refer to: SPECIFICATIONS .

  5. CAUTION: Do not use a magnet to remove the tappet.
    • Remove the tappet and measure the thickness.
    • Use the following formula to calculate the required tappet thickness. Original thickness + measured clearance - desired clearance = required tappet thickness.
  6. NOTE: If a new tappet is installed then go back to step  1 of the install procedure.

    Install a new tappet if required.

  7. Using a suitable feeler gauge, check the gap between the tappet and the camshaft lobe and check against the specifications table.

    Refer to: SPECIFICATIONS .
