21. INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING GEAR ASSEMBLY

Install the camshaft bearing cap ().

HINT:

Only install the intake camshaft.

Install the camshaft housing ().

HINT:

Do not use seal packing when installing the camshaft housing as the installation is temporary.

Apply a light coat of engine oil to the camshaft and camshaft timing gear.

Using the hexagonal portion of the camshaft, align the knock pin of the camshaft with the pin hole of the camshaft timing gear and install the camshaft timing gear.

Text in Illustration
*1	Knock Pin

NOTICE:

Do not forcefully push on the camshaft timing gear. This may cause the camshaft knock pin tip to damage the installation surface of the camshaft timing gear.

Do not loosen or remove the 3 bolts shown in the illustration. If any of them are loosened or removed, the backlash of the gear in the timing tube will go out of adjustment. In this case, replace the camshaft timing gear assembly with a new one.

Clean the cam journal with non-residue solvent.

Cover the 4 oil paths of the cam journal with vinyl tape as shown in the illustration.

Break through the tape over the advance side path. Then break through the tape over the retard side path on the opposite side of the advanced side path as shown in the illustration.

Apply compressed air at approximately 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/cm², 29 psi) to the two paths accessible through the holes in the tape.

Text in Illustration
*1	Advance Side Path

NOTICE:

Cover the paths with a piece of cloth when applying pressure to keep oil from splashing.

Check that the camshaft timing gear revolves in the advance direction when reducing the air pressure applied to the retard side path.

HINT:

This operation releases the lock pin which holds the timing gear in the most retarded position.

When the camshaft timing gear reaches the most advanced position, release the air pressure from the retard side path and advance side path in that order.

NOTICE:

Do not release the air pressure from the advance side path first. The gear may abruptly shift in the retard direction and break the lock pin.

Check for smooth rotation.

Turn the camshaft timing gear within its movable range (21°) 2 or 3 times, but do not turn it to the most retarded position. Make sure that the gear turns smoothly.

NOTICE:

Do not use air pressure to perform the smooth rotation check.

Check the lock at the most retarded position.

Confirm that the camshaft timing gear becomes locked at the most retarded position.

Install the camshaft bearing cap ().

HINT:

Only install the intake camshaft.

Install the camshaft housing ().

HINT:

Do not use seal packing when installing the camshaft housing as the installation is temporary.

Hold the hexagonal portion of the camshaft with a wrench and loosen the flange bolt.

22. INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING EXHAUST GEAR ASSEMBLY

Install the camshaft bearing cap ().

HINT:

Only install the exhaust camshaft.

Install the camshaft housing ().

HINT:

Do not use seal packing when installing the camshaft housing as the installation is temporary.

Apply a light coat of engine oil to the camshaft and camshaft timing exhaust gear.

Using the hexagonal portion of the camshaft, align the knock pin of the camshaft with the pin hole of the camshaft timing exhaust gear and install the camshaft timing exhaust gear.

HINT:

The lock pin is released and the camshaft timing exhaust gear turns in the retard direction.

When the camshaft timing exhaust gear moves to the most retarded position, release the air pressure from the advance side path, and then release the air pressure from the retard side path.

NOTICE:

Be sure to release the air pressure from the advance side path first. If the air pressure of the retard side path is released first, the camshaft timing exhaust gear may abruptly shift in the advance direction and break the lock pin or other parts.

Check for smooth rotation.

Turn the camshaft timing exhaust gear within its movable range (18.5°) 2 or 3 times, but do not turn it to the most advanced position. Make sure that the gear turns smoothly.

NOTICE:

When the air pressure is released from the advance side path and then from the retard side path, the gear automatically returns to the most advanced position, due to the advance assist spring operation, and locks. Gradually release the air pressure from the retard side path before performing the smooth rotation check.

Check the lock at the most advanced position.

Make sure that the camshaft timing exhaust gear becomes locked at the most advanced position.

Install the camshaft bearing cap ().

HINT:

Only install the exhaust camshaft.
