9. REMOVE CYLINDER HEAD GASKET |
10. INSPECT CYLINDER HEAD SET BOLT |

Using a vernier caliper, measure the length of the cylinder head set bolt from the seat to the end.
- Standard length:
- 141.3 to 142.7 mm (5.56 to 5.62 in.)
- Maximum length:
- 143.7 mm (5.66 in.)
*1 | Measurement Length |
*2 | Distance |
If the length is more than the maximum, replace the cylinder head set bolt.
Using a vernier caliper, measure the diameter of the elongated threads around the point indicated in the illustration.
- Distance:
Item Specified Condition Intake side bolt 103 mm (4.06 in.) Exhaust side bolt 108 mm (4.25 in.)
- Standard diameter:
- 10.85 to 11.00 mm (0.427 to 0.433 in.)
- Minimum diameter:
- 10.60 mm (0.417 in.)
If the diameter is less than the minimum, replace the cylinder head set bolt.
- HINT:
- If a visual check reveals no excessively thin areas, check the area of the bolt around the point indicated in the illustration and find the area that has the smallest diameter.
11. INSPECT CYLINDER HEAD SUB-ASSEMBLY |

Using a precision straightedge and feeler gauge, measure the warpage of the contact surfaces of the cylinder block and manifold.
- Standard Warpage:
Item Specified Condition Cylinder block side 0.05 mm (0.00197 in.) Intake manifold side 0.08 mm (0.00315 in.) Exhaust manifold side 0.05 mm (0.00197 in.)
- Maximum warpage:
- 0.10 mm (0.00394 in.)
*a | for Cylinder Block Side |
*b | for Intake Manifold Side |
*c | for Exhaust Manifold Side |
If the warpage is more than the maximum, replace the cylinder head sub-assembly.
Using a dye penetrant, check the intake ports, exhaust ports and cylinder head surface for cracks.
If cracked, replace the cylinder head sub-assembly.
