• Prevent splashing by using a shop cloth to prevent engine oil from being splashed to engine and

vehicle. Especially, be careful no to apply engine oil to rubber parts of drive belt, engine mount-
ing insulator, etc. Wipe engine oil off immediately if it is splashed.

5.

Perform the following inspection if engine oil does not come out from intake valve timing control solenoid
valve oil hole of the cylinder head.
• Remove oil filter, and then clean it. Refer to 

EM-48, "Exploded View"

 or/and 

EM-83, "Exploded View"

.

• Clean oil groove between oil strainer and intake valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to 

LU-2,

"Engine Lubrication System"

.

6.

Remove components between intake valve timing control solenoid valve and camshaft sprocket (INT),
and then check each oil groove for clogging.
• Clean oil groove if necessary. Refer to 

LU-2, "Engine Lubrication System"

.

7.

After inspection, install removed parts in the reverse order.

Inspection for Leakage

The following are procedures for checking fluid leakage, lubricant leakage.

• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If any are less than the

required quantity, fill them to the specified level. Refer to 

MA-10, "Fluids and Lubricants"

.

• Follow the procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
- Turn ignition switch to the “ON” position (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping,

check for fuel leakage at connection points.

- Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.

NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside chain tensioner drops after removal/installation, slack in guide may generate a
pounding noise during and just after the engine start. However, this does not indicate a malfunction. The
noise will stop after hydraulic pressure rises.

• Warm up engine thoroughly to check that there is no leakage of fuel, or any oil/fluids including engine oil and

engine coolant.

• Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill them to

the specified level, if necessary.

Summary of the inspection items:

* Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.
