Inspection and Repair

1. Use a micrometer to measure the cam lobe height

and uneven wear. Replace the camshaft if either the
lobe height or the uneven wear exceeds the specified
limit.

Lobe height : 44.709 mm (1.7602 in)
Uneven wear : 0.05 mm (0.0020 in)

014RW043

2. Use a micrometer to measure the diameter and the

uneven wear of the camshaft journals.
Replace the camshaft if the diameter or the uneven
wear exceeds the specified limit.

Journal Diameter
Standard : 25.972 mm–25.993 mm

(1.0225 in–1.0233 in)

Limit : 25.8 mm (1.0157 in)
Uneven wear : 0.05 mm (0.0020 in)

014RS023

3. Place the camshaft on V–blocks.

Slowly rotate the camshaft and measure the runout
with a dial indicator.
Replace the camshaft if the runout exceeds the
specified limit.

Runout
Limit : 0.1 mm (0.0039 in)

014RW044

4. Measure the camshaft journal oil clearance.

1. Measure the camshaft bracket housing inside

diameter.

NOTE: Tighten camshaft bracket (2) to specified torque
before measuring the camshaft bracket inside diameter.

Torque : 10 N·m (1.0 Kg·m/89 lb in)

014RW031

2. Subtract the camshaft outside diameter from the

camshaft bracket housing inside diameter.

Oil Clearance
Standard : 0.027 mm–0.078 mm

(0.0011 in–0.0031 in)

Limit : 0.11 mm (0.0043 in)

014RW037

5. Replace the cylinder head and/or camshaft if the

measured oil clearance exceeds the specified limit.
1. Carefully clean the camshaft journal, the

camshaft bracket, and the cylinder head.

2. Install camshaft assembly and camshaft brackets

(2), tighten twenty bolts (1) on one side bank to
the specified torque.

Torque: 10 N·m (1.0 Kg·m/89 lb in)

014RW031

3. Measure the camshaft thrust clearance with a dial

indicator. Replace the camshaft and/or the
cylinder head if the camshaft thrust clearance
exceeds the specified limit.

Camshaft thrust Clearance
Standard : 0.03 mm–0.08 mm

(0.0012 in.–0.0031 in.)

Reassembly

1. Install camshaft drive gear assembly and tighten

three bolts to specified torque.

Torque: 10 N·m (1.0 Kg·m/89 lb in)

2. Tighten sub gear setting bolt.

1. Use 5–8840–2443–0 to turn sub gear to right

direction until the M5 bolt hole aligns between
camshaft driven gear and sub gear.

2. Tighten M5 bolt suitable torque for prevent

moving the sub gear.

014RW041

3. Install camshaft assembly and camshaft brackets,

tighten twenty bolts on one side bank to the specified
torque.
1. Apply engine oil to camshaft journal and bearing

surface of camshaft bracket.

2. Align timing mark on intake camshaft (one dot for

right bank, two dots for left bank) and exhaust
camshaft (one dot for right bank, two dots for left
bank) to timing mark on camshaft drive gear (one
dot).
