- removal, inspection and refitting

Note: Before beginning this procedure, obtaintwo 6x1.0 mm, bolts 16 to 20 mm long. They will be referred to as service bolts in the text.

1 Refer to Section 3 and place the engine on

TDC for number 1 cylinder.

2 Remove the timing belt and camshaft sprocket (see Sections 5 and 9).

3 Measure the camshaft thrust clearance (end-float) with a dial indicator (see illustration 10.41).

If the clearance is greater than the service limit, renew the camshaft and/or the cylinder head.

4 Position the intake camshaft so that the service bolt hole in the camshaft gear is uppermost (see illustration). This will position the intake camshaft lobes so the camshaft will be pushed up evenly by valve spring pressure.

Caution: This positioning is important to avoid damaging the cylinder head or camshaft as the camshaft is removed.
