INSTALL SPARK PLUG TUBE
Tech Tips
When using a new cylinder head sub-assembly, the spark plug tubes must be replaced.
| *a | Adhesive |
| *b | Application Width |
| *c | Distance |
Apply adhesive to a new spark plug tube as shown in the illustration.
| Adhesive |
|---|
| Toyota Genuine Adhesive 1324, Three Bond 1324 or equivalent |
| Standard Application Width |
|---|
| 1.0 to 3.0 mm (0.0394 to 0.118 in.) |
| Distance |
|---|
| 1.0 to 7.0 mm (0.0394 to 0.276 in.) |
Note
Install the spark plug tube within 3 minutes of applying adhesive.
Be careful not to deform the spark plug tube.
Do not expose the spark plug tube to engine oil for at least 1 hour after installing it.
| *a | Protrusion Height |
Using a wooden block and hammer, tap in the spark plug tube to the specified protrusion height.
| Standard Protrusion Height |
|---|
| 112 mm (4.41 in.) |
Note
To avoid tapping in the spark plug tube too far, measure the protrusion height while tapping it.
INSTALL CYLINDER HEAD STUD BOLT
Using an E8 and E10 "TORX" socket wrench, install the 9 cylinder head stud bolts.
| *a | Intake Manifold Side | *b | Exhaust Manifold Converter Sub-assembly (TWC: Front Catalyst) Side |
| *c | Rear Side | *d | 26 mm (1.02 in.) |
| *e | 16.7 mm (0.657 in.) | *f | 51.7 mm (2.04 in.) |
| *g | 14 mm (0.551 in.) | *h | 13 mm (0.512 in.) |
| *i | 29 mm (1.14 in.) | - | - |
INSTALL NO. 1 STRAIGHT SCREW PLUG
Using a 10 mm hexagon wrench, install 3 new gaskets and the 3 No. 1 straight screw plugs.
INSTALL NO. 2 STRAIGHT SCREW PLUG
Using a 14 mm hexagon wrench, install a new gasket and the No. 2 straight screw plug.
INSTALL VALVE SPRING SEAT
Install the valve spring seats to the cylinder head sub-assembly.
INSTALL VALVE STEM OIL SEAL
| *a | Intake Valve Stem Oil Seal |
| *b | Exhaust Valve Stem Oil Seal |
| *c | Brown |
| *d | Gray |
| *e | "NOK" Mark |
Apply a light coat of engine oil to new valve stem oil seals.
Note
Pay attention when installing the valve stem oil seals. For example, installing an intake valve stem oil seal onto the exhaust side or installing an exhaust valve stem oil seal onto the intake side can cause installation problems later.
Tech Tips
The intake valve stem oil seals are brown and the exhaust valve stem oil seals are gray.
| *a | Correct |
| *b | Incorrect |
Using SST, push in the valve stem oil seals.
Note
Failure to use SST will cause the valve stem oil seal to be damaged or improperly seated.
INSTALL INTAKE VALVE
| *a | 30 mm (1.18 in.) or more |
Sufficiently apply engine oil to the tip area of the intake valve shown in the illustration.
Install the intake valve, compression spring and valve spring retainer to the cylinder head sub-assembly.
Note
Install the same parts in the same combination to their original locations.
Using SST, compress the compression spring and install the 2 valve spring retainer locks.
Using a plastic hammer, lightly tap the valve stem tip to ensure a proper fit.
Note
Be careful not to damage the valve spring retainer.
INSTALL EXHAUST VALVE
| *a | 30 mm (1.18 in.) or more |
Sufficiently apply engine oil to the tip area of the exhaust valve shown in the illustration.
Install the exhaust valve, compression spring and valve spring retainer to the cylinder head sub-assembly.
Note
Install the same parts in the same combination to their original locations.
Using SST, compress the compression spring and install the 2 valve spring retainer locks.
Using a plastic hammer, lightly tap the valve stem tip to ensure a proper fit.
Note
Be careful not to damage the valve spring retainer.
