PROCEDURE


  1. INSTALL CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE VALVE LIFT CONTROLLER ASSEMBLY


    1. A01GAAEC01
      *1 Connector
      *a Protruding Distance

      Measure the protruding distance of the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly.

      Tech Tips


      • When reinstalling the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly, perform the measurement after the valve lift control actuator connector is installed.

      • It is not necessary to perform this measurement when installing a new continuously variable valve lift controller assembly as the protruding distance is 34.57 to 34.73 mm (1.36 to 1.37 in.).

        Standard protruding distance
        34.57 to 34.73 mm (1.36 to 1.37 in.)

        If the protruding distance of the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly is not 34.57 to 34.73 mm (1.36 to 1.37 in.), perform the Active Test and adjust the protruding distance to the specified value.

    2. A01GCY0C02
      *1 Protrusion
      *2 New O-Ring

      Install a new O-ring to the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly.

      Note


      • Align the protrusion of the O-ring with the protrusion of the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly.

      • Make sure that the O-ring is not protruding from the groove in the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly.

    3. A01GDH1

      Rotate the crankshaft clockwise to retract the valve rocker shaft.

    4. A01GB40C02
      *a No. 3 Cylinder
      *b No. 1 Cylinder

      Rotate the crankshaft clockwise again until the intake camshaft position at the No. 1 cylinder and No. 3 cylinder is as shown in the illustration.

    5. A01GAOC

      Install the valve lift control actuator connector clip to the valve lift control actuator connector.

      Note

      Be sure to insert the protrusions of the valve lift control actuator connector clip into the holes in the valve lift control actuator connector.

      Tech Tips

      When the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly is new, a valve lift control actuator connector is attached to it. Remove the valve lift control actuator connector before performing these procedures.

    6. A01GAX5

      Install the valve lift control actuator connector to the valve rocker shaft.

    7. Insert the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly into the camshaft housing sub-assembly.

    8. Place the wire harness clamp bracket onto the stud bolts.

    9. Install the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly to the camshaft housing with the bolt and 2 nuts.

      Torque:
      18 N*m  { 184 kgf*cm, 13 ft.*lbf }

      Note

      Make sure the O-ring is not caught between the parts.

      Tech Tips

      Perform "Inspection After Repairs" after replacing the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly.

    10. A01GA1R

      Using a screwdriver, slide the valve lift control actuator connector clip from the valve lift control actuator connector.

      Note

      Slide only the upper part of the valve lift control actuator connector clip as the straight pin falls out from the bottom if the valve lift control actuator connector clip is completely removed.

    11. A01GC11

      Using 2 screwdrivers, lightly pry the valve lift control actuator connector and align the hole in the valve lift control actuator connector with the hole in the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly.

      Note


      • Do not forcefully pry the valve lift control actuator connector.

      • Do not damage the camshaft housing sub-assembly and camshaft bearing cap.

    12. A01GB8EC02
      *1 Continuously Variable Valve Lift Controller Assembly
      *2 Valve Lift Control Actuator Connector
      *3 Valve Lift Control Actuator Connector Clip
      *4 Valve Rocker Shaft
      *5 Straight Pin

      Insert the straight pin into the valve lift control actuator connector.

      Note

      Do not use a tool to insert the straight pin. Insert the straight pin by hand.

      Tech Tips

      If the straight pin is difficult to insert, insert the pin while lightly prying the valve lift control actuator connector.

    13. A01GCK3

      Using a screwdriver, install the valve lift control actuator connector clip to the valve lift control actuator connector.

      Note

      Insert the protrusion of the valve lift control actuator connector clip into the hole in the valve lift control actuator connector.

  4. INSTALL AIR TUBE


    1. A01GC46C01
      *1 Fuel Vapor Feed Hose
      *2 Union to Connector Tube Hose
      *3 No. 2 Air Hose
      *4 No. 1 Fuel Vapor Feed Hose

      Install the air tube with the 2 bolts.

      Torque:
      10 N*m  { 102 kgf*cm, 7 ft.*lbf }

    2. Connect the No. 2 air hose and No. 1 fuel vapor feed hose.

    3. Connect the 2 union to connector tube hoses, and slide the 2 clamps to secure them.

    4. Connect the fuel vapor feed hose to the purge VSV, and slide the clamp to secure it.

  5. INSTALL IGNITION COIL ASSEMBLY


    1. Install the 4 ignition coil assemblies with the 4 bolts.
