      Seal Packing
      Toyota Genuine Seal Packing Black, Three Bond 1207B or equivalent
      Standard Seal Dimension
      3.0 to 7.0 mm (0.118 to 0.276 in.) wide and 3.0 mm (0.118 in.) or thicker

      Tech Tips

      Apply at least 20 mm (0.787 in.) of seal packing from the inside edge of the protrusion of the cylinder block sub-assembly.

      Note


      • Remove any oil from the contact surfaces.

      • Install the cylinder head gasket within 3 minutes and tighten the bolts within 15 minutes of applying seal packing.

    3. Place the new cylinder head gasket on the cylinder block sub-assembly with the Lot No. stamp facing upward.

      Note

      Pay attention to the installation direction.

  4. INSTALL CYLINDER HEAD SUB-ASSEMBLY

    Tech Tips

    The cylinder head bolts are tightened in 4 progressive steps.


    1. Place the cylinder head sub-assembly on the cylinder block sub-assembly.

      Note


      • Ensure that no oil is on the contact surface of the cylinder head sub-assembly.

      • Place the cylinder head sub-assembly on the cylinder block sub-assembly gently in order not to damage the gasket with the bottom of the cylinder head sub-assembly.

    2. Install the 10 plate washers to the 10 cylinder head bolts.

    3. Apply a light coat of engine oil to the threads and under the heads of the cylinder head bolts.

    4. Step 1:

        Using a 10 mm bi-hexagon wrench, install and uniformly tighten the 10 cylinder head bolts in several steps, in the order shown in the illustration.

        Torque:
        36 N*m  { 367 kgf*cm, 27 ft.*lbf }

        Note

        Do not drop the plate washers for the cylinder head bolts into the cylinder head sub-assembly.

    5. Step 2:


      1. Check that the cylinder head bolts are tightened to the specified torque.

        Torque:
        36 N*m  { 367 kgf*cm, 27 ft.*lbf }
    6. Step 3:


      1. A002ACHC03
        *a Paint Mark
        B003ZIE Front

        Mark each cylinder head bolt head with paint as shown in the illustration.

      2. Tighten the cylinder head bolts by 90° in the order shown in step 1.

    7. Step 4:


      1. Tighten the cylinder head bolts by another 90° in the order shown in step 1.

      2. Check that the paint marks are now facing rearward.

        Note


        • Do not apply oil for at least 2 hours after installation.

        • Do not start the engine for at least 2 hours after installation.

        • After installation, if the seal packing has seeped out, wipe it off.

        Tech Tips

        Perform "Inspection After Repair" after replacing the cylinder head sub-assembly.

    2. Install the 16 valve stem caps to the cylinder head sub-assembly.

      Note

      Do not drop the valve stem caps into the cylinder head sub-assembly.

  6. SET CAMSHAFT TIMING GEAR ASSEMBLY

    Tech Tips

    When installing the camshaft timing gear assembly, release the lock pin and set the camshaft timing gear assembly to the advanced position before installation.


    1. A00278JC26
      *a Advanced Position
      *b Retarded Position
      *c Knock Pin Hole
      *d Alignment Mark

      Check the camshaft timing gear assembly position.

      Note


      • If the camshaft timing gear assembly is set to the advanced position, do not let the camshaft timing gear assembly rotate clockwise during installation.

      • If the camshaft timing gear assembly has rotated to the most retarded position, make sure to release the lock pin and set the camshaft timing gear assembly to the most advanced position before tightening the bolt of the camshaft timing gear assembly.

    2. A0027FQC55
      *a Knock Pin
      *b Pin Hole

      Align and fit the knock pin of the camshaft with the pin hole of the camshaft timing gear assembly.

    3. A002BAAC74
      *1 Camshaft Timing Gear Assembly
      *2 Camshaft Flange
      *a Incorrect
      *b Correct
      *c Gap
      *d No Gap

      Check that there is no gap between the camshaft timing gear assembly and camshaft flange.

    4. Secure the camshaft in place by hand, and then install the bolt of the camshaft timing gear assembly by hand.

      Note

      Do not use any tools to install the bolt. If the bolt is installed using a tool, the lock pin will be damaged.

    5. Release the lock pin.

      A0028GAC21
      *a Retard Side Path *b Advance Side Path
      *c Open *d Close
      *e Rubber Piece *f Vinyl Tape
      *g Knock Pin - -

      1. Clean the camshaft journal with non-residue solvent.

      2. Cover the 4 oil paths of the cam journal with vinyl tape as shown in the illustration.

        Tech Tips

        There are 4 oil paths in the grooves of the camshaft. Plug 3 of the paths with rubber pieces.

      3. Make a hole at the port (A) shown in the illustration.

      4. A002CB8

        While applying approximately 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/ cm2, 29 psi) of air pressure to the oil path, forcibly turn the camshaft timing gear assembly in the advance direction (counterclockwise).

        CAUTION:

        Cover the paths with a piece of cloth when applying pressure to keep oil from spraying.

        Note

        Do not allow the camshaft timing gear assembly to lock. If it locks, release the lock pin again.

        Tech Tips


        • Depending on the air pressure applied, the camshaft timing gear assembly may turn in the advance direction without assistance by hand.

        • If enough air pressure cannot be applied because of air leakage from the port, releasing the lock pin may be difficult.

      5. Remove the vinyl tape and rubber pieces from the camshaft.

    6. Remove the bolt and camshaft timing gear assembly.

      Note

      Do not allow the camshaft timing gear assembly to lock. If it locks, release the lock pin again.
