Do not damage the No. 2 camshaft or camshaft timing sprocket.
SET NO. 1 CYLINDER TO TDC/COMPRESSION
Turn the crankshaft pulley until its timing notch (groove) and the timing mark "0" of the timing chain cover sub-assembly are aligned.
| *a | Timing Notch |
INSTALL NO. 2 CAMSHAFT
Make sure that the No. 1 valve rocker arm sub-assemblies are installed as shown in the illustration.
| *A | Type A | *B | Type B |
| *1 | No. 1 Valve Rocker Arm Sub-assembly | *2 | Valve Lash Adjuster Assembly |
| *3 | Valve Stem Cap | - | - |
Clean the camshaft journals.

INSTALL CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP
Confirm the marks and numbers on the 3 No. 3 camshaft bearing caps, No. 2 camshaft bearing cap, No. 1 camshaft bearing cap and place them in their proper positions and directions.
Using several steps, uniformly tighten the 10 bolts in the sequence shown in the illustration.
| 27 N*m | 275 kgf*cm | 20 ft.*lbf |
Using several steps, uniformly tighten the 11 bolts in the sequence shown in the illustration.
| 16 N*m | 163 kgf*cm | 12 ft.*lbf |
Check the torque of each bolt again.
INSTALL CAMSHAFT TIMING GEAR ASSEMBLY
Check the camshaft timing gear assembly position.
| *a | Advance Position |
| *b | Retard Position |
| *c | Knock Pin Hole |
| *d | Alignment Mark |
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 camshaft timing gear assembly.
Install the camshaft timing gear assembly as shown in the illustration.
| *a | Narrow |
| *b | Wide |
Turn the camshaft timing gear assembly approximately 180° counterclockwise.
| *a | Narrow |
| *b | Wide |
Align the paint mark with the timing mark and install the chain sub-assembly to the camshaft timing gear assembly.
| *a | Paint Mark |
| *b | Timing mark |
"A" is not a timing mark.
Align and insert the knock pin of the camshaft with the pin hole of the camshaft timing gear assembly.
| *1 | Knock Pin |
| *a | Knock Pin Hole |
Check that there is no clearance between the camshaft timing gear assembly and camshaft flange.
| *1 | Camshaft Timing Gear Assembly |
| *a | Camshaft Flange |
| *b | No Clearance |
Secure the camshaft in place by hand, and then install the installation bolt of the camshaft timing gear assembly by hand.
Do not use any tools to install the bolt. If the bolt is installed using a tool, the lock pin will be damaged.
If the lock pin has not been released, release it.
After cleaning and degreasing the intake side VVT oil hole on the No. 1 camshaft bearing cap, completely seal the oil hole with adhesive tape or equivalent as shown in the illustration to prevent air from leaking.
| *a | Make a Hole |
| *b | Adhesive Tape Sealing Area |
Be sure to seal the oil hole completely because air leaks due to insufficient sealing will prevent the lock pin from being released.
Make a hole in the adhesive tape covering the oil hole as shown in the illustration. (Procedure A)
Apply approximately 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/ cm2, 29 psi) of air pressure to the hole made in procedure A to release the lock pin.
If air leaks out, reattach the adhesive tape.
Cover the oil hole with a piece of cloth when applying air pressure to prevent oil from spraying.
Forcibly turn the camshaft timing gear assembly in the advance direction (counterclockwise).
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.
Remove the adhesive tape from the No. 1 camshaft bearing cap.
Using a wrench to hold the hexagonal portion of the camshaft, install the bolt.
| *a | Hold |
| *b | Turn |
| 85 N*m | 867 kgf*cm | 63 ft.*lbf |
Be careful not to damage the cylinder head sub-assembly or spark plug tube with the wrench.
Check that both timing marks on the camshaft timing gear assembly and camshaft timing sprocket are facing upward as shown in the illustration.
| *a | Paint Mark |
| *b | Timing Mark |
"A" is not a timing mark.
