INSTALL CAMSHAFTS OF LH CYLINDER HEAD

NOTICE:
Since the thrust clearance of the camshaft is small, the
camshaft must be held level while it is being installed. If the
camshaft is not level, the portion of the cylinder head re-
ceiving the shaft thrust may crack or be damaged, causing
the camshaft to seize or break. To avoid this, the following
steps should be carried out.

(a)

Install the exhaust camshaft.
(1)

Apply new engine oil to the thrust portion and jour-
nal of the camshaft.

(2)

Place the exhaust camshaft at 90

° angle of timing

mark (1 dot mark) on the cylinder head.
