Repair procedures
Removal
  

In case of removing the high pressure fuel pump, high pressure fuel pipe, delivery pipe, and injector, there may be injury caused by leakage of the high pressure fuel. So don’t do any repair work right after engine stops.

  

Use fender covers to avoid damaging painted surfaces.

To avoid damaging the cylinder head, wait until the engine coolant temperature drops below normal temperature before removing it.

When handling a metal gasket, take care not to fold the gasket or damage the contact surface of the gasket.

To avoid damage, unplug the wiring connectors carefully while holding the connector portion.

  

Mark all wiring and hoses to avoid misconnection.

Inspection

Cylinder Head

1.

Inspect for flatness.

Using a precision straight edge and feeler gauge, measure the surface the contacting the cylinder block and the manifolds for warpage.

If the flatness is greater than maximum, replace the cylinder head.

Flatness of cylinder head gasket surface

Standard : Less than 0.05 mm (0.0019 in.) for total area

Less than 0.02 mm (0.0007 in.) for a section of 100 mm (3.9370 in.) X 100 mm (3.9370 in.)

Flatness of manifold mounting surface (Intake/Exhaust)

Standard : Less than 0.10 mm (0.0039 in.)

2.

Inspect for cracks.

Check the combustion chamber, intake ports, exhaust ports and cylinder block surface for cracks. If cracked, replace the cylinder head.

Valve And Valve Spring

1.

Inspect valve stems and valve guides.

(1)

Using a caliper gauge, measure the inside diameter of the valve guide.

Valve guide inner diameter

Intake / Exhaust :

5.500 - 5.512 mm (0.21654 - 0.21701 in.)

(2)

Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of the valve stem.

Valve stem outer diameter

Exhaust : 0.030 - 0.054 mm (0.00118 - 0.00212 in.)

If the clearance is greater than maximum, replace the valve or cylinder head.

2.

Inspect the valves.

(1)

Check the valve is ground to the correct valve face angle.

(2)

Check that the surface of the valve for wear.

If the valve face is worn, replace the valve.

(3)

Check the valve head margin thickness.

Valve head thickness (Margin)

[Standard]

Intake : 1.02 mm(0.0401 in.)

Exhaust : 1.09 mm(0.0429 in.)

If the margin thickness is less than minimum, replace the valve.

(4)

Check the valve length.

Valve length

[Standard]

Intake : 113.18 mm (4.4559 in.)

Exhaust : 105.79 mm (4.1650 in.)

[Limit]

Intake : 112.93 mm (4.4461 in.)

Exhaust : 105.59 mm (4.1571 in.)

(5)

Check the surface of the valve stem tip for wear.

If the valve stem tip is worn, replace the valve.

3.

Inspect the valve seats

(1)

Check the valve seat for evidence of overheating and improper contact with the valve face. Replace the cylinder head if necessary.

(2)

Check the valve guide for wear. If the valve guide is worn, replace the cylinder head.

4.

Inspect the valve springs.

(1)

Using a steel square, measure the out-of-square of the valve spring.

(2)

Using a vernier calipers, measure the free length of the valve spring.

Valve spring

[Standard]

Free height : 47.44 mm (1.8677 in.)

Out-of-square : Less than 1.5°

If the free length is not as specified, replace the valve spring.

MLA (Mechanical Lash Adjuster)

1.

Inspect the MLA.

Using a micrometer, measure the MLA outside diameter.

MLA outer diameter :

31.964 - 31.980 mm (1.2584 - 1.2590 in.)

2.

Using a caliper gauge, measure MLA tappet bore inner diameter of cylinder head.

Tappet bore inner diameter :

32.000 - 32.025 mm (1.2598 - 1.2608 in.)

3.

Subtract MLA outside diameter measurement from tappet bore inside diameter measurement.

MLA to tappet bore clearance

[Standard] : 0.020 - 0.061 mm (0.00078 - 0.00240 in.)

Reassembly
  

Thoroughly clean all parts to be assembled.

Before installing the parts, apply fresh engine oil to all sliding and rotating surfaces.

Replace oil seals with new ones.

1.

Install valves.

(1)

Using SST (09222-4A000), push in a new oil seal.

  

Do not reuse old valve stem seals.

Incorrect installation of the seal could result in oil leakage past the valve guides.

(2)

Install the valve, valve spring and spring retainer.

  

Place valve springs so that the side coated with enamel faces toward the valve spring retainer and then installs the retainer.

(3)

Using the SST (09222-3K000, 09222-3K100), compress the spring and install the retainer locks. After installing the valves, ensure that the retainer locks are correctly in place before releasing the valve spring compressor.

(4)

Lightly tap the end of each valve stem two or three times with the wooden handle of a hammer to ensure proper seating of the valve and retainer lock.

2.

Install the MLAs after applying engine oil.

Check that the MLA rotates smoothly by hand.

  

MLA can be reinstalled in its original position.

However, the valve lash clearances must be rechecked and adjusted accordingly before the cylinder head is installed onto the cylinder block.

Refer to General information in EM section for Valve Clearance checking and adjustment procedure.

Installation
  

Always use new cylinder head bolts. Cylinder head bolts are torque-to-yield bolts designed to be permanently elongated beyond the state of elasticity when torqued, so if the bolts are removed and reused, it may cause the bolts to break or fail to maintain clamping force.

Thoroughly clean all parts to be assembled.

Always use a new head and manifold gasket.

The cylinder head gasket is a metal gasket. Take care not to bend it.

Rotate the crankshaft, set the No.1 piston at TDC.

1.

Install the water temperature control assembly (A) from the cylinder head.

Tightening torque

Bolts :14.7 - 19.6 N·m (1.5 - 2.0 kgf·m, 10.8 - 14.5 lb·ft)

Nuts :19.6 - 23.5 N·m (2.0 - 2.4 kgf·m, 14.5 - 17.4 lb·ft)

2.

Install the cylinder head gasket.

(1)

The sealant locations on cylinder head gasket and cylinder block must be free of engine oil and etc.

(2)

Apply liquid gasket (Loctite 5900H or equivalent) on the cylinder block top surface before assembling the cylinder head gasket.

Bead width : 2.0 - 3.0 mm (0.08 - 0.12 in.)

(3)

Install the cylinder head gasket (A) on the cylinder block.

  

Be careful of the installation direction.

(4)

Apply liquid gasket (Loctite 5900H or equivalent) on the cylinder head gasket top surface after assembling the cylinder head gasket.

Bead width : 2.0 - 3.0 mm (0.08 - 0.12 in.)

  

After applying liquid gasket, assemble the cylinder head in 5 minutes.

3.

Place the cylinder head (A) carefully in order not to damage the gasket with the bottom part of the end.

  

Remove the extruded sealant after assembling the cylinder head assembly.

4.

Install cylinder head bolts.

(1)

Do not apply engine oil on the cylinder head bolts.

(2)

Using the SST (09221-4A000), tighten the cylinder head bolts and plate washers, in several passes, in the sequence shown.

Tightening torque :

32.4 - 36.3 N·m (3.3 - 3.7 kgf·m, 23.9 - 26.8 lb·ft) + 90 - 95° + 90 - 95°

  

Always use new cylinder head bolts. Cylinder head bolts are torque-to-yield bolts designed to be permanently elongated beyond the state of elasticity when torqued, so if the bolts are removed and reused, it may cause the bolts to break or fail to maintain clamping force.

5.

Install the order parts in the reverse order of removal.
