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

HINT:

One of the 2 grooves located on the cam journal is for retarding cam timing (upper) and the other is for advancing cam timing (lower). Each groove has 2 oil paths. Plug one of the oil paths of each groove with a rubber piece before wrapping the cam journal with the vinyl tape.



b.

Prick a hole in the vinyl tape of the advance side path and retard side path on opposite side of the camshaft.

Confirm that the camshaft timing gear assembly turns in the advance direction when reducing the air pressure applied to the retard side path.

HINT:

The lock pin is released and the camshaft timing gear assembly turns in the advance direction.



e.

When the camshaft timing gear assembly reaches the most advanced position, release the air pressure on the retard side path, and then release the air pressure on the advance side path.

NOTICE:

Be sure to release the air pressure from the retard side path first. If the air pressure of the advance side path is released first, the camshaft timing gear assembly may abruptly shift in the retard direction and break the lock pin or other parts.



f.

Secure the hexagonal portion of the camshaft in a soft jaw vise.

Remove the bolt and camshaft timing gear assembly.

NOTICE:
·

Do not remove the other 4 bolts.

·

Before removing the camshaft timing gear assembly, make sure that the lock pin has been released.

·

Keep the camshaft timing gear assembly horizontal while removing it from the camshaft.

·

If the camshaft timing gear assembly is to be reused, be sure to use it with the lock pin released.
