Fig. 2.84. The order of loosening the camshaft bolts


Loosen the camshaft bolts in several steps in the order shown (Fig. 2.84).

Note: The cylinder head and camshaft bearing caps are numbered to facilitate their reinstallation in their original position during assembly. After removal, keep the caps together with the cylinder head from which they were removed. Do not mix the caps.


Remove the camshaft.

Remove the valve lifter.

Select the appropriate adjusting shim using the following diagram and notes made during the initial inspection as a guide:

new adjusting shim = removed shim + measured valve clearance – standard valve clearance.
  • inlet - 0.25 mm;
  • release - 0.30 mm.

Standard (on a cold engine):
  • inlet - 0.22–0.28 mm (0.25±0.03 mm);
  • release - 0.27–0.33 mm (0.30±0.03 mm).

Install the camshaft, the piston of cylinder No.1 should be in the TDC position.

Tighten the camshaft bolt in two steps (Fig. 2.85):
  • torque 5.0–9.0 Nm;
  • torque of 14.0–17.0 N·m.

Install the exhaust camshaft sprocket (see fig. 2.83).

Note: Do not tighten the camshaft sprocket bolt. First check the valve opening or closing timing, then tighten the bolt.

Tighten the exhaust camshaft sprocket bolt to a torque of 69–75 N·m.

Remove the special tool from the camshaft.

Remove the special tool from the hole in the lower block plug.

Turn the crankshaft clockwise two revolutions to the TDC position. If the TDC position is not reached, loosen the crankshaft pulley bolt and perform all operations, starting with installing the special device (see fig. 2.80).

Apply silicone sealant to the top plug of the front engine cover.

Install the upper plug of the front engine cover, tightening it to a tightening torque of 10 N·m.



Install the lower cylinder block plug, tightening it to a tightening torque of 18–22 N·m.

Install a new lower plug of the front engine cover, tightening it to a torque of 12 N·m.

Install the right intermediate drive shaft and the joint shaft.
