Valve Train

The valve train uses DAMB. The camshaft lobes are positioned directly above mechanical buckets which are positioned on top of the valves.

Ti-VCT

The Ti-VCT system allows variable control of intake valve closing which optimizes combustion at full load providing improved power and low speed torque (broadening the torque curve) which enables variable valve overlap which provides better fuel economy and emissions and provides optimized cold start operation with improved exhaust emissions.

Refer to ENGINE SYSTEM - GENERAL INFORMATION for basic mechanical concerns or refer to the INTRODUCTION - GAS for driveability concerns.

Valve Clearance Check

GENERAL EQUIPMENT

1. Remove the valve cover. Refer to «VALVE COVER»(ref-569556-S36973038392013072700000) .
2. Remove the RH fender splash shield. Refer to «FRONT END BODY PANELS»(ref-569581) .
3. NOTE: Turn the engine clockwise only, and only use the crankshaft bolt. NOTE: Measure the clearance of each valve at base circle, with the lobe pointed away from the tappet. General Equipment: Feeler Gauge. Use a feeler gauge to measure the clearance of each valve and record its location.
4. NOTE: The number on the valve tappet only reflects the digits that follow the decimal. For example, a tappet with the number 0.650 has the thickness of 3.650 mm. NOTE: The nominal clearance is: intake: 0.25 mm (0.0095 in). exhaust: 0.36 mm (0.0142 in). NOTE: The acceptable clearances after being fully installed are: intake: 0.19-0.31 mm (0.007-0.012 in). exhaust: 0.30-0.42 mm (0.012-0.017 in). Select tappets using this formula: ideal tappet thickness = measured clearance + the existing tappet thickness - nominal clearance. Select the closest tappet size to the ideal tappet thickness available and mark the installation location.
5. If any tappets do not measure within specifications, install new tappets in these locations. Refer to «VALVE TAPPETS»(ref-569556-S32985000992013072700000) .

1. Install the Special Tool(s): Timing Peg, Crankshaft TDC 303-507. Rotate the crankshaft slowly clockwise until the crankshaft balance weight is up against the Crankshaft TDC Timing Peg. The engine is now at TDC.
2. NOTE: Mark the balance shaft assembly front shafts on the top for reference that the balance shaft assembly is at TDC. Marker. General Equipment: Marker.
3. NOTE: Due to the precision interior construction of the balancer unit, it should not be disassembled. Remove the 4 bolts and the balancer unit.
4. Remove the adjustment shims from the seat faces of the balancer unit.
5. NOTE: Visually inspect the balancer unit gear for damage and verify that the shaft turns smoothly. If there is any damage or malfunction, replace the balancer unit. Install the master adjustment shims (No. 50) on the seat faces of the balancer unit.
6. With the balancer unit shaft marks at the TDC position, slowly install the balancer unit to the cylinder block to avoid interference between the crankshaft drive gear and the balancer unit driven gear.
7. Install the balancer unit bolts. Tighten in the sequence shown in illustration in 2 stages. Stage 1: Tighten to 25 Nm (18 lb-ft). Stage 2: Tighten to 42 Nm (31 lb-ft).
8. Remove the Special Tool(s): Timing Peg, Crankshaft TDC 303-507. Rotate the crankshaft to confirm that there are no meshing problems between the balancer unit gear and the crankshaft gear.
9. Install the Special Tool(s): Timing Peg, Crankshaft TDC 303-507. Rotate the crankshaft slowly clockwise until the crankshaft balance weight is up against the Crankshaft TDC Timing Peg. Remove the Crankshaft TDC Timing Peg.
10. NOTE: Measure the backlash and verify that it is within specified range at all of the following 6 positions: 10 degrees, 30 degrees, 100 degrees, 190 degrees, 210 degrees and 280 degrees. It will be necessary to reset the measuring equipment between measurements. NOTE: The measurement must be taken with the Dial Indicator Gauge with Holding Fixture, a 5-mm Allen wrench and worm clamp set up as shown in illustration. Mark the Allen wrench with a file 80 mm (3.149 in) above the driven gear shaft center. Make sure the worm clamp and Allen wrench are not touching the balance shaft housing. NOTE: For an accurate measurement while measuring the gear backlash, insert a screwdriver as shown in illustration into the crankshaft No. 1 crankweight area and set both the rotation and the thrust direction with the screwdriver, using a prying action as shown in illustration.
