97. REMOVE CAMSHAFT TIMING GEAR ASSEMBLY
(a) Check the lock of the camshaft timing gear.
(b) Release the lock pin.
NOTE: Before removing the camshaft timing gear assembly, make sure that the lock pin has been released.
(1) After cleaning and degreasing the VVT oil hole on the intake side of the No. 1 camshaft bearing cap, completely seal the oil hole with adhesive tape or equivalent as shown in the illustration to prevent air from leaking.
NOTE: Be sure to cover the oil hole completely because air leaks due to insufficient sealing will prevent the lock pin from being released.
(2) Prick a hole in the tape covering the oil hole as shown in the illustration. (Procedure A)
(3) Apply approximately 150 kPa (1.5 kgf/cm2, 22 psi) of air pressure to the hole pricked in procedure A to release the lock pin.
NOTE:
- If air leaks out, reattach the adhesive tape.
- Cover the oil hole with a shop rag or piece of cloth when applying air pressure to prevent oil from spraying.
- Do not lock the camshaft timing gear assembly. If it is locked, release the lock pin again.
HINT:
- The camshaft timing gear assembly may be turned in the advance direction without applying any force.
- If enough air pressure cannot be applied because of air leakage from the port, releasing the lock pin may be difficult.
(4) Remove the adhesive tape from the No. 1 camshaft bearing cap.
(c) Remove the flange bolt while holding the hexagonal portion of the camshaft, and then remove the camshaft timing gear assembly.
NOTE:
- Before removing the camshaft timing gear, make sure that the lock pin has been released.
- Be sure not to remove the other 4 bolts.
- Keep the camshaft timing gear assembly horizontal while removing it from the camshaft.
98. REMOVE CAMSHAFT TIMING EXHAUST GEAR ASSEMBLY
(a) Remove the flange bolt while holding the hexagonal portion of the camshaft, and then remove the camshaft timing exhaust gear assembly.
NOTE:
- Be sure not to remove the other 4 bolts.
- Keep the camshaft timing exhaust gear assembly horizontal while removing it from the camshaft.
99. REMOVE CAMSHAFT BEARING CAP
(a) Uniformly loosen and remove the 10 bearing cap bolts in the sequence shown in the illustration.
(b) Uniformly loosen and remove the 15 bearing cap bolts in the sequence shown in the illustration.
NOTE:
- Uniformly loosen the bolts while keeping the camshaft level.
- If the camshaft bearing cap bolts hare been loosened, reapply seal packing between the camshaft housing and cylinder head.
(c) Remove the 5 bearing caps.
HINT: Arrange the removed parts in the correct order.
(d) Remove the camshaft and No. 2 camshaft.
100. REMOVE CAMSHAFT
(a) Remove the camshaft.
101. REMOVE NO. 2 CAMSHAFT
(a) Remove the No. 2 camshaft.
102. REMOVE NO. 1 CAMSHAFT BEARING

HINT: Arrange the removed parts in the correct order.
103. REMOVE NO. 2 CAMSHAFT BEARING
(a) Remove the 2 No. 2 camshaft bearings.
HINT: Arrange the removed parts in the correct order.
104. REMOVE CAMSHAFT HOUSING SUB-ASSEMBLY
(a) Remove the 2 bolts.
(b) Remove the camshaft housing by prying between the cylinder head and camshaft housing with a screwdriver.
NOTE: Be careful not to damage the contact surfaces of the cylinder head and camshaft housing.
HINT: Tape the screwdriver tip before use.
