Camshaft Installation
• BePlug
sure to install the following parts.
Hole Gaskets [A]
Dowel Pins [B]
NOTE
○The exhaust camshaft has a 1169 EX mark [A] and the
intake camshaft has a 1169 IN mark [B]. Be careful not
to mix up these shafts.
• Install the camshaft sprockets so that position the timing
marks [A] outside.
○The intake camshaft sprocket and exhaust camshaft
sprocket are identical.
• Apply a non-permanent locking agent to the threads of
the camshaft sprocket bolts and tighten them.
Torque - Camshaft Sprocket Bolts: 15 N·m (1.5 kgf·m, 11
ft·lb)
• Apply molybdenum disulfide oil solution to all cam parts
and journals.
• Using a wrench on the timing rotor bolt [A], turn the crank-
shaft clockwise until the line [B] (TDC mark for #1,4 pis-
tons) on the timing rotor is aligned with the mating surface
[C] of the crankcase.
NOTICE
The crankshaft may be turned while the camshafts
are removed. Always pull the chain taut while turn-
ing the crankshaft. This avoids kinking the chain
on the lower (crankshaft) sprocket. A kinked chain
could damage both the chain and the sprocket.
