Warning
•  Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can very easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep sparks and flames away from fuel.
•  Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injuries or death and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the “Fuel Line Safety Procedure”. (See BEFORE SERVICE PRECAUTION [MZR-CD (RF Turbo)].)

10.  Remove in the order shown in the table.

11.  Install in the reverse order of removal.

12.  Refill the engine coolant. (See ENGINE COOLANT REPLACEMENT [MZR-CD (RF Turbo)].)

13.  Inspect valve clearance. (See VALVE CLEARANCE INSPECTION [MZR-CD (RF Turbo)].)

14.  Inspect the engine oil level.

•  If necessary, add oil. (See ENGINE OIL LEVEL INSPECTION [MZR-CD (RF Turbo)].)

15.  Inspect the compression. (See COMPRESSION INSPECTION [MZR-CD (RF Turbo)].)

16.  Start the engine and:

(1)  Inspect the pulleys and the drive belt for runout and contact.
(2)  Inspect the engine oil, engine coolant, and fuel leakage.

Cylinder Head Cover Removal Note

1.  Wrap the fuel injector coupler with vinyl tape 2 times covering the coupler edge so as not to damage the injector seal.

am3zzw00003984

2.  Loosen the bolts in the order shown in the figure.

am3zzw00004173

3.  Remove the cylinder head cover carefully so as not to damage the injector seal from coupler edge.

4.  Verify that there are no cracks or rips on the injector seal.

5.  If there are any cracks or rips, remove the injector seal using the following procedure to replace it with a new one.

(1)  Being careful not to damage the cylinder head cover, carefully remove the injector seal, lightly tapping it from the back side of the cylinder head cover with a flathead screwdriver.

Rocker Arm and Rocker Arm Shaft Removal Note

1.  Loosen the bolts in two or three steps in the order shown.

am3zzw00003987


Cylinder Head Removal Note

1.  Loosen the cylinder head bolts in two or three steps in the order shown.

Cylinder Head Installation Note

1.  Measure the length of each cylinder head bolt.

•  Replace any that exceeds maximum length.
Cylinder head bolt length
Standard : 159.7—160.3 mm {6.288—6.311 in}
Maximum : 161.0 mm {6.338 in}
am3zzw00003989

2.  Tighten the bolts in two or three steps in the order shown.

Tightening torque
29 N·m {3.0 kgf·m, 22 ft·lbf}
am3zzw00004175

3.  Put a paint mark on each bolt head.

4.  Using the marks as a reference, tighten the bolts by turning each 90°—105° in the sequence shown.

5.  Further tighten each bolt by turning another 90°—105°.

6.  Then further tighten each bolt by turning another 90°—105°.

2.  Install the camshaft caps according to the cap number.

3.  Install the rocker arm shaft plane side upward.

am3zzw00003992

Caution
•  Because there is little camshaft thrust clearance, the camshaft must be held horizontally while it is installed. Otherwise, excessive force will be applied to the thrust area, causing burrs on the thrust receiving area of the cylinder head journal. To avoid this, the following procedure must be observed.

4.  Tighten the bolts in two or three steps in the order shown.

Tightening torque
24.5—30.3 N·m {2.50—3.09 kgf·m, 18.1—22.3 ft·lbf}
