| REMOVAL SERVICE POINTS
| <<A>> CAMSHAFT SPROCKET REMOVAL
| Use the following special tools to hold the camshaft sprocket. Front hub and flange yoke holder (MB990767) Pin (MD998719) Loosen the camshaft sprocket mounting bolt and remove the camshaft sprocket.
| <<B>> EXHAUST ROCKER ARM AND SHAFT ASSEMBLY/INLET ROCKER ARM AND SHAFT ASSEMBLY REMOVAL CAUTION Never disassemble the exhaust rocker arm and shaft assembly, and inlet rocker arm and shaft assembly.
| <<C>> VALVE SPRING RETAINER LOCKS REMOVAL CAUTION When removing valve spring retainer locks, leave the piston of each cylinder in the TDC (Top Dead Centre) position. The valve may fall into the cylinder if the piston is not properly in the TDC position.
| Use special tool valve spring compressor (MD998772) to compress the valve spring and then remove the valve spring retainer lock.
| INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS
| >>A<< VALVE STEM SEALS INSTALLATION Apply a small amount of engine oil to the valve stem seals. CAUTION Do not re-use the valve stem seal. Special tool valve stem seal installer (MB991999) must be used to install the valve stem seal. Improper installation could result in oil leaking past the valve guide.
| Use the special tool to fill a new valve stem seal in the valve guide using the valve stem area as a guide.
| >>B<< EXHAUST VALVE SPRINGS/INLET VALVE SPRINGS INSTALLATION
| Install the valve springs with its identification colour painted end facing the locker arm.
| >>C<< VALVE SPRING RETAINER LOCKS INSTALLATION
| Use special tool valve spring compressor (MD998772) to compress the valve spring and then install the valve spring retainer lock in the same manner as removal.
| >>D<< CAMSHAFT INSTALLATION
| Set the dowel pin of the camshaft in the position shown in the figure.
| >>E<< INLET ROCKER ARM AND SHAFT ASSEMBLY/INLET ROCKER ARM SHAFT CAPS INSTALLATION
| Place the inlet rocker shaft so that its 5.5 mm hole faces toward the cylinder head. Install the inlet rocker arm shaft caps. Tighten the inlet rocker shaft mounting bolts to the specified torque. Tightening torque: 31 ± 3 N·m
| >>F<< EXHAUST ROCKER ARM AND SHAFT ASSEMBLY/EXHAUST ROCKER ARM SHAFT CAPS INSTALLATION
| Install the exhaust rocker shaft so that its notch is positioned as shown. Install the exhaust rocker arm shaft caps. Tighten the exhaust rocker shaft mounting bolts to the specified torque. Tightening torque: 13 ± 1 N·m
| >>G<< CAMSHAFT OIL SEAL INSTALLATION
| Apply engine oil to the entire inner diameter of the oil seal lip. Use special tool camshaft oil seal installer (MD998713) to press-fit the oil seal as shown.
| >>H<< CAMSHAFT SPROCKET INSTALLATION
| Use the following special tool as during removal to hold the camshaft sprocket. Front hub and flange yoke holder (MB990767) Pin (MD998719) Tighten the camshaft sprocket mounting bolt to the specified torque. Tightening torque: 89 ± 9 N·m
| >>I<< CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR SUPPORT INSTALLATION Remove sealant from the camshaft position sensor support and cylinder head surfaces.
| Apply the sealant to the camshaft position sensor support flange in a continuous bead as shown in the illustration. Specified sealant: MITSUBISHI GENUINE PART MD970389 or equivalent NOTE: Install the camshaft position sensor support within 15 minutes after applying the sealant. Install the camshaft position sensor support to the cylinder head. CAUTION Wait at least one hour. Never start the engine or let engine oil or coolant touch the adhesion surface during that time. Tighten the camshaft position sensor support mounting bolts to the specified torque. Tightening torque: 14 ± 1 N·m
| >>J<< O-RING/OIL CONTROL VALVE INSTALLATION CAUTION Never re-use the O-ring.
| Before installing O-ring, wind the tape with the soft adhesion (sealing tape) around the oil passages cut-out area of engine oil control valve to prevent the damage. If the O-ring is damaged, it can be the cause of oil leak. Apply a small amount of engine oil to the O-ring and then install it to the oil control valve. Assemble the oil control valve to the cylinder head. Tighten the oil control valve mounting bolt to the specified torque. Tightening torque: 11 ± 1 N·m
