CVVT Assembly
1. Inspect the CVVT assembly.
(1) Check that the CVVT assembly will not turn.
(2) Apply vinyl tape to the retard hole except the one indicated by the arrow in the illustration.
(3) Apply vinyl tape to the advance hold except the one indicated by the arrow in the illustration.
(4) Wrap tape around the tip of the air gun and apply air of approx. 150kpa(1.5kgf/cm2, 21psi) to the port of the camshaft. (Perform this in order to release the lock pin for the maximum default angle locking.)
In-default :Max retard
Ex-default :Max advance
NOTE:
When the oil splashes, wipe it off with a shop rag.
(5) Under the condition of (3), turn the In-CVVT assembly to the advance angle side (the arrow marked direction in the illustration) with your hand.
Depending on the air pressure, the In-CVVT assembly will turn to the advance side without applying force by hand.
Under the condition of (3), turn the Ex-CVVT assembly to the retard angle side (the arrow marked direction in the illustration) with your hand.
Depending on the air pressure, the Ex-CVVT assembly will turn to the retard side without applying force by hand.
(6) Except the position where the lock pin meets at the maximum default angle, let the CVVT assembly turn back and forth and check the movable range and that there is no interference.
Standard :
Movable smoothly in the range about 22.5°
(7) Turn the In-CVVT assembly with your hand and lock it at the maximum retard angle position (clockwise).
Turn the Ex-CVVT assembly with your hand and lock it at the maximum advance angle position.
HLA (Hydraulic Lash Adjuster)
With the HLA filled with engine oil, hold A and press B by hand. If B moves, replace the HLA.
Reassembly
NOTE:
- Thoroughly clean all parts to be assembled.
- Before installing the parts, apply fresh engine oil to all sliding and rotating surfaces.
- Replace oil seals with new ones.

[LH]
[RH]
2. Install the valves.
(1) Using the SST(09222-28200), push in a new oil seal.
NOTE:
- Do not reuse old valve stem seals.
- Incorrect installation of the seal could result in oil leakage past the valve guides.
(2) Install the valve, valve spring and spring retainer.
NOTE:
Place valve springs so that the side coated with enamel faces toward the valve spring retainer and then install the retainer.
(3) Using the SST(09222 - 3K000, 09222-3C300), compress the spring and install the retainer locks. After installing the valves, ensure that the retainer locks are correctly in place before releasing the valve spring compressor.
(4) Lightly tap the end of each valve stem two or three times with a soft hammer or the wooden handle of a hammer to ensure proper seating of the valve and retainer lock.
3. Install the roller finger follower and the hydraulic lash adjuster assembly (A).
(1) Until installing HLA shall be held upright so that engine oil in HLA should not spill and assured that dust does not adhere to HLA.
(2) HLA shall be inserted tenderly to the cylinder head not to spill engine oil from HLA. In case of spilling, air vent shall be done in accordance with the air bent procedure.
NOTE:
Stroke HLA in engine oil 4 - 5 times by pushing its cap while pushing the ball down slightly by hard steel wire.
(Take care not to severely push hard steel wire down since ball is several grams.)
4. Install the pressure relief valve.
Tightening torque :
21.6 - 25.5Nm (2.2 - 2.6kgf.m, 15.9 - 18.8lb-ft)
