For 1990-2009 cars only
- Measure the straightness of the camshaft using a dial gage.
- Replace the camshaft if the measured value is over the specified limit.
- Measure the outer diameter of each journal at the 5 different places to check the abrasion of the camshaft journal.
- Using a bore gage (1), measure the inner diameter of the cylinder head journal at the 5 places. The clearance of the journal is measured by the difference between the outer diameter of the camshaft the inner diameter of the cylinder head journal part.
- If necessary, replace the camshaft or cylinder head of which the limit is over the specified limit.
