4

Set the No 3 camshaft onto the cylinder head LH with the cam lobes of the No 2 cylinder
facing downward as shown below

5

Apply a light coat of engine oil to the 4 bearing caps

NOTE:

As the thrust clearance of the camshaft is small, the camshaft must
be kept level while it is being installed. If the camshaft is not kept
level, the portion of the cylinder head which receives the shaft thrust
may crack or be damaged, causing the camshaft to seize or break. To
avoid this, the following steps should be carried out.
