Special Tools:











CAUTION:
The magnetic timing wheels (1) must not come in contact with magnets (pickup tools, trays, etc.) or any other strong magnetic field. This will destroy the timing wheels ability to correctly relay camshaft position to the camshaft position sensor.

CAUTION:
When the timing chain is removed and the cylinder heads are still installed, Do not forcefully rotate the camshafts or crankshaft independently of each other. Severe valve and/or piston damage can occur.

CAUTION:
DO NOT STAMP OR STRIKE THE CAMSHAFT BEARING CAPS. SEVERE DAMAGE WILL OCCUR TO THE BEARING CAPS.





1. Remove the upper intake manifold, all ignition coils, all spark plugs, right cylinder head cover .

2. The right side cam phaser ARROWS (2) should point away from each other and the SCRIBE LINES (1) should be parallel to the cylinder head cover mounting surface (3) when the right side number one cylinder piston is positioned at top-dead-center on the exhaust stroke.

3. Mark the camshaft phasers to the timing chain with a paint pen or equivalent.





4. Use the timing chain to compress the tensioner by slightly rotating the exhaust camshaft clockwise (4). Insert the (10369)(1) into place between the cylinder head boss and the tensioner arm to hold the tensioner in the compressed position. The Timing Chain Holder remains in place while the phasers are removed.

NOTE:
Minor rotation of a camshaft (a few degrees) may be required when installing the RH Camshaft/Phaser Lock.





5. Install (10202-1) (1).

6. Remove both the intake (2) and exhaust (3) oil control valves.

NOTE:
Left side shown. Right side similar.





7. Using care. Remove both the intake and exhaust oil control valves simultaneously.

NOTE:
DO NOT REMOVE THE PHASER LOCK






8. Camshaft bearing caps should have been marked during engine manufacturing. For example, the number one exhaust camshaft bearing cap is marked "1E->". The caps should be installed with the notch forward.

NOTE:
Loosen the camshaft bearing cap bolts in the sequence shown.

NOTE:
When the camshaft is removed the rocker arms may slide downward, mark the rocker arms before removing the camshaft.

9. Remove the camshaft bearing caps and the camshafts.
