As can be seen from the figure, if the intake and exhaust valves are lifted simultaneously, their heads will interfere with each other, resulting in bent valves. (A) Intake camshaft (B) Exhaust camshaft • When the timing belts are not installed, four camshafts are held at the “zero-lift” position, where all cams on camshafts do not push the intake and exhaust valves down. (Under this condition, all valves remain unlifted.) • When

While aligning marks, position the timing belt properly. CAUTION: • Disengagement of more than three timing belt teeth may result in interference between the valve and piston. • Ensure the belt’s rotating direction is correct. 12
