CAMSHAFT JOURNAL WEAR
• Determine whether or not each journal is worn down to the
limit by measuring the oil clearance with the camshaft installed
in place.
• Use the plastigauge to read the clearance at the widest por-
tion, which is specified as follows:
 Camshaft journal oil clearance:
Service Limit: (IN & EX): 0.150 mm (0.0059 in)
[ 09900-22301: Plastigauge
09900-22302: Plastigauge
NOTE:
Do not rotate the camshaft with the plastigauge in place.
• Remove the camshaft holders, and read the width of the com-
pressed plastigauge with envelope scale.
• This measurement should be taken at the widest part.
• If the camshaft journal oil clearance measured exceeds the
limit, measure the inside diameter of the camshaft journal holder
and outside diameter of the camshaft journal.
• Replace the camshaft or the cylinder head depending upon
which one exceeds the specification.
