Locate the oil jets for the VTC oil supply and the timing chain tensioner. (Refer to illustrations.) Use a suitable drill (approx. 1/8") to slightly
enlarge the hole in the jet and install a slide hammer type "dent puller" into the orifice*. Remove the jets using a series of light blows. Mark the
position of the tensioner oil jet on the left (front) head. This will ensure its location is not confused with the location of the VTC oil passage blind
plug.

Note:
If the steel VTC oil jet is difficult to remove, use an electric heat gun to heat the area of the cylinder head around the jet to approximately 125
degrees F.
D)
Locate the three, 6 mm blind plugs on the front (left) head and one, 6 mm blind plug on the rear (right) head. (Refer to illustrations.)
