Job 7. Petrol engine. 
Valve clearances - adjustment. 
0 INSIDE INFORMATION! Adjustment should always be 
made with the engine cold. B 
G Step 1: Remove the camshaft cover and the spark plugs. 
Jack up a front wheel and engage top gear. Turning the wheel 
will rotate the engine and therefore the camshaft. If the 
engine
 is
 out of the car, use a socket and long lever on the 
crankshaft pulley nut. If the cylinder head is detached, turn 
the
 camshaft belt sprocket, by hand. 
G Step 2: The inlet and exhaust valves use different clear-
ances
 which are checked when each cam lobe is pointing 
directly away from its follower. See Chapter
 3,
 Facts and 
Figures. 
G Step 3: The order in which the valves are fitted in the 
cylinder head is: 
Inlet: 2-3-6-7 
Exhaust: 1-4-5-8 
from
 the timing cover end. 
G Step 4: Select a feeler blade which is about the thickness 
of the
 correct valve clearance and insert it between the heel of 
the cam
 and the cam follower shim when the cam lobe is 
uppermost. If necessary, select different thicknesses of feeler 
blade until a small amount of drag can be felt as the blade is 
pushed in and out. Record the total blade thickness. This is the 
valve clearance for this valve. 
G Step 5: Rotate the camshaft and repeat this operation on 
each
 of the remaining seven valves, noting their respective 
clearances. Those which have clearances within limits 
obviously don't need any further attention. 
Q Step 6: The remaining valves will now need to have their 
shims (arrowed) changed for thicker or thinner ones, bringing 
their clearances to within the specifications shown in Chapter 
3, Facts and Figures 
Ll Step 7: A special tool is needed to depress the cam 
follower and allow extraction of the shim. This is available 
from your FIAT dealer, or you will have to make a lever with a 
fork that locates nicely on the rim of a cam follower allowing 
removal of the shim by prising it from the follower. 
• Step 8: The 
thickness of a shim 
is engraved on it in 
mm (arrowed). If 
this is worn away, 
you will have to 
measure the 
thickness with a 
metric micrometer
 -
or have your FIAT 
dealer do it for you. 
Your FIAT dealer can 
also supply any new 
thickness of shim 
you may require. 
• Step 9: Where 
a clearance is too 
small with the thinnest shim in position, the valves should be 
removed and the stem ground just sufficiently to make the 
correction. Your FIAT dealer can do this, keeping the end 
square and retaining a smooth finish.

Refer to Job
 10
 for the location of components referred to 
here. 
• Step 1: Offer the transmission to the engine. The input 
shaft should slide easily through the splined hub of the driven 
plate, provided that it is still centralised. See PART B: 
TRANSMISSION Re-centre the clutch if necessary. 
r ' «the input shaft and 
- hub splines are not aligned, 
ask a helper to turn the 
crankshaft pulley nut while you apply gentle pressure 
to bring the two units together. 
• Step 2: Once the input shaft is properly engaged, use 
two bolts, tightened evenly, to draw the units together. 
DON'T force it! If the units don't come together easily, 
separate them, check clutch centring and try again. Fit the 
remaining bolts, not forgetting the lifting eyes and brackets. 
• Step 3: Refit the flywheel housing cover plate and 
mounting bracket.

• seal the open ends of pipes and connections with masking 
tape so that no dirt or other contamination can get in. 
IMPORTANT NOTE: Stiffening-up of the steering may be 
due to either the pump control pulley belt slipping or 
insufficient oil. Check before assuming that the pump or 
rack is faulty. If either the pump or the power rack 
should fail, the power assisted steering will operate like 
a normal mechanical steering box, except that it may be 
higher geared and therefore more difficult to turn.
