Exhaust6.965 − 6.980 mm (0.2742 − 0.2748 in.)
(c) Subtract the valve stem diameter measurement from the
guide bushing inside diameter measurement.
Standard oil clearance:
Intake0.025 − 0.060 mm (0.0010 − 0.0024 in.)
Exhaust0.030 − 0.065 mm (0.0012 − 0.0026 in.)
Maximum oil clearance:
Intake0.08 mm (0.0031 in.)
Exhaust0.10 mm (0.0039 in.)
If the clearance is greater than maximum, replace the valve and
guide bushing (See page EM−49).
6. INSPECT AND GRIND VALVES
(a) Grind the valve enough to remove pits and carbon.
(b) Check that the valve is ground to the correct valve face angle.
Valve face angle: 44.5°
(c) Check the valve head margin thickness. Margin thickness:
Standard1.2 mm (0.047 in.)
Minimum1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
If the margin thickness is less than minimum, replace the valve.

(c) Using a spring tester, measure the tension of the valve
spring at the specified installed length.
Installed tension:
214 − 238 N (21.8 − 24.2 kgf, 48.1 − 53.4 lbf)
at 36.5 mm (1.437 in.)
If the installed tension is not as specified, replace the valve
spring.
9. INSPECT CAMSHAFTS
(a) Inspect for runout. (1) Place the camshaft on V−blocks.
(2) Using a dial indicator, measure the circle runout atthe center journal.
Maximum circle runout: 0.06 mm (0.0024 in.)
If the circle runout is greater than maximum, replace the cam-
shaft.
(b) Inspect the cam lobes. Using a micrometer, measure the cam lobe height.
Standard cam lobe height:
50.61 − 50.71 mm (1.9925 − 1.9965 in.)
Minimum cam lobe height: 50.51 mm (1.9886 in.)
If the cam lobe height is less than minimum, replace the cam-
shaft.
(c) Inspect the journals. Using a micrometer, measure the journal diameter.
Journal diameter:
26.959 − 26.975 mm (1.0614 − 1.0620 in.)
If the journal diameter is not as specified, check the oil clear-
ance.
(d) Inspect the camshaft bearings. Check that bearings for flaking and scoring.
If the bearings are damaged, replace the bearing caps and cyl-
inder head as a set.

(e) Inspect the gear spring
Using vernier calipers, measure the free distance be-
tween the spring ends.
Free distance: 18.2 − 18.8 mm (0.717 − 0.740 in.)
If the free distance is not as specified, replace the gear spring.
(f) Inspect the journal oil clearance. (1) Clean the bearing caps and camshaft journals.
(2) Place the camshafts on the cylinder head.

shaft. If necessary, replace the bearing caps and cylinder head
as a set. (7) Completely remove the Plastigage.
(g) Inspect the thrust clearance. (1) Install the camshaft (See page EM−54 ).
(2) Using a dial indicator, measure the thrust clearance
while moving the camshaft back and forth.
