ADJUST VALVE CLEARANCE
(a) Remove the distributor (See page IG−10).
(b) Remove the camshafts (See page EM−28).
(c) Remove the adjusting shim with a small screwdriver.
(d) Determine the replacement adjusting shim size by follow- ing the Formula or Charts:

sible to the calculated value.

2. REPLACE OVERSIZED (O/S) PISTONS FOR CYLIN-
DER BORING
HINT:
Bore all the 6 cylinders for the O/S piston outside diame-
ter.
Replace all the piston rings with ones to match the O/S
pistons.
(a) Keep 6 new O/S pistons. O/S piston diameter:
O/S 0.50100.450 − 100.480 mm (3.9547 − 3.9559 in.)

angles to the piston pin center line, 42 mm (1.65 in.) from
the piston head.
(c) Calculate the amount of each cylinder is to be rebored as
follows:
Size to be rebored = P + C − H
P = Piston diameter
C = Piston oil clearance
0.040 − 0.060 mm (0.0016 − 0.0024 in.)
H = Allowance for honing
0.02 mm (0.0008 in.) or less
(d) Bore and hone the cylinders to calculated dimensions. Maximum honing: 0.02 mm (0.0008 in.)

(1) Using a screwdriver and a hammer, tap out the oilseal.
(2) Using SST and a hammer, tap in a new oil seal until
its surface is flush with the timing chain cover edge.
SST 09316−60011 (09316 −00011, 09316−00051)
(3) Apply MP grease to the oil seal lip.
NOTICE:
