VALVE CLEARANCE
INSPECTION
HINT:
Inspect and adjust the valve clearance when the engine is cold.
1. DISCONNECT PCV HOSES FROM CYLINDER HEAD
COVER
2. REMOVE HIGH- TENSION CORDS AND IGNITION
COILS FROM SPARK PLUGS
3. REMOVE CYLINDER HEAD COVER
(a) Remove the oil filler cap.
(b) Remove the 5 cap nuts and seal washers.
(c) Pry out the cylinder head cover, and remove the cover
and gasket.
4. SET NO.1 CYLINDER TO TDC/COMPRESSION
(a) Turn the crankshaft pulley, and align its groove with the
timing mark º0º of the No.1 timing belt cover.
(b) Check that the valve lifters on the No.1 cylinder are loose
and valve lifters on the No.4 cylinder are tight.
If not, turn the crankshaft 1 complete revolution (360°) and align
the marks as above.
5. INSPECT VALVE CLEARANCE
(a) Check only the valves indicated.
(1) Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance be-
tween the valve lifter and camshaft.
(2) Record the out-of-specification valve clearance
measurements. They will be used later to determine
the required replacement adjusting shim.
Valve clearance (Cold):
Intake0.15 - 0.25 mm (0.006 - 0.010 in.)
Exhaust0.31 - 0.41 mm (0.012 - 0.016 in.)

(b) Turn the crankshaft pulley 1 revolution (360°) and align
its groove with the timing mark º0º of the No.1 timing belt
cover.
(c) Check only the valves indicated as shown. Measure the
valve clearance (See procedure in step (a)).
6. ADJUST VALVE CLEARANCE
(a) Remove the adjusting shim.
(1) Turn the crankshaft to position the cam lobe of the
camshaft on the adjusting valve points upward.
(2) Position the notch of the valve lifter so that the shim
can be removed with a small screwdriver as shown
in the illustration.
(3) Using SST (A), press down the valve lifter and place
SST (B) between the camshaft and valve lifter
flange. Remove SST (A).
SST 09248-55040 (09248-05410, 09248-05420)
HINT:
Apply SST (B) at slight angle on the side marked with º9º,
at the position shown in the illustration.
Set SST (A) at position A, if position A is too narrow, at
position B, as shown in the illustration.
(4) Remove the adjusting shim with a small screwdriver
and magnetic finger.

REMOVE DRIVE BELT
3. REMOVE GENERATOR DRIVE BELT
4. SLIGHTY JACK UP ENGINE
5. SLIGHTLY JACK UP ENGINE
Raise the engine enough to remove the weight from the engine
mounting on the right side.
6. REMOVE RH ENGINE MOUNTING INSULATOR
(a) Remove the bolt and disconnect the ground strap.
(b) Remove the through bolt, 2 bolts, nut and mounting insu-
lator.
7. REMOVE NO.2 TIMING BELT COVER
Remove the 4 bolts, timing belt cover and gasket.
8. SET NO.1 CYLINDER TO TDC/COMPRESSION
(a) Turn the crankshaft pulley, and align its groove with the
timing mark º0º of the No.1 timing belt cover.
NOTICE:
Always turn the crankshaft clockwise.
(b) Check that the hole of the camshaft timing pulley on the
side with the 5E mark is aligned with the timing mark of the
No.1 bearing cap.
If not, turn the crankshaft pulley 1 complete revolution (360°).
9. w/ A/C and/or w/ PS:
REMOVE NO.2 CRANKSHAFT PULLEY
Remove the 4 bolts and No.2 crankshaft pulley.
