(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.

(b) Determine the replacement adjusting shim size by the fol-
lowing Formula or Charts on the next 2 pages:
(1) Using a micrometer, measure the thickness of the
removed shim.
(2) Calculate the thickness of a new shim so that the
valve clearance comes within specified value.
T ....... Thickness of removed shim
A ....... Measured valve clearance
N ....... Thickness of new shim
Intake:
N = T + (A - 0.20 mm (0.008 in.))
Exhaust:
N = T + (A - 0.36 mm (0.014 in.))
Select a new shim with a thickness as close as possible
to the calculated value.
HINT:
Shims are available in 17 increments of 0.05 mm (0.0020 in.),
from 2.50 mm (0.0984 in.) to 3.30 mm (0.1299 in.).
(c) Install a new adjusting shim.
(1) Place a new adjusting shim on the valve lifter.
(2) Using SST (A), press down the valve lifter and re-
move SST (B).
SST 09248-55040 (09248-05410, 09248-05020)
(d) Recheck the valve clearance.
7. REINSTALL CYLINDER HEAD COVER
(a) Apply seal packing to the cylinder head as shown in the
illustration.
Seal packing:
Part No. 08826-00080 or equivalent
(b) Install the gasket to the cylinder head cover.
(c) Install the cylinder head cover with the 5 seal washers and
cap nuts.
Torque: 7.0 N´m (70 kgf´cm, 61 in.´lbf)
(d) Install oil filler cap.
