(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).
