STANDARD PROCEDUREÐVALVE LASH
ADJUSTMENT AND VERIFICATION
NOTE: To obtain accurate readings, valve lash mea-
surements AND adjustments should only be per-
formed when the engine coolant temperature is less
than 60É C (140É F).
The 24±valve overhead system is a ªlow-mainte-
nanceº design. Routine adjustments are no longer
necessary, however, measurement should still take
place when trouble-shooting performance problems,or upon completion of a repair that includes removal
and installation of the valve train components.
(1) Disconnect battery negative cables.
(2) Remove cylinder head cover (Fig. 47) (Refer to
9 - ENGINE/CYLINDER HEAD/CYLINDER HEAD
COVER(S) - REMOVAL).
(3) Remove the crankcase breather and vapor can-
ister (Fig. 48).
(4) Using the crankshaft barring tool #7471±B,
rotate the engine and align the pump gear mark with
the top dead center (TDC) mark on the gear housing
cover (Fig. 49).
(5) With the engine in this position (pump gear
mark at 12 o'clock), valve lash can be measured at
the following rocker arms:INTAKE 1±2±4 /
EXHAUST 1±3±5. Measure the valve lash by insert-
ing a feeler gauge between the rocker arm socket and
crosshead (Fig. 50). Refer to VALVE LASH LIMIT
CHART for the correct specifications. If the measure-
ment fallswithinthe limits, adjustment/resettingis
notnecessary. If measurement finds the lashout-
sideof the limits, adjustment/resettingisrequired.

INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION - 5.9L/8.0L
The 2±wire Intake Manifold Air Temperature (IAT)
sensor is installed in the intake manifold with the
sensor element extending into the air stream.
The IAT sensor is a two-wire Negative Thermal
Coefficient (NTC) sensor. Meaning, as intake mani-
fold temperature increases, resistance (voltage) in thesensor decreases. As temperature decreases, resis-
tance (voltage) in the sensor increases.
OPERATION - 5.9L/8.0L
The IAT sensor provides an input voltage to the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) indicating the
density of the air entering the intake manifold based
upon intake manifold temperature. At key-on, a
5±volt power circuit is supplied to the sensor from
the PCM. The sensor is grounded at the PCM
through a low-noise, sensor-return circuit.
The PCM uses this input to calculate the following:
²Injector pulse-width
²Adjustment of spark timing (to help prevent
spark knock with high intake manifold air-charge
temperatures)
The resistance values of the IAT sensor is the same
as for the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor.
REMOVAL
REMOVAL - 5.9L
The intake manifold air temperature sensor is
located in the front/side of the intake manifold (Fig.
33).
(1) Remove air cleaner assembly.
(2) Disconnect electrical connector at sensor (Fig.
33).
