(c) Inspect the valves indicated in the illustration on the left.
(1) Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance be-
tween the valve lifter and camshaft.
Valve clearance (Cold):
0.15 to 0.25 mm (0.0059 to 0.0098 in.) for intake
0.25 to 0.35 mm (0.0098 to 0.0138 in.) for exhaust
(2) Record the out-of-specification valve clearance
measurements. They will be used later to select an
adjusting shim to replace.
(d) Turn the crankshaft by 2/3 of a revolution (240), then in-
spect the valves indicated in the illustration on the left.
(1) Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance be-
tween the valve lifter and camshaft.

HINT:

Apply SST (B) at a slight angle on the side marked with
º9º or º7º at the position shown in the illustration.
