• Rotate crankshaft pulley (1) one revolution (360 degrees) and
align TDC mark (no paint) (B) to timing indicator (A) on front
cover.
• By referring to the figure, measure the valve clearance at loca-
tions marked “×” as shown in the table below [locations indi-
cated with black arrow ( )] with a feeler gauge.
• No. 4 cylinder compression TDC
3. If out of standard, perform adjustment.
ADJUSTMENT
• Perform adjustment depending on selected head thickness of valve lifter.
1. Remove camshaft. Refer to EM-47, "
Removal and Installation".
2. Remove valve lifters at the locations that are out of the standard.
3. Measure the center thickness of the removed valve lifters with a
micrometer (A).

P O Use Undersize Bearing Usage Guide
• When the specified main bearing oil clearance is not obtained with standard size main bearings, use under-
size (US) bearing.
• When using undersize (US) bearing, measure the main bearing inner diameter with bearing installed, and
grind main journal so that the main bearing oil clearance satisfies the standard.
CAUTION:
In grinding crankshaft main journal to use undersize bearings,
keep the fillet R [1.5 - 1.7 mm (0.059 - 0.067 in)] (A).

CRANKSHAFT END PLAY
• Measure the clearance between thrust bearings and crankshaft
arm when crankshaft is moved fully forward or backward with a dial
indicator (A).
• If the measured value exceeds the limit, replace thrust bearings,
and measure again. If it still exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft
also.

• Measure the outer diameter of crankshaft main journals with a
micrometer (A).
• If out of the standard, measure the main bearing oil clearance.
Then use undersize bearing. Follow the "MAIN BEARING OIL
CLEARANCE" procedure.
CRANKSHAFT PIN JOURNAL DIAMETER
• Measure the outer diameter of crankshaft pin journal with a micrometer.
• If out of the standard, measure the connecting rod bearing oil clearance. Then use undersize bearing. Follow
the "CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" procedure.
OUT-OF-ROUND AND TAPER OF CRANKSHAFT
• Measure the dimensions at four different points as shown on each
main journal and pin journal with a micrometer.
• Out-of-round is indicated by the difference in dimensions between
“X” and “Y” at “A” and “B”.
• Taper is indicated by the difference in dimension between “A” and
“B” at “X” and “Y”.
• If the measured value exceeds the limit, correct or replace crankshaft.
• If corrected, measure the bearing oil clearance of the corrected main journal and/or pin journal. Then select
main bearing and/or connecting rod bearing. Follow the "MAIN BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" and/or "CON-
NECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" procedures.
CRANKSHAFT RUNOUT
• Place a V-block on a precise flat table to support the journals on
the both end of the crankshaft.
• Place a dial indicator (A) straight up on the No. 3 journal.
• While rotating crankshaft, read the movement of the pointer on the
dial indicator. (Total indicator reading)
• If it exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft.

• Measure the outer diameters (“d1”, “d2”) at two positions as shown.
• If reduction appears in places other than “B” range, regard it as
“d
2”.
• If it exceeds the limit (a large difference in dimensions), replace
main bearing cap bolt with a new one.
CONNECTING ROD BOLT OUTER DIAMETER
• Measure the outer diameter “d” at position as shown.
• If reduction appears in a position other than “d”, regard it as “d”.
• When “d” exceeds the limit (when it becomes thinner), replace
connecting rod bolt with a new one.
CLOGGED OR DAMAGED OIL FILTER (FOR INTAKE VALVE TIMING CONTROL)
• Make sure that there is no foreign material on the oil filter and
check it for clogging.
- Clean it if necessary.
• Check the oil filter for damage.
- Replace it if necessary.
FLYWHEEL DEFLECTION (M/T MODELS)
• Measure the deflection of flywheel contact surface to clutch with a
dial indicator (A).
• Measure the deflection at 210 mm (8.27 in) diameter.
• If measured value is out of the standard, replace flywheel.
• If a trace of burn or discoloration is found on the surface, repair it
with sandpaper.
CAUTION:
When measuring, keep magnetic fields (such as dial indicator
stand) away from signal plate of the rear end of crankshaft.
MOVEMENT AMOUNT OF FLYWHEEL (M/T MODELS)
CAUTION:
Never disassemble double mass flywheel.
Movement Amount of Thrust (Fore-and-Aft) Direction

FRONT SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY
FRONT SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY
On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceINFOID:0000000001703721
Make sure the mounting conditions (looseness, back lash) of each component and component conditions
(wear, damage) are normal.
INSPECTION OF LOWER BALL JOINT END PLAY
1. Set front wheels in a straight-ahead position. Do not depress brake pedal.
2. Place an iron bar or similar tool between transverse link and steering knuckle.
3. Measure axial end play by prying it up and down.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage ball joint boot. Do not damage the installation position by applying
excessive force.
STRUT INSPECTION
Check for oil leakage, damage and replace as necessary.
Wheel Alignment InspectionINFOID:0000000001703722
PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
WARNING:
Always adjust the alignment with the vehicle on a flat surface.
NOTE:
If alignment is out of specification, inspect and replace any damaged or worn rear suspension parts before
making any adjustments.
1. Check and adjust the wheel alignment with the vehicle under unladen conditions. “Unladen conditions”
means that the fuel, coolant, and lubricant are full; and that the spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats are in
their designated positions.
2. Check the tires for incorrect air pressure and excessive wear.
3. Check the wheels for run out and damage. Refer to WT-5, "
Inspection" .
4. Check the wheel bearing axial end play. Refer to FA X - 5 , "
On-Vehicle Inspection and Service" .
5. Check the shock absorbers for leaks or damage.
6. Check each mounting point of the suspension components for any excessive looseness or damage.
7. Check each link, arm, and the suspension member for any damage.
8. Check the vehicle height. Refer to FSU-17, "
Wheelarch Height (Unladen*)" .
GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. A Four-Wheel Thrust Alignment should be performed.
• This type of alignment is recommended for any NISSAN vehicle.
• The four-wheel “thrust” process helps ensure that the vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel
is centered.
• The alignment machine itself should be capable of accepting any NISSAN vehicle.
• The alignment machine should be checked to ensure that it is level.
2. Make sure the alignment machine is properly calibrated.
• Your alignment machine should be regularly calibrated in order to give correct information.
• Check with the manufacturer of your specific alignment machine for their recommended Service/Cali-
bration Schedule.
THE ALIGNMENT PROCESS
IMPORTANT: Use only the alignment specifications listed in this Service Manual. Refer to FSU-16, "Wheel
Alignment (Unladen*)" .
1. When displaying the alignment settings, many alignment machines use “indicators”: (Green/red, plus or
minus, Go/No Go). Do NOT use these indicators.
• The alignment specifications programmed into your alignment machine that operate these indicators
may not be correct.Axial end play : 0 mm (0 in)
