Valve Clearance Check
- Remove the valve cover. For additional information, refer to «VALVE COVER»(ref-232196-S28771703582006051600000) .
- Use a feeler gauge to measure the clearance of each valve and record its location.
- Select tappets using this formula: tappet thickness = measured clearance + the base tappet thickness - most desirable thickness. Select the tappets and mark the installation location.
- If any tappets do not measure within specifications, install new tappets in these locations. For additional information, refer to «VALVE TRAIN COMPONENTS - EXPLODED VIEW»(ref-232196-S29415280792006051600000) and «VALVE TAPPETS»(ref-232196-S03343573882006051600000) .

- With vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist. For additional information, refer to «JACKING AND LIFTING»(ref-232183) .
- Release the fuel system pressure. For additional information, refer to «FUEL SYSTEM-GENERAL INFORMATION»(ref-232262) .
- Disable the vehicle high voltage electrical system. For additional information, refer to «HIGH VOLTAGE TRACTION BATTERY»(ref-232253) .
- Remove the fuel rail. For additional information, refer to «FUEL CHARGING AND CONTROLS - 2.3L»(ref-232221) .
- Remove the throttle body. For additional information, refer to «FUEL CHARGING AND CONTROLS - HYBRID»(ref-232223) .
- Remove the accessory drive belt tensioner. For additional information, refer to «ACCESSORY DRIVE - HYBRID»(ref-232226) .
- Remove the oil level indicator and tube. For additional information, refer to «OIL LEVEL INDICATOR AND TUBE»(ref-232196-S33187940022006051600000) .
- Disconnect the oil pressure sender electrical connector.
- Disconnect the temperature manifold absolute pressure (TMAP) sensor electrical connector and the pin-type retainer.
- Disconnect the swirl control valve electrical connector.
- Disconnect the intake manifold runner control (IMRC) actuator electrical connector.
- If equipped, disconnect the block heater electrical harness connector.
- Disconnect the knock sensor (KS) electrical connector and detach the pin-type retainer.
- Disconnect the fuel vapor return hose from the intake manifold.
- Disconnect the vacuum tube. Depress the quick release locking ring. Pull the vacuum tube out of the quick release fitting.
- Remove the 8 bolts and position the intake manifold aside to access the crankcase vent hose clamp and the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) tube. To install, tighten to 18 Nm (13 lb-ft).
- Release the clamp and disconnect the crankcase vent hose.
- Remove the EGR tube. To install, tighten to 55 Nm (41 lb-ft).
