Valve Clearance Check
- Remove the valve cover. For additional information, refer to «VALVE COVER»(ref-234427-S11704634312006060900000) .
- Use a feeler gauge to measure each valve's clearance and record its location.
- intake: 0.22-0.28 mm (0.008-0.011 inch) exhaust: 0.27-0.33 mm (0.010-0.013 inch) 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 TAPPETS»(ref-234427-S28466906932006060900000) .

MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS
| CAUTION | During engine repair procedures, cleanliness is extremely important. Any foreign material, including any material created while cleaning gasket surfaces, that enters the oil passages, coolant passages or the oil pan can cause engine failure. |
| CAUTION | The crankshaft, the crankshaft sprocket and the pulley are fitted together by friction, using diamond washers between the flange faces on each part. For that reason, the crankshaft sprocket is also unfastened if you loosen the pulley. Therefore, the engine must be retimed each time the damper is removed. Otherwise severe damage can occur. |
