Available thickness of valve lifter: 27 sizes with range 7.88 to 8.40 mm (0.3102 to 0.3307 in) in steps of 0.02 mm (0.0008 in) (when manufactured at factory).

- Remove ignition coil and spark plug from each cylinder. Refer to «IGNITION COIL»(ref-356257-S33776163312010021300000) and «SPARK PLUG (IRIDIUM-TIPPED TYPE)»(ref-356257-S34050864512010021300000) .
- Connect engine tachometer (not required in use of CONSULT-III).
- Install compression tester (commercial service tool) with adapter onto spark plug hole. Use the adapter whose picking up end inserted to spark plug hole is smaller than 20 mm (0.79 in) in diameter. Otherwise, it may be caught by cylinder head during removal.
- With accelerator pedal fully depressed, turn ignition switch to "START" for cranking. When the gauge pointer stabilizes, read the compression pressure and engine rpm. Perform these steps to check each cylinder. Compression pressure: COMPRESSION PRESSURE SPECIFICATION Unit: kPa (kg/cm 2 , psi)/rpm Standard Minimum Differential limit between cylinders 1,275 (13.0, 185)/300 981 (10.0, 142)/300 98 (1.0, 14)/300 CAUTION: Always use a fully charged battery to obtain specified engine speed. If the engine speed is out of specified range, check battery liquid for proper gravity. Check engine speed again with normal battery gravity. If compression pressure is below minimum value, check valve clearances and parts associated with combustion chamber (valve, valve seat, piston, piston ring, cylinder bore, cylinder head, cylinder head gasket). After the checking, measure compression pressure again. If some cylinders have low compression pressure, pour small amount of engine oil into the spark plug hole of the cylinder to recheck it for compression. If the added engine oil improves the compression, piston rings may be worn out or damaged. Check the piston rings and replace if necessary. If the compression pressure remains at low level despite the addition of engine oil, valves may be malfunctioning. Check valves for damage. Replace valve or valve seat accordingly. If two adjacent cylinders have respectively low compression pressure and their compression remains low even after the addition of engine oil, cylinder head gaskets are leaking. In such a case, replace cylinder head gaskets.
