Valve Clearance Adjustment - General Procedures

  1. Remove the camshafts. For additional information, refer to «Camshaft - In-Vehicle Procedures»(ref-311868-S33422267172009040700000) .
  2. Use compressed air to remove the shims that require replacing. Blow compressed air between the shim edge and bucket to dislodge the shim.
  3. Use the following formula to calculate the required shim thickness. Original shim thickness + measured clearance - desired clearance = required shim thickness.
  4. Apply a light coat of engine oil to the replacement shim(s) and install.
  5. Install the camshafts. For additional information, refer to «Camshaft - In-Vehicle Procedures»(ref-311868-S33422267172009040700000) .

Scheme 9: Valve Clearance Check - General Procedures
  1. Remove the left hand valve cover. For additional information, refer to «Valve Cover LH - In-Vehicle Procedures»(ref-311868-S07764859192009040700000) .
  2. Remove the right hand valve cover. For additional information, refer to «Valve Cover RH - In-Vehicle Procedures»(ref-311868-S32652954732009040700000) .
  3. Rotate the engine clockwise to position the camshaft lobe away from the shim surface.
  4. Using the feeler gauge set, measure the clearance between the camshaft and the shim surface. Record and check the readings. For additional information, refer to «Engine System - General Information»(ref-311855) . Adjust the clearances as necessary. For additional information, refer to «Valve Clearance Adjustment - General Procedures»(ref-311868-S08334323562009040700000) .
