Valve Clearance: Service and Repair
Valve-Valve Clearance, Adjust
Special Tool(s)
Removal
1. Remove the timing belt.
2. Remove the camshaft alignment tool.
3. NOTE: Measure each valve's clearance at base circle with the lobe pointed away from the tappet, before removing the camshafts. Failure to
measure all clearances prior to removing the camshafts will necessitate repeated removal and installation and wasted labor time.
Use a feeler gauge to measure each valves clearance and record its location.
4. Remove the camshafts.
5. CAUTION: If the camshaft and valve tappets are to be reused, mark the location of the valve tappets to make sure that they are assembled in
their original positions.
