b. Determine the replacement adjusting shim size according to these Formula or Charts:

1) Using a micrometer, measure the thickness of the removed shim.
2) Calculate the thickness of a new shim so the valve clearance comes within the specified value.

T-Thickness of used shim
A-Measured valve clearance
N-Thickness of new shim

Intake: N = T + (A - 0.20 mm (0.008 inch))
Exhaust: N = T + (A - 0.30 mm (0.012 inch))
 

3) Select a new shim with a thickness as close as possible to the calculated values.
