Valve Clearance: Specifications

NOTE:  The number on the valve tappet only reflects the digits that follow the decimal. For example, a tappet with the number 0.650 has the thickness
of 3.650 mm.

NOTE:  A midrange clearance is the most desirable:

^

Intake:  ....................................................................................................................................................................  0.22-0.28 mm (0.008-0.011 inch)

^

Exhaust:  .................................................................................................................................................................  0.27-0.33 mm (0.010-0.013 inch)
