Apply SST (B) at a slight angle on the side marked with "9" or "7", at the position.

When SST (B) is inserted too deeply, it will get pinched by the shim. To prevent it from being stuck, insert it gently from the intake
side, at a slight angle.
4. Using a small screwdriver and magnetic finger, remove the adjusting shim.
b. Determine the replacement adjusting shim size by following the 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.
