Valve Clearance Check

Valve Clearance Check
1. Remove the valve covers.
2. Remove the spark plugs.





3. NOTE: The engine will have to be rotated with the crankshaft pulley bolt to bring each valve to base circle.

NOTE: The valve clearance must be measured with the camshaft at base circle.

Measure and record all valve clearances.
4. If the valve clearances are out of specification, refer to Valve Clearance Adjustment.
5. To assemble, reverse the inspection procedure.
