NOTE: Record each valve clearance after measurement.





2) Remove the camshaft.
3) Remove the valve lifter.
4) Measure the thickness of valve lifter using micrometer.





5) Select a valve lifter of suitable thickness from this table using the measured valve clearance and valve lifter thickness.
