      *1 Timing Mark
      *2 Paint Mark
      *3 Groove

      Turn the crankshaft pulley until the groove and the timing mark "0" on the timing chain cover are aligned.

    2. Check that each timing mark on the camshaft timing gear and sprocket is aligned with each timing mark located on the No. 1 and No. 2 bearing caps as shown in the illustration.

      If not, turn the crankshaft pulley 1 revolution (360°) to align the timing marks as illustrated.

    3. Place paint marks on the chain in alignment with the timing marks on the camshaft timing gear and camshaft timing sprocket.

  7. CHECK VALVE CLEARANCE


    1. A00DU84E02
      Text in Illustration
      *1 No. 1 Cylinder TDC/Compression

      Check only the valves indicated in the illustration.


      1. Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance between the valve lifter and camshaft.

        Standard Valve Clearance (Cold)
        Item Specified Condition
        Intake 0.19 to 0.29 mm (0.00748 to 0.0114 in.)
        Exhaust 0.30 to 0.40 mm (0.0118 to 0.0157 in.)
      2. Record any out-of-specification valve clearance measurements. They will be used later to determine the required replacement valve clearance lifters.

    2. Turn the crankshaft 1 revolution (360°) and set the No. 4 cylinder to TDC/compression.

    3. A00DUJYE01
      Text in Illustration
      *1 No. 4 Cylinder TDC/Compression

      Check only the valves indicated in the illustration.


      1. Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance between the valve lifter and camshaft.

        Standard Valve Clearance (Cold)
        Item Specified Condition
        Intake 0.19 to 0.29 mm (0.00748 to 0.0114 in.)
        Exhaust 0.30 to 0.40 mm (0.0118 to 0.0157 in.)
      2. Record any out-of-specification valve clearance measurements. They will be used later to determine the required replacement valve lifters.

  8. ADJUST VALVE CLEARANCE


    1. Set the No. 1 cylinder to TDC/compression Click here.

    2. Remove the camshaft and No. 2 camshaft Click here.

    3. Remove the valve lifters.

    4. A00DRGUE01

      Using a micrometer, measure the thickness of the removed valve lifters.

    5. Calculate the thickness of a new lifter so that the valve clearance comes within the specified values.

      A Ideal new lifter thickness
      B Used lifter thickness
      C Measured valve clearance
      D Excess valve clearance
      New Lifter Thickness
      Item Specification
      Intake A = B + D
      Exhaust A = B + D
      for Intake
      D = C - 0.24 mm (0.00945 in.)
      for Exhaust
      D = C - 0.35 mm (0.0138 in.)

      Example (for Intake):

      5.250 mm (0.2067 in.) (B) + 0.16 mm (0.00630 in.) (D) (0.40 mm (0.0158 in.) (C) - 0.24 mm (0.00945 in.)) = 5.410 mm (0.2130 in.) (A)

      Tech Tips

      Replace the 5.250 mm (0.2067 in.) lifter (B) with a new No. 42 lifter.

    6. Select a new lifter with a thickness as close as possible to the calculated values.

      Tech Tips


      • Lifters are available in 35 sizes in increments of 0.020 mm (0.000787 in.), from 5.060 to 5.740 mm (0.1992 to 0.2260 in.).

      • A00DUKCE01

        The identification number inside the valve lifters shows the first 2 decimal places of the thickness value (the illustration shows 5.420 mm (0.2134 in.)).
