      Text in Illustration 
      *1
      Intake Side
      *2
      Exhaust Side

      Valve clearance (Cold):
      Intake side:
      0.145 to 0.235 mm (0.00571 to 0.00925 in.)
      Exhaust side:

    A
    Thickness of new lifter
    B
    Thickness of used lifter
    C
    Measured valve clearance

    Valve clearance:
    Intake A = B + (C - 0.18 mm (0.0071 in.))
    Exhaust A = B + (C - 0.31 mm (0.0122 in.))

    HINT:
    1. Select a new lifter with a thickness as close to the calculated values as possible.
    2. Lifters are available in 29 sizes in increments of 0.020 mm (0.0008 in.), from 5.12 mm (0.2016 in.) to 5.68 mm (0.2236 in.).
    3. Refer to the New Lifter Thickness Table on the next 2 pages.

  1. Install the valve lifters (Click here).



  1. Install the No. 1 and No. 2 camshafts (Click here).
