Check for proper camshaft position sensor clearance
using the sensor depth gauge to determine if shims are
required for sensor depth. The camshaft position sensor
clearance specification is 0.7–1.5 mm (0.02–0.06 inch).
1 Rotate the engine until a tooth of the camshaft toothed
wheel is aligned with the sensor bore.
2 Insert the depth gauge into the sensor bore until the
outer part of the gauge is fully seated against the
timing gear cover.
3 Loosen the thumb screw of the gauge and push the
inner part of the gauge in until it contacts a tooth of
the toothed wheel.
4 Tighten the thumb screw to secure the inner part of
the gauge.
5 Carefully remove the gauge from the camshaft sensor
bore.
6 Use a depth micrometer to measure the gauge from
the bottom of the gauge collar to the end of the gauge
shaft. Record your measurement.
7 Determine the number of shims required using the
table below.
