    (1) Valve seat

    (2) Valve stem

    (3) Locknut

    (4) Adjusting screw

    3. It is not necessary to adjust the valve lash if the clearance is within the tolerance that is listed in Table 1.

    For four-cylinder engines, measure the valve lash (clearance) between valve seat (1) and valve stem (2)
    for the inlet valves of cylinders 1 and 2 and the exhaust valves of cylinders 1 and 3.

    For six-cylinder engines, measure the valve lash (clearance) between valve seat (1) and valve stem (2) for
    the inlet valves of cylinders 1, 2, and 4 and the exhaust valves of cylinders 1, 3, and 5.

    Table 1
    Valve Lash Check

    Inlet valves
    0.38 ± 0.08 mm (0.015 ± 0.003 inch)

    Exhaust valves
    0.75 ± 0.08 mm (0.030 ± 0.003 inch)

    If the clearance is within the tolerance, proceed to Step 4. Otherwise, adjust the valve lash to the
    specifications that are listed in Table 2.

    Table 2
    Valve Lash Setting

    Inlet valve
    0.38 mm (0.015 inch)

    Exhaust valve
    0.75 mm (0.030 inch)

    a. Loosen locknut (3) and adjusting screw (4) .

    b. Insert the appropriate feeler gauge between valve seat (1) and valve stem (2) .

    c. Tighten the adjusting screw until the valve seat and the valve stem contact the feeler gauge.

    d. Hold the adjusting screw in place and tighten the locknut to a torque of 29 ± 7 N·m (21 ± 5 lb ft).

    e. Verify that the setting is correct.

    4. Remove the timing bolt from the flywheel housing. Rotate the crankshaft for 360 degrees.

    For four-cylinder engines, measure the valve lash (clearance) between valve seat (1) and valve stem (2)
    for the inlet valves of cylinders 3 and 4 and the exhaust valves of cylinders 2 and 4.

    For six-cylinder engines, measure the valve lash for the inlet valves of cylinders 3, 5, and 6 and the
    exhaust valves of cylinders 2, 4, and 6.

    It is not necessary to adjust the valve lash if the clearance is within the tolerance that is listed in Table 1.

    If the clearance is within the tolerance, proceed to Step 5. Otherwise, adjust the valve lash to the
    specifications that are listed in Table 2. Follow the instructions in Step 3.a through 3.e.

    5. Remove the timing bolt from the flywheel.

    6. Install the cover for the valve mechanism.
