b. Calculate the difference between the speci-
fied valve clearance and the measured valve
clearance.
Example:
Specified valve clearance = 0.15–0.22 mm
(0.0059–0.0087 in)
Measured valve clearance = 0.25 mm
(0.0098 in)
0.25 mm (0.0098 in) - 0.22 mm (0.0087 in) =
0.03 mm (0.001 in)
c. Check the thickness of the current valve pad.
TIP
The thickness "a" of each valve pad is marked in
hundredths of millimeters on the side that touch-
es the valve lifter.
Example:
If the valve pad is marked "155", the pad
thickness is 1.55 mm (0.061 in).
d. Calculate the sum of the values obtained in
steps (b) and (c) to determine the required
valve pad thickness and the valve pad num-
ber.
Example:
1.55 mm (0.061 in) + 0.03 mm (0.001 in) =
1.58 mm (0.062 in)
The valve pad number is 158.
e. Round off the valve pad number according to
the following table, and then select the suit-
able valve pad.

Available valve pads
Example:
Valve pad number = 158
Rounded value = 160
New valve pad number = 160
f. Install the new valve pad "1" and the valve lift-
er "2".
TIP
• Lubricate the valve lifter with engine oil.
• The valve lifter must turn smoothly when rotat-
ed by hand.
• Install the valve lifter and the valve pad in the
correct place.
g. Install the exhaust and intake camshafts, tim-
ing chain and camshaft caps.

10 Nm (1.0 m·kgf, 7.2 ft·lbf)
TIP
• Refer to "CAMSHAFTS" on page 5-12.
• Lubricate the camshaft lobes and camshaft
journals.
• First, install the exhaust camshaft.
• Align the camshaft sprockets marks with the
cylinder head edge.
• Turn the crankshaft clockwise several full turns
to seat the parts.
h. Measure the valve clearance again.
i. If the valve clearance is still out of specifica-
tion, repeat all of the valve clearance adjust-
ment steps until the specified clearance is
obtained.
