Inspecting and Adjusting
Intake / Exhaust Valve Clearance
Proper adjustment is necessary to
maintain the correct timing for opening and
closing the valves. Improper adjustment
will cause the engine to run noisily,
resulting in poor engine performance and
engine damage. Consult authorized
Yanmar Marine dealer or distributor to
adjust the intake / exhaust valve
clearance.
