(1) Cylinder Head and Valves

Top Clearance
1. Remove the cylinder head.
2. With the piston at TDC, use grease to affix three or four
plastigauges (1) of a diameter 1.5 mm (0.059 in.) x 5.0 to
7.0 mm (0.20 to 0.27 in.) long to the crown of the piston; keep
the gauges away from the intake valve and combustion
chamber fittings.
3. Take the piston to an intermediate position, install the cylinder
head and tighten the head bolts to the specified torque.
4. Turn the crankshaft so the piston goes through TDC.
5. Remove the cylinder head and compare the width of the
crushed plastigauges (2) with the scale (3).
6. If they are out of spec, check the oil clearance of the crank pin,
journal and piston pins.

figure. Measure the clearance with a feeler gauge.
3. If the measurement is more than the allowable limit, make it
straight with a surface grinder.
