TIP
• Cover the timing chain opening with a rag to
prevent the valve pad from falling into the
crankcase.
• Make a note of the position of each valve lifter
"1" and valve pad "2" so that they can be in-
stalled in the correct place.

b. Calculate the difference between the speci-
fied valve clearance and the measured valve
clearance.
Example:
Specified valve clearance = 0.10–0.20 mm
(0.0039–0.0079 in)
▲▲▲
Measured valve clearance = 0.27 mm
(0.0106 in)
0.27 mm (0.0106 in)–0.20 mm (0.0079 in) =
0.07 mm (0.0028 in)
c. Check the thickness of the current valve pad,
and then calculate the sum of the values ob-
▼▼▼
tained to determine the required valve pad
thickness and the valve pad number.
TIP
• The number "a" marked on the valve pad indi-
cate the valve pad thickness.
• Refer to the following table for the available
valve pads.
• If there are no available valve pads with the
same thickness as the calculated valve pad
thickness, select the next thickest valve pad.
