Inspect and adjust the valve clearance when the engine is cold.

2. SET NO.1 CYLINDER TO TDC/COMPRESSION
(a) Turn the crankshaft pulley, and align its groove with timing
mark "0" of the No.1 timing belt cover.
(b) Check that the valve lifters on the No.1 cylinder are loose
and valve lifters on the No.4 are tight.
If not, turn the crankshaft one revolution (360°) and align the
mark as above.
3. INSPECT VALVE CLEARANCE
(a) Check only the valves indicated.
(1) Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance be-
tween the valve lifter and camshaft.
(2) Record the out–of–specification valve clearance
measurements. They will be used later to determine
the required replacement adjusting shim.
