Shims are available in 17 sizes in increments of 0.050 mm

(0.0020 in.), from 2.500 mm (0.0984 in.) to 3.300 mm (0.1299

VALVE CLEARANCE

Using SST (A), press down the valve lifter and place

SST (B) between the camshaft and valve lifter. Re-

move SST (A).

09248–55040 (09248–05410, 09248–05420)

Apply SST (B) at a slight angle on the side marked with

"9" or "7", at the position shown in the illustration.

When SST (B) is inserted too deeply, it will get pinched by

the shim. To prevent it from being stuck, insert it gently

from the intake side, at a slight angle.

Using a small screwdriver and magnetic finger, remove

the adjusting shim.

Determine the replacement adjusting shim size according

to these Formula or Charts:

Using a micrometer, measure the thickness of the

removed shim.

Calculate the thickness of a new shim so the valve

clearance comes within the specified value.

T .......... Thickness of used shim

A .......... Measured valve clearance

N .......... Thickness of new shim

N = T + (A – 0.20 mm (0.008 in.))

N = T + (A – 0.30 mm (0.012 in.))

Select a new shim with a thickness as close as pos-

sible to the calculated values.
