142. Measure the thickness of the shim with a micro-
meter. Calculate the thickness of the shim which
gives the right clearance.
Ex: Measured clearance: 0.30 mm, (0.012 in.),
correct clearance: 0.40 mm (0.016 in).
Clearance difference: –0.10 mm (0.004 in.).
Measured thickness on the existing shim:
3.80 mm (0.150 in.).
Correct thickness of the new shim:
3.80–0.10 = 3.70 mm. (0.150–0.004 = 0.146 in.).
