Toyota 22R-E - Inspect Valve Lifters and Lifter Bores

(f) Measure the Plastigage at its widest point.
Standard oil clearance:
0.025 – 0.066 mm (0.0010 – 0.0026 in.)
Maximum oil clearance:
0.10 mm (0.0039 in.)
If the oil clearance is greater than maximum, replace
the camshaft. If necessary, replace the bearing caps
and cylinder head as a set.
(g) Completely remove the Plastigage.
(h) Remove the camshafts.
F. Inspect camshaft thrust clearance
(a) Install the camshaft.
(See step 5 on pages EG2–78 and 79)
(b) Using a dial indicator, measure the thrust clearance
while moving the camshaft back and forth.
Standard thrust clearance:
0.080 – 0.190 mm (0.0031 – 0.0075 in.)
Maximum thrust clearance:
0.25 mm (0.0098 in.)
If the thrust clearance is greater than maximum, re–
place the camshaft. If necessary, replace the bearing
caps and cylinder head as a set.
(c) Remove the camshafts.
11. INSPECT VALVE LIFTERS AND LIFTER BORES
(a) Using a caliper gauge, measure the lifter bore diame–
ter of the clinder head.
Lifter bore diameter:
37.960 – 37.975 mm (1.4945 – 1.4951 in.)
(d) Install the bearing caps.
(See step 5 on pages EG2–78 and 79)
Torque: 16 N–m (160 kgf–cm, 12 ft–lbf)
NOTICE: Do not turn the camshaft.
(e) Remove the bearing caps.
