PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
3-7
Example:
If the valve pad is marked “155”, the pad
thickness is 1.55 mm (0.061 in).
d. Calculate the sum of the values obtained in
steps (b) and (c) to determine the required
valve pad thickness and the valve pad num-
ber.
Example:
1.55 mm (0.061 in) + 0.03 mm (0.001 in) =
1.58 mm (0.062 in)
The valve pad number is 158.
e. Round off the valve pad number according to
the following table, and then select the suit-
able valve pad.
Refer to the following table for the available
valve pads.
Example:
Valve pad number = 158
Rounded value = 160
New valve pad number = 160
f. Install the new valve pad “1” and the valve lift-
er “2”.
• Lubricate the valve lifter with engine oil.
• The valve lifter must turn smoothly when rotat-
ed by hand.
• Install the valve lifter and the valve pad in the
correct place.
g. Install the exhaust and intake camshafts, tim-
ing chain and camshaft caps.
• Refer to “CAMSHAFTS” on page 5-11.
• Lubricate the camshaft lobes and camshaft
journals.
• First, install the exhaust camshaft.
• Align the camshaft sprockets marks with the
cylinder head edge.
• Turn the crankshaft clockwise several full turns
to seat the parts.
h. Measure the valve clearance again.
i. If the valve clearance is still out of specifica-
tion, repeat all of the valve clearance adjust-
ment steps until the specified clearance is
obtained.

CHECKING THE ENGINE IDLING SPEED
Prior to adjusting the engine idling speed, the
throttle body synchronization should be adjusted
properly, the air filter element should be clean,
and the engine should have adequate compres-
sion.
1. Start the engine and let it warm up for several
minutes.
2. Check:
• Engine idling speed
Out of specification → Go to next step.
