5. Turn the inlet V.V.T. sprocket housing in the right 

and left directions. Check it smoothly moves in the 
range of A (approximately 
12.5

°<4B11>,approximately 20°<4B12>)

NOTE: The stopper pin is locked in the most 
retarded angle position.

6. .After the check, remove the inlet V.V.T. sprocket 

from the inlet camshaft

7. Completely remove the tape sealing the inlet 

camshaft ports for the advanced angle and for the 
retarded angle.

VALVE CLEARANCE ADJUSTMENT

Measure valve clearance in the following procedure.
Check and adjust the valve clearance with the timing 
chain installed.

CAUTION

Always rotate the crankshaft clockwise.

Timing mark

1. Rotate the crankshaft clockwise to align the timing 

mark of the inlet V.V.T. sprocket and the exhaust 
camshaft sprocket with the top surface of the 
cylinder head as illustrated. (Set the No. 1 piston 
at top dead centre on the compression stroke.)

3. Use a thickness gauge to measure clearance 

between the camshaft and valve tappet.

Standard value (cold engine)

Inlet side: 0.20 

± 0.03 mm

Exhaust side: 0.30 

± 0.03 mm

4. If measured values are out of the standard value, 

record measured values.

5. Rotate the crankshaft by one turn clockwise to set 

the No. 4 piston at top dead centre on the 
compression stroke.

NOTE: The timing mark of the exhaust camshaft 
sprocket must be at the illustrated position.

NOTE: There are 47 kinds of valve tappets at 
intervals of 0.015 mm in the range between 3.000 
and 3.690 mm.

9. Select a valve tappet in the following procedure.

(1) Measure thickness of a removed valve tappet.
(2) Calculate thickness of a valve tappet so that 

valve clearance meets the standard value.

A: Thickness of valve tappet to be selected
B: Thickness of removed valve tappet
C: Measured valve clearance

Formula
Inlet side: A = B + (C 

 0.20 mm)

Exhaust side: A = B + (C 

 0.30 mm)

Refer to "Removal and installation of camshaft" for 
removal, installation and inspection procedure of 
valve tappets.

CAUTION

Loosing the installation bolts for the camshaft 
bearing cap at the same time causes the valve 
spring force, which makes the installation bolts 
jump out, resulting in the damaged threads. 
Always loose them in several stages.
First remove a mounting bolt of the front camshaft 
bearing cap and then a mounting bolt of each cam-
shaft bearing cap in the order shown in the illustra-
tion.

<<B>> VALVE TAPPET REMOVAL

Pick out valve tappets with fingers and store 
removed valve tappets with tags describing the 
installed position attached for reassembly.
