Valve clearance
Adjustment steps:
Loosen the timing chain tensioner cap
bolt.
Remove the timing chain tensioner and
camshaft caps.
NOTE:
Remove the camshaft cap bolts in a criss-
cross pattern from the outside working
inwards.
Remove the camshaft (intake 1 and
exhaust 2).
NOTE:
Attach a wire 3 to the timing chain to pre-
vent it from falling into the crankcase.
Remove the decompression guide 4,
cable 5, bolt 6 and decompression shaft
7.
Remove the valve lifters 8 and the pads
9.
NOTE:
Place a rag in the timing chain space to
prevent pads from falling into the crank-
case.
Identity each valve lifter and pad position
very carefully so that they can be rein-
stalled in their original place.
Select the proper pad using the pad
selecting table.

REMOVAL POINTS
Camshaft
1. Remove:
Timing plug 1
Straight plug 2
2. Align:
“I” mark
With stationary pointer.
Checking steps:
Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise with
a wrench.
Align the “I” mark a on the rotor with the
stationary pointer b on the crankcase
cover. When the “I” mark is aligned with
the stationary pointer, the piston is at the
Top Dead Center (T.D.C.).
NOTE:
In order to be sure that the piston is at Top
Dead Center, the punch mark c on the
exhaust camshaft and the punch mark d
on the intake camshaft must align with the
cylinder head surface, as shown in the
illustration.
If there is no clearance, rotate the crank-
shaft counterclockwise one turn.
3. Loosen:
Tensioner cap bolt 1
4. Remove:
Timing chain tensioner 2
5. Remove:
Bolt (camshaft cap) 1
Camshaft caps 2
NOTE:
Remove the bolts (camshaft cap) in a criss-
cross pattern, working from the outside in.
CAUTION:
The bolts (camshaft cap) must be removed
evenly to prevent damage to the cylinder
head, camshafts or camshaft caps.
