Engine mechanism - Valve clearanceValve clearanceAdjustment1. Remove engine plastic hood components.
2. Remove ignition coil components [4G18-3705110].
3. Remove cylinder head cover components [4G18-
1003130].
4. Remove engine right bottom shield.
5. Turn crankshaft to cylinder 1 compression top dead
center position.(a) Turn crankshaft pulley to align its groove with “o” mark on
timing chain hood.
(b) Check dot marks on camshaft timing sprocket and VVT
timing sprocket, and they should be in a line on timing chain
hood surface as shown in the diagram.
Hint: if not, turn crankshaft for one circle again
and align the above marks.6. Check valve clearance.(a) Only check the valves shown in the diagram.
(1) Measure the clearance between valve tappet and cam-
shaft with plug gauge.
(2) Record valve clearance measuring value exceeding
specification, and this value will be used to determine
valve tappet thickness that needs change.

turned to compression top dead center position.
(c) Only check the valves shown in the diagram. Measure valve
clearance (see step (a)).7. Remove drive beltSlowly turn drive belt tensioner clockwise to loosen it.
Then remove drive belt and put back drive belt tensioner slowly
and gently. 30 Mark

(b) Place wooden block between jack and engine, properly
place the jack, and then remove right engine mounting
assembly.9. Remove drive belt tensioner device [4G18-
1300200].Hint: operate the jack up and down to remove bolts.10. Adjust valve clearance.Note: do not turn crankshaft before installing chain
tensioner.
(a) Turn crankshaft to cylinder 1 top dead center position.
(b) Align the marks on timing chain and camshaft timing
sprocket.
(c) Remove 2 bolts and chain tensioner.
(d) Fix camshaft with adjustable wrench and then loosen
the fixed bolts of exhaust camshaft timing sprocket.
Note: be careful not to damage valve lifter.
(e) As sequences shown in the diagram, loosen camshaft
bearing cover bolts on exhaust camshaft at several
times and remove the bearing cover at the same time.

bearing cover bolts on intake camshaft at several times
and remove the bearing cover at the same time.
(h) Hold timing chain with hands and then remove the
camshaft.
(i) As shown in the diagram, tie up the chain with bandage.
Note: be careful not to let anything fall into the
timing chain hood.
(j) Remove valve lifter.
(k) Measure the thickness of this valve lifter with
micrometer.
(1) Calculate the thickness of new valve tappet and
adjust valve clearance within specification.: Exhaust: Hints:New valve tappet chosen should be near the value cal-
culated as much as possible.The thickness of valve tappet is from 5.06mm to 5.74mm,
and there is one specification every 0.02mm, therefore
there are totally 35 different dimensions to chose.
(m) As shown in the diagram, align alignment mark with tim-
ing mark on camshaft timing sprocket, and install timing
chain on the timing sprocket. 32Timing remarkchain linkTiming mark

Engine mechanism - Valve clearance(n) Check intake side camshaft bearing cover forward re-
mark and figure, and tighten the bolts as sequences
shown in the diagram.
Torque: (o) Align alignment mark on the chain with timing mark on
camshaft timing sprocket, and place exhaust camshaft
in cylinder head.
(p) Temporarily lock fixed bolts.
(q) Check exhaust side camshaft bearing cover forward
remark and figure, and tighten the bolts as sequences
shown in the diagram.
Torque: (r) Install camshaft front bearing cover.
Torque: (s) Fix camshaft with adjustable wrench and then tighten
the fixed bolts of camshaft timing sprocket.

Engine mechanism - Valve clearance(t) Check the matching marks on timing chain and cam-
shaft timing sprocket, and then align the groove of crank-
shaft pulley with the timing mark on timing chain hood
as shown in the diagram.
(u) Install chain tensioner.
(1) Check o-ring is clean, and buckle on the hook as
shown in the diagram.
(2) Coat engine oil on the chain tensioner, and then
install it.
Note: when installing the chain temsioner, buckle
on the hook again if plunger has ejected.
(3) Turn crankshaft counterclockwise to separate the
hook from lock pin on the plunger.Mark

make the plunger eject.11.Install cylinder head cover components.(a) Install cylinder head cover gasket on cylinder head cover.
(b) Eliminate all old sealant (FIPG) materials.
(c) Coat sealant on 2 positions shown in the diagram.
Notes:Wipe off all the oil stains on junction plane.After coating sealant, finish installation of cylinder head
cover within 3 minutes.After installing, do not refill engine oil within 2 minutes.
