Measure the following parts if out of the limit.
–Dimension “A” for camshaft No. 1 journal
–Dimension “B” for cylinder head No. 1 journal

Refer to the standards above, and then replace camshaft and/or
cylinder head.
Camshaft Sprocket Runout
1. Put V-block on precise flat table, and support No. 2 and No. 5 journal of camshaft.
CAUTION:
Do not support journal No. 1 (on the side of camshaft sprocket) because it has a different diameter
from the other three locations.
2. Measure camshaft sprocket runout with dial indicator. (Total indi-
cator reading)

If it exceeds the limit, replace camshaft sprocket.
Valve Lifter and Adjusting Shim
Check if surface of valve lifter and adjusting shim has any wear or
cracks.

If anything above is found, replace valve lifter.

When replacing adjusting shim, refer to EM-217, "ADJUST-
MENT" .
Valve Lifter Clearance
VALVE LIFTER OUTER DIAMETER

Measure outer diameter of valve lifter with micrometer.Standard : 30.500 - 30.548 mm (1.2008 - 1.2027 in)
Standard : 30.360 - 30.385 mm (1.1953 - 1.1963 in)

Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45

If out of the standard, measure the main bearing oil clearance. Then use undersize bearing. Refer to EM-
264, "MAIN BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" .
CRANKSHAFT PIN JOURNAL DIAMETER

Measure outer diameter of crankshaft pin journal with microme-
ter.

If out of the standard, measure the connecting rod bearing oil
clearance. Then use undersize bearing. Refer to EM-263,
"CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" .
CRANKSHAFT OUT-OF-ROUND AND TAPER

Measure the dimensions at four different points shown in the fig-
ure on each main journal and pin journal with micrometer.

Out-of-round is indicated by the difference in dimensions
between “X” and “Y” at “A” and “B”.

Taper is indicated by the difference in dimension between “A”
and “B” at “X” and “Y”.

If the measured value exceeds the limit, correct or replace crankshaft.

If corrected, measure the bearing oil clearance of the corrected main journal and/or pin journal. Then
select the main bearing and/or connecting rod bearing. Refer to EM-264, "
MAIN BEARING OIL CLEAR-
ANCE" and/or EM-263, "CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE" .
CRANKSHAFT RUNOUT

Place V-block on precise flat table, and support the journals on
the both end of crankshaft.

Place dial indicator straight up on the No. 3 journal.

While rotating crankshaft, read the movement of the pointer on
dial indicator. (Total indicator reading)

If it exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft.Standard : 63.940 - 63.964 mm (2.5173 - 2.5183 in) dia.
Standard : 51.956 - 51.974 mm (2.0455 - 2.0462 in) dia.

Limit:
Out-of-round (Difference between “X” and “Y”)
: 0.015 mm (0.0006 in)
Taper (Difference between “A” and “B”)
: 0.010 mm (0.0004 in)

InspectionAES000OP
ALUMINUM WHEEL
1. Check tires for wear and improper inflation.
2. Check wheels for deformation, cracks and other damage. If
deformed, remove wheel and check wheel runout.
a. Remove tire from aluminum wheel and mount on a tire balance
machine.
b. Set dial indicator as shown in the illustration.
STEEL WHEEL
1. Check tires for wear and improper inflation.
2. Check wheels for deformation, cracks and other damage. If
deformed, remove wheel and check wheel runout.
a. Remove tire from steel wheel and mount wheel on a tire balance
machine.
b. Set two dial indicators as shown in the illustration.
c. Set each dial indicator to 0.
d. Rotate wheel and check dial indicators at several points around
the circumference of the wheel.
e. Calculate runout at each point as shown below.
f. Select maximum positive runout value and the maximum nega-
tive value.
Add the two values to determine total runout.
In case a positive or negative value is not available, use the
maximum value (negative or positive) for total runout.
If the total runout value exceeds the limit, replace steel wheel.Wheel runout (Dial indicator value):
Refer to WT-33, "
