INSPECTION
NOTE:
Perform the following inspection after removal, installation or replacement of camshaft or valve-related parts,
or if there are unusual engine conditions due to changes in valve clearance over time (starting, idling, and/or
noise).
1. Warm up the engine. Then stop the engine.
2. Remove the engine room cover. Refer to EM-24, "
Removal and Installation".
3. Remove the air cleaner and air duct assembly. Refer to EM-25, "
Removal and Installation".
4. Remove the RH bank and LH bank rocker covers using power tool. Refer to EM-38, "
Removal and Instal-
lation".
5. Turn the crankshaft pulley in the normal direction (clockwise when viewed from engine front) to align TDC identification notch
(without paint mark) with timing indicator.
6. At this time, make sure both the intake and exhaust cam noses of No. 1 cylinder (top front on LH bank) face outside.
• If they do not face outside, turn crankshaft pulley once more.

CAUTION:
If the inspection was carried out with a cold engine, make
sure the values with a fully warmed up engine are still
within specifications.

tion of No. 1 cylinder compression TDC) to measure the intake
and exhaust valve clearances of No. 6 cylinder and the exhaust

• K: No. 3 cylinder
• L: No. 5 cylinder
• M: No. 7 cylinder
11. If out of specifications, adjust as necessary.
ADJUSTMENT
NOTE:
• Perform adjustment depending on the selected head thickness of the valve lifter.
• The specified valve lifter thickness is the dimension at normal temperatures. Ignore dimensional differences
caused by temperature. Us e the specifications for hot engine condition to adjust.
1. Remove the camshaft. Refer to EM-53, "
Removal and Installation".
2. Remove the valve lifters at the locations that are out of specification.
3. Measure the center thickness of the removed valve lifters using suitable tool.
4. Use the equation below to calculate the valve lifter thickness for replacement.
• Valve lifter thickness calculation:Thickness of replacement valve lifter = t1+ (C1 - C2)
t1 = Thickness of removed valve lifter
C1 = Measured valve clearance
C2= Standard valve clearance:
• Thickness of a new valve lifter can be identified by stamp marks on the reverse side (inside the cylinder).
Stamp mark N788 indicates 7.88 mm (0.3102 in) in thickness.
• Available thickness of valve lifter: 25 sizes with range 7.88 to 8.36 mm (0.3102 to 0.3291 in) in steps of 0.02 mm (0.0008 in)
(when manufactured at factory). Refer to EM-108, "
Standard
and Limit".
5. Install the selected valve lifter.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels incl uding engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-12, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leak- age at connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, che ck again for fuel leakage at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids including
engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec-
ified level, if necessary.
