Engine
Checking the opening clearance (Sa) of the intake/exhaust valves
To check the valve opening clearance (Sa), insert the blade of a feeler gauge between the opening rocker (C) and the shim (3).
Notes
While inserting the blade of the feeler gauge to check the clearance, apply gentle leverage to overcome the force of the closing
rocker spring and thus eliminate any play in the rocker mechanism: then check that the shim can rotate freely.
The clearance values must be within the specified limits (Sect. C 1.1, Timing system/valves).
If they are not, remove the opening shim (3), as described in the paragraph “Valve disassembly” Removal of the rocker arms,
shims and valves”, Sect. N 4.4, and replace it with a shim of appropriate thickness to obtain the specified clearance.
Notes
Opening rocker arm shims measuring 1.8 to 3.45 are available as replacement parts: each shim is marked with its size.
